Abstract

ABSTRACT Mothers who are intimate partner violence (IPV) survivors are often mandated to parenting services by child protection services (CPS) and/or the courts. Unfortunately, there is limited research regarding the parenting needs and strengths of these system-involved IPV survivors, and existing research tends to rely on self-report parenting data. The purpose of this study was to: (a) assess the feasibility and acceptability of collecting observational data from system-involved mothers who are IPV survivors and have been mandated to a parenting program, (b) assess the feasibility of the Keys to Interactive Parenting Scale (KIPS) in this context, (c) examine the parenting strengths and needs of these IPV survivors, and (d) explore associations between self-report and observational measures of parenting. Among eligible mothers, 49% (n = 25) participated. Observational and self-report data collected at program entry indicated positive parenting. Although associations between KIPS and self-report measures of parenting were low, the KIPS has the potential to be useful tool for assessing parent-child interactions in the context of IPV services.

使用观察方法检查育儿质量和参与CPS和/或法庭的女性伴侣暴力幸存者与其幼儿之间的二元互动

亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)幸存者的母亲通常被儿童保护机构(CPS)和/或法院强制要求提供育儿服务。不幸的是，关于这些系统相关的IPV幸存者的养育需求和优势的研究有限，现有的研究往往依赖于自我报告的养育数据。本研究的目的是:(a)评估从参与系统的IPV幸存者母亲那里收集观察数据的可行性和可接受性，这些母亲是被要求参加一个育儿计划的，(b)评估在这种情况下互动育儿关键量表(KIPS)的可行性，(c)检查这些IPV幸存者的育儿优势和需求，(d)探索自我报告和育儿观察措施之间的联系。在符合条件的母亲中，49% (n = 25)参与。在项目开始时收集的观察和自我报告数据表明，父母是积极的。虽然KIPS和父母自我报告之间的相关性很低，但KIPS有潜力成为评估IPV服务背景下亲子互动的有用工具。
