The aim of this study was to compare the perceived family structure of mothers with a disable boy and mothers with a boy without disabilities upon circumplex model in Tehran in 1390.
Materials And Methods
The present study is a comparative descriptive study. Data were gathered from 100 mothers who had a boy with disability and 100 mothers who had a boy without disability. The participants were included in the study from exceptional and normal elementary governmental schools in Tehran by multi-stage cluster sampling method. Data were collected by a questionnaire, which consist of two parts, demographics variables and Family Adaptability Cohesion Evaluation Scale (FACES III) (Olson 1986). This questionnaire has acceptable validity and reliability. This scale position the families in three type of family structures balanced, middle range and unbalanced. Data were analyzed by SPSS 16 and descriptive and analytics methods such as t- test and chi square.
Findings

Mothers with disable boy perceived their family structures balance and middle range less than and perceived their family structure unbalance more than the other group. Perceived family structure in two groups were not statistical significant (p>0/05).
