This study examined the coincidences or similarities of attitudes between mother and father in rearing their handicapped child. The Taken Test of Parental Attitudes toward Child-Rearing (included 10 subscales) was carried out on 800 parents : handicapped child's mothers (200) and fathers (200), and normal child's mothers (200). and fathers (200). The data of the four groups were analyzed separately according to the principal factor method, and the canonical correlation analysis between the attitudes of the father and mother was carried out on the handicapped and normal groups respectively. The calculated three canonical correlation values for normal groups were 0.586, 0.518, and 0.490, significantly. The pattern of structure vectors corresponding to each correlation highly coincided with the factor pattern obtained from factor analysis in both cases of mother and father. In contrast, for the handicapped groups, two correlation coefficients were calculated. Their values were 0.622 and 0.464, significantly, and the pattern of structure vectors did not show any coincidence with the factor patterns obtained from the factor analysis.
