Parental stress is an important correlate of numerous parenting problems and child outcome. However, measures of parental stress do not always refer to similar concepts. In general, there is wide recognition that, as a stress-related concept, parental stress is anchored in the experience of negative life events (NLEs). Other researchers have defined stress in terms of questionnaire-based subjective measures (SMs). Several studies suggest that the relation between NLEs and SMs varies. Among the possible moderators of this association is the type of SM, participant characteristics, the period of parenthood examined, and the use of prospective or retrospective research designs. The purpose of the present meta-analysis is to provide a better understanding of the relation between parental exposure to NLEs and SMs. Studies published between 1970 and June 2020 were selected using MEDLINE and PSYCINFO. Inclusion criteria required that studies involve parents of 0 to 18-year-old children and report an association between NLEs and SMs. Results for the 31 studies meeting criteria showed a moderate relation between parental NLEs and SMs (d = 0.54***, p < 0.001; Q = 324.10***; k = 31). Moderation analyses revealed that the type of SM, period of parenthood and geographical region moderated effect sizes. The NLE-SM association was greatest for “state” measures of stress, with effect size for “trait” assessments being non-significant. Greater effect size was also found for studies conducted during the prenatal period and in North America. Discussion focuses on defining stress more precisely when addressing the circumstances in which parenting takes place.

接触负面生活事件和父母对压力的主观评价:荟萃分析

父母压力是许多育儿问题和孩子结局的重要关联因素。然而,父母压力的测量并不总是指类似的概念。一般来说,人们普遍认为,作为一个与压力相关的概念,父母压力与消极生活事件 (NLE) 的经历有关。其他研究人员已经根据基于问卷的主观测量 (SM) 来定义压力。一些研究表明,NLE 和 SM 之间的关系各不相同。这种关联的可能调节因素包括 SM 的类型、参与者特征、检查的父母身份时期以及前瞻性或回顾性研究设计的使用。本荟萃分析的目的是更好地理解父母接触 NLE 和 SM 之间的关系。使用 MEDLINE 和 PSYCINFO 选择了 1970 年至 2020 年 6 月期间发表的研究。纳入标准要求研究涉及 0 至 18 岁儿童的父母,并报告 NLE 和 SM 之间的关联。符合标准的 31 项研究的结果显示,父母 NLE 和 SM 之间存在中度相关性(d  = 0.54***,p  < 0.001;Q  = 324.10***;k  = 31)。调节分析表明,SM 的类型、父母的年龄和地理区域调节了效应大小。NLE-SM 关联对于压力的“状态”测量最大,“特质”评估的影响大小不显着。在产前期间和北美进行的研究也发现了更大的效应量。讨论的重点是在解决育儿环境时更准确地定义压力。
