Implication

Cross-sectional study assesses caregiver burden and coping strategies in parents of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, highlighting key associations.

Key Points

Parents of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder experience a high caregiver burden, with 62.8% reporting severe levels.
Significant associations were found between caregiver burden and somatic illness (p = 0.03) and having more than two children (p = 0.02).
Emotion-focused coping was the primary strategy among parents, followed by problem-focused coping and social support.
Results emphasize the need for support systems to help alleviate the burden on parents and improve their coping strategies.
