Abstract

Maternal postpartum depressive (PPD) symptoms have the potential to negatively impact mother-infant interactions, particularly in populations experiencing contextual stress. We used a resilience perspective to examine maternal perceptions of partner support as a protective factor in the relation between PPD symptoms and mother-infant dyadic reciprocity. Low income, Mexican-origin women (N = 322; M_age = 27.80; 86% born in Mexico) reported depressive symptoms from 6 to 24 weeks postpartum and partner support at 24 weeks postpartum. Mother-infant interactions were recorded and coded for dyadic reciprocity at 24 weeks. Results indicated that partner support moderated the relation between PPD symptoms and dyadic reciprocity, such that higher PPD symptoms were associated with lower dyadic reciprocity only among mothers reporting lower partner support. Our results suggest that partner support is an important source of resilience for Mexican-origin women experiencing PPD symptoms. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).

产后抑郁症状与母婴二元互惠：伴侣支持的调节作用。

产妇产后抑郁（PPD）症状有可能对母婴互动产生负面影响，特别是在经历环境压力的人群中。我们使用弹性的观点来检查母亲的伴侣支持的观念，作为产后抑郁症症状和母婴二元互惠关系的保护因素。低收入、墨西哥裔妇女(N = 322；法师= 27.80；86%出生在墨西哥)报告产后6至24周出现抑郁症状，产后24周出现伴侣支持。在24周时记录母婴互动并对二元互惠进行编码。结果表明，伴侣支持调节了PPD症状与二元互惠之间的关系，例如，只有在报告伴侣支持较低的母亲中，较高的PPD症状与较低的二元互惠相关。我们的研究结果表明，伴侣支持是墨西哥裔女性经历产后抑郁症症状的重要恢复力来源。（PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA，版权所有）。

期刊介绍： Developmental Psychology ® publishes articles that significantly advance knowledge and theory about development across the life span. The journal focuses on seminal empirical contributions. The journal occasionally publishes exceptionally strong scholarly reviews and theoretical or methodological articles. Studies of any aspect of psychological development are appropriate, as are studies of the biological, social, and cultural factors that affect development. The journal welcomes not only laboratory-based experimental studies but studies employing other rigorous methodologies, such as ethnographies, field research, and secondary analyses of large data sets. We especially seek submissions in new areas of inquiry and submissions that will address contradictory findings or controversies in the field as well as the generalizability of extant findings in new populations. Although most articles in this journal address human development, studies of other species are appropriate if they have important implications for human development. Submissions can consist of single manuscripts, proposed sections, or short reports.
