The study examined the components of quality of life and coping strategies of mothers of children with visual impairment, hearing impairment, locomotor disability, and intellectual disability. This was a cross-sectional, ex-post facto research study. The statistical population included the mothers of differently abled children. 200 mothers of differently-abled children participated in the study. WHOQOL-BREF and Coping strategies scale was used for data collection. Findings revealed that the quality of life has statistically significant difference among the mothers of visually impaired, hearing-impaired children and mothers of locomotor disabled and intellectually disabled children. The mothers of visually impaired and hearing-impaired children use approach coping more than the mothers of intellectually disabled and locomotor disabled children. The avoidance coping is used more by mothers of locomotor disabled children followed by mothers of intellectually disabled children. Efficient social skill training programs should be provided to enhance their social network and quality of life. The professionals should also assess the needs, potential problems of mothers and integrate effective strategies with the treatment of their children.

Objective This study aimed at investigating motivational factors for improved job satisfaction of teachers working in special schools for hearing impaired children in the Punjab province of Pakistan. Study Design and Sampling Techniques Being qualitative in its nature, this study explored in depth responses of teachers selected purposively. Participants The participants comprised both genders with a teaching experience of more than ten years in any educational institute rendering services for education of hearing impaired students. Data Collection Tools Focus group discussions were arranged and a semi structured interview guide was used to elicit in-depth responses of the participants. These responses were then transcribed and thematically analyzed. Results Gazetted post, high pay scale, recognition, serving persons with disability and less working hours came out as the motivating factors, whereas improper student placement, lack of appreciation from administration, stress level, low job status, low respect level emerged as major job dissatisfying factors for the teachers of children with hearing impairment. Conclusion The stakeholders must be aware of top motivational factors and try to nourish them. Non motivating factors should be minimized for teachers of hearing impaired children for their retention and prosperous organizational atmosphere which will ultimately lead to better student achievement.
