Résumé
Fragile families are defined as those that include unmarried or romantically unstable parents who have children and are socioeconomically disadvantaged. Mothers in fragile families may experience risk factors that lead to increased depressive symptoms that inhibit their ability to bounce back after stressful events. Risk factors for poorer maternal mental health may include declines in father involvement and a lack of coparenting support. This study examined the connected nature of coparenting and father involvement over time among continuously unmarried mothers from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study. A bidirectional latent growth curve analysis demonstrated that early father involvement was associated with a more gradual decline in coparenting support over the child's first 5 years, while early coparenting support also predicted a slower decline in father involvement over time. Steeper declines in coparenting support and father involvement over time were linked with more maternal depression and lower maternal life satisfaction when their child was nine. Results demonstrate a clear need for targeted intervention with both parents in fragile families to promote involved fathering behavior and enhance coparental relationships. Las familias frágiles se definen como aquellas formadas por padres inestables solteros o románticamente inestables que tienen hijos y son desfavorecidos socioeconómicamente (Carlson & McLanahan, 2010). Las madres de las familias frágiles pueden sufrir factores de riesgo conducentes a mayores síntomas depresivos que inhiben su capacidad de recuperarse después de situaciones estresantes (Kalil & Ryan, 2010). Entre los factores de riesgo de deterioro de la salud mental materna se encuentran la disminución de la participación del padre y la falta de apoyo en la cocrianza. Este estudio analizó la índole asociada de la cocrianza y la participación del padre con el paso del tiempo entre las madres continuamente solteras del estudio sobre las “Familias Frágiles y el Bienestar de los Niños” (Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study). Un análisis bidireccional de la curva de crecimiento latente demostró que la participación inicial del padre estuvo asociada con una disminución más gradual del apoyo en la cocrianza durante los primeros cinco años del niño, mientras que el apoyo inicial en la cocrianza también predijo una disminución más lenta de la participación del padre con el paso del tiempo. Las disminuciones más pronunciadas del apoyo en la cocrianza y de la participación del padre con el paso del tiempo estuvieron ligadas a una mayor depresión materna y a una menor satisfacción materna con la vida cuando su hijo tenía nueve años. Los resultados demuestran una clara necesidad de una intervención orientada a ambos padres de las familias frágiles a fin de promover una conducta participativa del padre y mejorar las relaciones de cocrianza. 家有孩子的家庭里家长没有合法婚姻或情感关系不稳定且社会经济状况低下,这样的家庭都被定义为脆弱家庭(Carlson & McLanahan, 2010).这类家庭中的母亲经历危险性因素而导致抑郁症状有所增加,她们在经历压力事件后的回弹能力受到阻碍。造成母亲方面心理健康状况越来越糟的危险性因素包括父亲方面的投入减少和缺乏共同养育孩子的支持。本研究考察的持续未婚状况下的母亲来自于针对脆弱家庭和该类家庭里孩童健康研究项目中的母亲,旨在研究共同养育和父亲方面在一段时间的投入两者之间的相关联性。双向的潜在成长曲线分析表明,在最初五年内,较早的父亲投入和双方共同养育支持方面有越明显的慢慢下滑趋势相关, 早期双方共同养育支持能预测到一段时间后父亲方面投入减少相对缓慢。父母共同养育支持和父亲隔一段时间后的投入方面出现了更明显的下滑,这和养育孩子到9岁大的时候母亲方面有更多的心理抑郁症状和生活满意度较低有关系 。结果证明有针对性的干预尤其必要,这些措施可以在脆弱家庭中促进父亲积极养育的行为,加强共同养育的关系建设。.
