Notes: Parent status: 1 = having adult children with disabilities, 0 = not having adult children with disabilities. Parent gender: 1 = mother, 0 = father. APOE ɛ4 carrier: 1 = carrier, 0 = non-carrier. Comparison parents were matched on age and gender of parents of children with disabilities (1:6 ratio).
