Examining Associations Between Mothers' Early Adversity, Depression And Maternal Sensitivity, Rossana Bisceglia, Greg Moran, Jennifer Jenkins

Psychology Presentations

This study tested two models for the indirect influence of mothers’ early adversity on maternal sensitivity:

Model A:

  • Mothers’ appraisal of infant temperament was hypothesized to mediate the influence of mothers’ early adversity and depression on maternal sensitivity
  • There would be no direct influence of maternal depression

Model B:

  • Mothers’ depression was hypothesized to have a direct influence on maternal sensitivity
  • Mothers’ perception of infant temperament would not mediate the influence of maternal depression on maternal sensitivity
