“…Although this is the first study to examine the associations between TFR and PAS, we can draw on previous literature, which suggests that the limitations and gender-related biases women experience, particularly in a male-dominated culture, induce anxious symptoms and increase the risk of other mental health issues [ 59 ]. Because of the male-dominated culture in Mexico and the submissive role women and mothers are expected to assume, it will be important to determine how and why adherence to the TFR increases the risk of anxiety in women in Mexico to inform interventions and target specific policies that perpetuate those practices [ 60 ]. An additional necessary step is to determine why the TFR increased the odds of anxiety in pregnancy in this sample of Mexican women.…”

Anxiety during pregnancy and after childbirth can have negative consequences for a woman and her baby. Despite growing interest in the perinatal mental health of Mexican women living in the U.S., perinatal anxiety symptom (PAS) rates and risk factors have yet to be established for women in Mexico. We sought to determine PAS rates and identify risk factors, including the traditional female role (TFR) in a sample of Mexican women. This secondary data analysis is based on 234 Mexican women who participated in a longitudinal study on perinatal depression in Mexico. Anxiety symptoms were assessed in pregnancy and at six weeks postpartum. Rates were determined through frequencies, and multiple logistics regressions were conducted to identify risk factors in the sample. The PAS rate was 21% in pregnancy and 18% postpartum. Stressful life events and depressive symptoms were associated with a higher probability of PAS. Adherence to TFR increased the probability of prenatal anxiety; lower educational attainment and low social support during pregnancy increased the probability of postpartum anxiety. The PAS rates were within the range reported in the literature. The TFR was only associated with anxiety in gestation, highlighting the role of this culturally relevant risk factor. Culturally responsive early interventions are therefore required.

“…According to some authors, poverty can be considered as a form of structural or indirect violence, and manifests itself as an unequal distribution of power and, therefore, as different life opportunities. Sometimes, situations of structural poverty make use of this type of structural violence, that is, of those cultural institutions-among which gender would also be found-to justify it, and even conceive it as inevitable [30][31][32]. Regarding the concept of extreme poverty, it is interpreted as a condition that prevents individuals from participating in the economic reality; on the other hand, it is understood that this condition prevents extreme, which implies malnutrition and hunger, and prevents the proposal of any more life projects beyond survival [33][34][35].…”

The Role of Women in a Family Economy. A Bibliometric Analysis in Contexts of Poverty

et al. 2020

The concept of family economy in the context of extreme poverty is of interest when it comes to analyzing the strategies displayed to prevent or reduce the effects of this situation of exclusion. Gender roles in the nucleus of the family institution will indicate the distribution of these tasks, so that we can understand, in the case of the role of women, the specific weight of their actions in this scenario. For this work, an investigation of our object of study was carried out for the period 1968–2019. A bibliometric analysis of 2182 articles was carried out in which the final versions of articles, books, and book chapters whose subject matter was related to the categories of family economy and poverty were included. The most productive journal was the Journal of Development Economics, while World Economies was the most cited. The authors with the most articles were Ravaillon, Sadoulet, and Lanjouw. The most productive institution was the World Bank. The country with the most publications and citations was the United States. Future research should focus on analyzing the role of women within the family economy in the context of poverty. Thus, a line of research is proposed that also includes the proposals from the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals, which means an urgent call for action by all countries.

“…More than half of Mexican women aged 15 years or older are married or cohabitating. 12 However, there has been a notable increase in the share of women aged 15 years or older who are divorced or separated in the past few decades (Navarro, Narro, and Orozco 2014). As a result, the share of female-headed households has increased from 17 percent to 29 percent between 1990 and 2015 (Figure 2.17).…”
