Abstract
The article presents the results of testing the hypothesis about the presence of destructive tendencies in the socio-psychological status of mothers in families raising children with visual impairments, as well as about the disharmonious nature of their psychological culture. Mothers from 48 families took part in the experiment. Negative trends such as: excessive importance of the mother’s role in the family circle; estrangement from the spouse; intimacy with the child to the detriment of intimacy with the spouse were found. The following are noted: a high level of psychological culture of mothers in terms of the “strength of aspiration” parameter and an average level in terms of the “degree of their realization” parameter, as well as some contradictions in the indicators of sensitivity, emotional acceptance and behavioral manifestations of mothers in relations with their children, which in general gave reason to define their psychological culture as “disharmonious”.
