Abstract: A questionnaire survey was conducted on 306 parents of children with ASD in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, to investigate the effects of parents’ resilience on emotional and behavioral problems (EBPs) of children with ASD, the mediating role of parenting sense of competence, and the moderating role of self-esteem in the direct and indirect relationship between resilience and EBPs of children with ASD. The results showed that: (1) Resilience negatively directly predict EBPs of children with ASD; (2) Resilience influenced EBPs of children with ASD through the partial mediating effect of parenting sense of competence; (3) The relationship between resilience and parenting sense of competence is moderated by self-esteem, that is, the predictive effect of resilience on parenting sense of competence is greater in the subjects with higher self-esteem level.

Key words: resilience, self-esteem, parenting sense of competence, emotional and behavioral problems, children with autism spectrum disorder
