Abstract

Objective. Both parents may report high levels of stress during the perinatal period with possible negative consequences for parental well-being and child development. Parental sense of efficacy moderates the effect of stress. To date, no studies have assessed links between parental stress and mother-father-infant interactions in terms of family alliance and the extent to which each parent’s sense of efficacy moderates these links. Design. In this study, 65 dual-parent families answered a questionnaire about parental stress between 36 and 38 weeks of pregnancy and at 3 months after birth. Families were also observed while playing with their 3-month-old infant in the Lausanne Trilogue Play, and they completed a questionnaire about parental efficacy. Results. Structural equation modeling analyses showed that higher maternal or paternal postnatal stress has a direct link with higher family alliance and the links between stress and family alliance are moderated by complex interaction effects between maternal and paternal senses of efficacy. Conclusions. This study shows the necessity of considering the interaction between the senses of self-efficacy of both parents as moderators of parenting stress.

父母效能感的相互作用调节3月龄围产期父母压力与家庭联盟的关系

目标。在围产期，父母双方都可能报告高水平的压力，这可能对父母的健康和儿童的发展产生负面影响。父母的效能感可以调节压力的影响。迄今为止，还没有研究从家庭联盟的角度评估父母压力和父母婴儿互动之间的联系，以及每个父母的效能感在多大程度上调节了这些联系。设计。在这项研究中，65个双亲家庭在怀孕36周到38周以及出生后3个月回答了一份关于父母压力的问卷。研究人员还观察了家庭在与3个月大的婴儿在洛桑三段式游戏中玩耍时的情况，并让他们完成一份关于父母效能的问卷。结果。结构方程模型分析表明，较高的母亲或父亲的产后压力与较高的家庭联盟有直接联系，并且压力与家庭联盟之间的联系受到母亲和父亲效能感之间复杂的相互作用的调节。结论。本研究显示，父母双方自我效能感之间的交互作用是育儿压力的调节因素。

期刊介绍： Parenting: Science and Practice strives to promote the exchange of empirical findings, theoretical perspectives, and methodological approaches from all disciplines that help to define and advance theory, research, and practice in parenting, caregiving, and childrearing broadly construed. "Parenting" is interpreted to include biological parents and grandparents, adoptive parents, nonparental caregivers, and others, including infrahuman parents. Articles on parenting itself, antecedents of parenting, parenting effects on parents and on children, the multiple contexts of parenting, and parenting interventions and education are all welcome. The journal brings parenting to science and science to parenting.
