The sibling's perspective: experiences of having a sibling with a learning disability and behaviour described as challenging

Purpose: Siblings of individuals with disabilities provide the most long-term care for an individual with disabilities, yet research on their experiences is limited. A majority of previous research focuses on young siblings from a parent's viewpoint. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of having a sibling with a disability and behaviour described as challenging from adult siblings' perspectives.
