Abstract

Studies relate Maternal-Fetal Attachment (MFA) to delays in child development, however, the relationship with the social-emotional development is still unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the association between MFA and social-emotional development in infants at 3 months old, in a population-based sample in southern Brazil. This was a follow-up study corresponding to second and third wave of a population-based cohort study with pregnant women who were living in Pelotas (Southern Brazil). Social-emotional development was assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development - Third Edition (BSID-III) and MFA was measured with the Maternal-Fetal Attachment Scale (MFAS). The sample consisted of 702 mother-infant dyads. In the adjusted analysis, MFA was a predictor of social-emotional development, even when controlled for sociodemographic, maternal mental health and infant characteristics. Thus, with each increase to one point in the MFA score, there was an increase of β = 0.14, 95% CI [0.05, 0.23] in the social-emotional development score. These findings highlight the importance of MFA in early child development. Thus, infants with positive experiences of affection since the gestational period will be able to develop positive social and emotional health.

3个月大婴儿的母胎依恋和社会情感发展:巴西南部一项基于人群的研究

研究将母胎依恋与儿童发育迟缓联系起来，但其与社会情感发展的关系尚不清楚。因此，本研究的目的是在巴西南部以人群为基础的样本中调查3个月大婴儿MFA与社会情感发展之间的关系。这是一项针对居住在Pelotas(巴西南部)的孕妇的基于人群的队列研究的第二和第三波的随访研究。社会情感发展采用Bayley婴儿发育量表第三版(BSID-III)评估，MFA采用母胎依恋量表(MFAS)测量。样本由702对母子组成。在调整后的分析中，MFA是社会情感发展的预测因子，即使在控制了社会人口统计学、母亲心理健康和婴儿特征的情况下也是如此。因此，MFA得分每增加1分，社交情感发展得分的β = 0.14, 95% CI[0.05, 0.23]增加。这些发现强调了MFA在儿童早期发展中的重要性。因此，从妊娠期开始就有积极情感体验的婴儿将能够发展积极的社会和情感健康。
