Abstract
discusses the shift towards the self-management paradigm in rehabilitation for children with physical and developmental disabilities, presenting findings from a mixed-methods study on the type of motivation of parents (N = 239) and therapists (N = 175) for parent self-management. Findings include a significant, but weak association between autonomy support from professionals as perceived by parents and autonomous motivation for self-management. Analyses of open-ended interviews with parents shed light on the concrete forms of support that contribute to skills and confidence needed to take on self-management.
