Abstract

Abstract: The first common reaction in parents who have a retarded child is shock, fear, sadness, disappointment, guilt, rejection or anger. These conditions could potentially lead to psychological problems that can cause depression. There are many factors that can influence depression in biological mothers who have children with mental retardation. This study was aimed to analyze the factors that could influence depression in biological mothers who had children with mental retardation at the Special School of Coaching Disabled Children Foundation Manado. This was a descriptive-analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Data were obtained by using Hamilton Depression Rate Scale (HDRS) questionnaire and socio-demographic questionnaire. There were 17 biological mothers as respondents. The results showed that 11 respondents suffered form depression; 6 respondents (35.3%) with mild depression and 5 respondents (29.4%) with moderate depression. Meanwhile, six respondents (35.3%) had no depression. The factors that could influence depression were as follows: age (P = 0.332), education (P = 0.335), occupation (P = 0.586), marital status, number of children (P = 0.905), gender of children (P = 0.966), and level of mental retardation of the children (P = 0.774). Conclusion: There was no relationship between depression and factors that could influence depression in biological mothers who had children with mental retardation.
