Sexual Lives and Family Function of Women with Family Member with Disability: Educational Status and Income Level

Abstract  

This study was conducted to determine how sexual lives and family functions of women with low educational and income status
who had family members with disability were influenced. The study included subjects with disability comprising 12.29% of Turkish
population who have disabilities. Using the sampling formula in which the size of universe was known, the sample included
the families with 183 children with disability and women. Study was conducted in the center of the province Kayseri with children
with disability in families with low socio–economic status, attending a school and with the families living in a neighborhood
with low socio–economic status. Low income level determined unhealthiness and 56.8% of the participants reported to have problems
in sexual relation. Sexual lives and family functions of women with low educational status and income level were determined
to be negatively more affected because of an additional problem; having a member with disability in the family.
