PENGARUH DUKUNGAN SOSIAL DAN KECERDASAN EMOSI DENGAN RESILIENSI IBU MENGASUH ANAK AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER (ASD)

Every mother certainly hopes to have a healthy and normal child both physically and psychologically. However, not all children can grow normally like other children, for example, children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Mothers who have ASD children certainly have different ways of parenting and caring for children because special treatment is needed. This can certainly be a concern for mothers and lead to stress. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of social support on resilience, the effect of emotional intelligence on resilience, and the effect of social support and emotional intelligence on resilience simultaneously in mothers who care for ASD children. This study used a quantitative approach and the number of subjects was 106 people. The instruments used were the Multidimesional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), Wong Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS), and Connor Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC 25). The data analysis process uses multiple linear regression tests. The results showed 1) There is no significant influence between social support on resilience (β = -0.056, p > 0.01), 2) There is a significant influence between emotional intelligence on resilience (β = 0.911, p < 0.01), 3) There is a simultaneous influence between social support and emotional intelligence on the resilience of mothers with ASD children (F = 172.779, p < 0,01, R2 = 77%)
