Abstract
16 families with minimally brain-injured children and 16 families with normal children were matched on a number of characteristics. The two groups differed in regard to mothers' expectancies for achievement, fathers' rewards for success and punishment for failure, and children's need for achievement. Moreover, parents had a significant influence on their children's achievement motivation but patterns of relationships were not the same for the two groups.Keywords
