Abstract
Abstract Marital satisfaction is a key variable in disturbing the equilibrium of the family due to behavioural problems of children. 100 mothers of students with Down syndrome (age range of 6-18) from 11 exceptional schools, and also 100 mothers of normal students at three educational levels of primary, secondary and high school (which matched the mothers of Down syndrome regarding education and location) were selected through multistage random sampling method. They completed the Marital Satisfaction questionnaire (Afrooz, 2006) and Children Behaviour Checklist (Achenbuch, 2001). The findings revealed that there was no significant relationship between the marital satisfactions of the two groups. But there was a significant relationship between the internalized and externalized behavioural problems of the two groups.
