“…The results of the present study do not only corroborate the consistent conclusions drew from previous studies around the globe according to which objective sociodemographic characteristics account for a low amount of explained variance in parental burnout (Arikan et al, 2020;Gannagé et al, 2020;Matias et al, 2020;Mousavi et al, 2020;Roskam et al, 2021;Stănculescu et al, 2020;Szczygieł et al, 2020), but they also show that, within a context of lockdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic, these objective sociodemographic characteristics continue to have a little predictive power.…”

“…Yet, counter-intuitively, objective sociodemographic factors only explain a small proportion of variance in parental burnout. This has been consistently demonstrated across independent studies which rely on large samples of participants originating from different cultures around the globe (Arikan et al, 2020;Gannagé et al, 2020;Matias et al, 2020;Mikolajczak, Brianda, et al, 2018;Mikolajczak, Raes, et al, 2018;Mousavi et al, 2020;Roskam et al, 2021;Stănculescu et al, 2020;Szczygieł et al, 2020).…”

Counter-intuitively, sociodemographic characteristics account for a small proportion of explained variance in parental burnout. The present study conducted during the Covid-19 pandemic asks whether (i) sociodemographic characteristics are more predictive of parental burnout than usual in a situation of lockdown, (ii) situational factors, that is, the specific restrictive living conditions inherent in the context of lockdown, predict parental burnout better than sociodemographic characteristics do, and (iii) the impact of both sociodemographic and situational factors is moderated or mediated by the parents’ subjective perception of the impact that the health crisis has had on their parenting circumstances. Results show that, within the context of lockdown, both sociodemographic and situational factors explain a negligible proportion of variance in parental burnout. By contrast, parents’ cognitive appraisals of their parenthood within the context of the health crisis were found to play both a crucial mediating and moderating role in the prediction of parental burnout.

“…The number of men involved in childcare was a protective factor against mothers’ burnout, as was living in a more prosperous neighborhood. The sociodemographic variables accounted for 2.06% of the variance within countries, which is in line with previous results of independent studies using large samples of participants originating from different cultures around the globe (e.g., Arikan et al, 2020; Gannagé et al, 2020; Matias et al, 2020; Mikolajczak et al, 2018; Mousavi et al, 2020; Stănculescu et al, 2020; Szczygieł et al, 2020). All of these report that sociodemographic characteristics account for a small proportion of explained variance in interindividual differences in parental burnout.…”

In Western countries, recent decades have witnessed a revolution toward gender equality. Inequalities have been greatly reduced in areas such as education or employment. Because inequalities lead to distress, this development has largely benefited women. One notable exception is the realm of parenting, which has remained rife with inequalities even in the most egalitarian countries. We hypothesized that experiencing inequality in parenting when one holds egalitarian values and raising a child in a country characterized by a high level of gender equality in other areas, increases mothers’ psychological distress in the specific area of parenting. Multilevel modeling analyses computed among 11,538 mothers from 40 countries confirmed this prediction: high egalitarian values at the individual level and high gender equality at the societal level are associated with higher burnout levels in mothers. The associations hold beyond differences in sociodemographic characteristics at the individual level and beyond economic disparities at the societal level. These findings show the importance of egalitarian values and gender equality and their paradoxical effect when inequalities are still present in specific areas as parenting. This study reveals the crucial need to act not only at the micro level but also at the macro level to promote gender equality in parenting and prevent parental burnout.

“…The current study's major aim was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Hungarian version of the PBA (PBAHUN) by testing its reliability as well as its factor structure and validity. Previously, several studies (Aunola et al, 2020;Arikan et al, 2020;Gannagé et al, 2020;Matias et al, 2020;Mousavi et al, 2020;Sodi et al, 2020;Stănculescu et al, 2020) confirmed either a fourfactor, firstorder model of the PBA or a second order model, wherein global parental burnout emerged as a secondorder latent factor in addition to the four domainspecific factors. We hypothesized that one of these two factor structures would be replicated in the Hungarian data.…”

Introduction: Parental burnout might take place when excessive demands overwhelm the parents’ resources. Aims: To develop and validate the Hungarian version of the Parental Burnout Assessment (PBA-HUN), an instrument designed to measure parental burnout; and to determine the prevalence of parental burnout in Hungary. Methods: Data were collected via an online survey from parents with at least one child living in the household (N = 1215; 82.6% mothers; Mage = 38.68 years; SDage = 6.27 years). Confirmatory factor analysis was used to investigate the factor structure of the PBA-HUN. Results: The four-factor structure of the original PBA was replicated, confirming the following factors: exhaustion in one’s parental role, contrast with one’s parental role, feelings of being fed up, and emotional distancing from one’s children. A second-order model with a higher-order factor representing overall parental burnout also fit the data well. The internal consistency of both the subscale and total scores was excellent (α ≥ 0.84). Parental burnout had a moderately strong negative correlation with life satisfaction, and weak or moderate positive correlations with perceived stress, depression, vital exhaustion, and COVID-specific perceived stress supporting the construct validity of the PBA-HUN. The prevalence of parental burnout stood at 5.8% in this sample. The weak relationship between PBA-HUN scores and sociodemographic factors was also similar to those found in prior studies. Parental burnout correlated negatively with the number of hours spent sleeping and engaging in spare time activity, respectively. Conclusions: The PBA-HUN is a reliable and valid tool to assess parental burnout in Hungary.
