Abstract

Objective

The high prevalence of peripartum depression (PPD) among mothers of preterm infants concerns health professionals due to its implications for mothers’ and infants’ health. A model for explaining PPD, consisting of four personal resources was examined: locus of control, intolerance to uncertainty, maternal self-efficacy, and quality of the couple relationship.

Design

In one of the largest Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Israel, 129 mothers of 215 preterm infants completed self-report questionnaires regarding their background variables, locus of control, intolerance to uncertainty, maternal self-efficacy and quality of couple relationship.

Main Outcome Measures

PPD symptoms and high risk for diagnosing clinical PPD.

Results

The examined personal resources explained 43.9% of the variance in PPD symptoms. Intolerance to uncertainty was positively associated with PPD symptoms, while internal locus of control, high levels of maternal self-efficacy, and high quality of couple relationships were found to be negatively associated with PPD symptoms. Additionally, these variables predicted the likelihood for clinical PPD.

Conclusion

The findings indicate a potential likelihood of reducing PPD through healthcare professional interventions, by strengthening personal resources. Associations between personal resources and PPD are discussed in light of the transactional theory of coping.

主要观察指标

PPD 症状和诊断临床 PPD 的高风险。

结果

检查的个人资源解释了 PPD 症状差异的 43.9%。对不确定性的不耐受与 PPD 症状呈正相关,而内部控制点、高水平的母亲自我效能感和高质量的夫妻关系与 PPD 症状呈负相关。此外,这些变量预测了临床 PPD 的可能性。
