Abstract AR
The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of parents’ satisfaction with special education services for students with learning disabilities (LD), and to highlight differences in parents’ satisfaction levels.
A survey questionnaire was completed by the parents of 491 students with LD at public elementary schools in Riyadh City.
The results indicated that parents of students with LD were satisfied (M=4.04, SD=0.85) with the special education services offered to their children.
Examination of differences in parents’ satisfaction revealed a number of significant differences attributed to social status, academic level, and involvement in the child’s school.
Married parents were more satisfied than widowed parents.
Parents with less than high school education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education.
Parents with high school education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education.
Parents with a bachelor’s degree education were more satisfied than parents with more than a bachelor’s degree education.
Parents who were involved in the child’s school were more satisfied than parents who were not.
Implications for future application and research are outlined.
