Depression among 148 Latina women who have children with
mental retardation
was examined. Results showed that their depressive symptomatology was elevated, with almost half reporting negative experiences in excess of a commonly used cut-off for the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Scale (CES-D). Depression scores related to variables pertaining to the child, mother's health and level of acculturation, and aspects of stress and coping. When mothers were categorized in three groups by
CES
-D scores, discriminant analysis correctly classified 84% of the low and high group mothers. High
CES
-D membership was predicted by mothers' reporting more family problems, worse health, fewer interactions with English-speaking persons in their daily lives, and more negative feelings about parenting their child with
mental retardation
