Abstract
This study aims to explore the relationship between stress coping strategies and family adjustment for mothers of hearing-impaired children. The study sample was chosen randomly from 70 mothers of hearing-impaired children. The result of this study proved a positive and statistically significant relationship between stress coping strategies and some dimensions of family adjustment such as the prevailing pattern of relationships in the family, avoiding family conflicts at a significance level of 0.05, and feeling satisfied and happy among family members at a significance level of 0.01. The finding of this study emphasized that there is no relationship between stress coping strategies and some dimensions of family adjustment such as family's ability to face its problems and family cohesion.
