Robinow Syndrome (RS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects individuals by a combination of short-stature, facial malformations, underdeveloped genital, and limb defects. According to the Robinow Syndrome Foundation (2007), there are only about 120 known cases in the United States. Although the syndrome has been extensively studied in terms of the genetic and physical dimensions, there is less research regarding the psychological implications of the syndrome. Therefore, the current study examined the potential psychological implications to address this gap in the literature.
