Abstract
|
|
|
|
This study investigated the effects of mothers’ depression and parenting stress on their attachment with their preschool children. The subjects were 110 mothers with children between 3 and 6 years old. Findings suggested, in part, that mother’s education and career, along with family income and caring time with her child, were statistically significant predictors of parenting stress and attachment; mother’s depression and parenting stress were negatively correlated with mother-preschooler attachment; and parent-child attachment explained parenting stress more than mother’s depression. The authors drew conclusions about the best ways parents can support their children’s preschool adjustment.
