The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has brought immense psychological pressure and disruptions to daily life for all individuals, and particularly children, parents, and families. Despite these difficulties, parents are able to show resilience through adaptive coping and positive parenting behaviors. Although there is robust research on resilience in children, very little research has tested predictors of parental resilience. The present study presents descriptive information about mothers' pandemic-related stressors and positive changes and then tests whether prepandemic maternal well-being and child effortful control predicted mothers' resilient parental outcomes (positive behavior and coping) through the mediators of maternal self-compassion, adherence to family routines, and child coping. The sample comprised 95 mothers (95.38% European American, 3.2% African American, and 1.1% Asian American) with a mean age of 38.21 years (SD = 5.71 years, Range = 25.72-51.60 years) and education ranging from a high school to an advanced degree (M = 16.26 years, SD = 2.28 years, Range = 12-21 years). Results revealed that prepandemic maternal well-being predicted adaptive coping both directly and indirectly through self-compassion. Children's effortful control predicted maternal adaptive coping indirectly through children's own adaptive coping, and predicted mothers' positive parenting behaviors directly. Posthoc models revealed adherence to routines to be a correlate and outcome, rather than predictor, of positive parenting and bidirectional relations between parent and child coping. This study provides evidence for parent, child, and family-level factors related to parental resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).

COVID-19 大流行期间母亲的复原力。


冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行给所有人，特别是儿童、父母和家庭带来了巨大的心理压力和日常生活中断。尽管存在这些困难，父母仍能够通过适应性应对和积极的养育行为表现出韧性。尽管对儿童的复原力有大量研究，但很少有研究测试父母复原力的预测因素。本研究提供了有关母亲与大流行相关的压力源和积极变化的描述性信息，然后测试大流行前母亲的幸福感和孩子的努力控制是否可以通过母亲自我同情的中介来预测母亲的弹性父母结果（积极行为和应对），遵守家庭惯例和儿童应对方式。样本包括 95 名母亲（95.38% 欧洲裔美国人、3.2% 非裔美国人和 1.1% 亚裔美国人），平均年龄为 38.21 岁（SD = 5.71 岁，范围 = 25.72-51.60 岁），教育程度从高中到高级学位（M = 16.26 年，SD = 2.28 年，范围 = 12-21 年）。结果显示，大流行前母亲的幸福感可以通过自我慈悲直接和间接地预测适应性应对。儿童的努力控制通过儿童自身的适应性应对间接预测母亲的适应性应对，并直接预测母亲的积极养育行为。事后模型显示，遵守惯例是积极养育以及父母与孩子应对之间双向关系的相关因素和结果，而不是预测因素。这项研究为 COVID-19 大流行期间与父母复原力相关的父母、儿童和家庭层面的因素提供了证据。 （PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA，保留所有权利）。
