      ab: Families of autistic children often have a lower Family Quality of Life (FQOL) compared to families with neurotypical children due to stressors such as emotional, physical, and financial burdens, as well as social isolation. This study aimed to investigate how parent training programs and family-professional partnerships influence FQOL in families of autistic children. A sample of 406 diverse caregivers who completed a survey about their experiences with parent training, satisfaction with their families’ quality of life, and the quality of their partnerships with professionals was analyzed. Regression analysis revealed that contextual fit and family-professional partnerships were positively correlated with higher FQOL scores. Interaction effects showed that the impact of partnerships on FQOL was stronger when caregivers participated in knowledge-focused programs but weaker when they participated in comprehensive programs. These findings highlight the importance of developing contextually appropriate parent training programs, providing necessary information, and fostering strong family-professional partnerships to support FQOL for families of autistic children.
