- Abstract
Subjective well-being (SWB) is a key to a prosperous life. All married couples expect to deliver physically-normal babies. Unfortunately, some families have special need children. In general, the number SWB parents of children with special needs are lower than SWB parents with typical children. Factors affecting SWB parents of children with special needs need to be determined in order to help develop proper strategies to increase the SWB of these factors. This study analyzed the external and internal SWB factors among parents of children with special needs. This Systematic Literature Review (SLR) showed that the internal SWB factors in parents of children with special needs included hope, gratitude, spiritual, emotional control, parenting self-efficacy, resilience, marital status, self-efficacy, mindful parenting, parental assessment and self-compassion. Whereas, external factors included social support, income and family functionality. In regards to the importance of both internal and external factors, parents are expected to have better SWB in caring for their children with special needs.
