Are postpartum depressions a mother-infant relationship disorder?

Abstract: The study of postpartum depressions is particularly important when one studies pathogenic influences on child development, because they occur–with a rather high incidence–at the onset of the attachment process. Although the mediating factors responsible for child effects of depression were classically seen as following a deficit model, we suggest that active processes of meaning attribution and of attendant interactive patterns play an important role both in the etiology of depression and in the mediating effe… Show more

“…30 The withdrawn, unresponsive, or negative behavior of a depressed mother early in the infant's life seems to affect maternal-infant attachment 31 and result in fussier infants who vocalize less and make fewer positive facial expressions than infants of mothers who are not depressed. 27,29,[32][33][34] The abnormal patterns of mother-infant interactions associated with maternal depression have been described as a vicious cycle that increases the likelihood of chronic mental health, emotional, and family function problems. 35,36 Children's behavioral difficulties associated with maternal depression may continue through at least ages 4 to 8 years.…”

“…Abidin [16] stated that the high parenting stress negatively influences interactions with children, resulting in inappropriate behavior of the caregiver; and Park & Kwon [17] emphasized that parenting stress is the major variable that influences not only the psychological satisfaction and parenting attitude of parents, but also the development and adaptation of children. In addition, depression of the caregiver is the cause for the caregiver taking a negative parenting style in interactions with children [18], and a study by Marchand & Hock [19], which investigated parental differences in depression, reported that paternal depression has a greater influence on the child's problem behaviors than maternal depression.…”
