“…Unconfident Japanese mothers were less attached to their babies and felt their husbands' help was limited. It has been noted elsewhere that maternal confidence is closely related with self-efficacy, which is a protective mediator of postpartum depression [13]. A recent study in Vietnam revealed a high prevalence of postpartum depression measured by the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale around 1-month postpartum (33% in Vietnam with a cut-off point of 13 or higher [14] versus 18% in Japan with a cut-off point of 9 or higher [15]), arguing for closer consideration of Vietnamese mothers' mental health.…”

Objective: To investigate the confidence women feel about child rearing in Japan and Vietnam. Methods: We conducted a prospective study of 210 Japanese mothers who registered as pregnant in Sukagawa City, Fukushima, and 132 Vietnamese mothers who attended a university hospital in Ho Chi Minh City. Follow-up surveys were conducted via mail approximately 6 weeks after newborn delivery among the Japanese cohort, and at the time of a one-month checkup at the hospital among the Vietnamese cohort. Results: The follow-up rate among these subjects was 67% (N = 140) in Japan and 65% (N = 86) in Vietnam. The proportion of mothers who were not confident about child rearing was 48% (N = 67) in Japan and 63% (N = 54) in Vietnam. In both countries, mothers in the unconfident group reported less happiness and relaxation time with children than mothers in the confident group. Maternal confidence was associated with child rearing experience, although the significance of this factor diminished in a multivariate analysis of the Vietnamese data. While unintended pregnancy and unemployment were related to confidence in child rearing in Japan, educational history was associated with confidence in Vietnam. Conclusion: This exploratory study found a high proportion of Japanese and Vietnamese mothers are not confident in child rearing, which calls attention to this understudied issue of confidence among Asian mothers.

“…Parenting sense of competence is a cognitive and emotional construct that consists in the judgments that parents hold about their abilities to perform parenthood-related tasks (Farkas & Valdés, 2010;Jones & Prinz, 2005;Montigny & Lacharité, 2005). It also encompasses parents' beliefs about their ability to influence their children' s development in a positive manner (Ardelt & Eccles, 2001) and the satisfaction derived from the parenting role (Johnston & Mash, 1989).…”

Introduction: A valid instrument is needed to establish a nursing diagnosis of impaired parenting and to conduct interventions. Objective: The purpose of this study is to validate the nursing diagnosis of impaired parenting using Rasch analysis with primiparous mothers up to24 years of age, during the first year of child rearing, and to compare the results of the clinical validation of that diagnosis using Rasch analysis and Fehring's method to clinically validatenursing diagnosis. Method: This was a cross-sectional study based on Rasch analysis, pursuant to Messick's construct validity guidelines. Results: Twenty-seven items representing 18 parenting-defining characteristics showed content, structural, substantive and generalized validity. Conclusion: Clinically validating nursing diagnosis using Rasch analysis makes it possible to establish dimensional diagnoses with construct validity.

Perceived parental efficacy: concept analysis

Abstract: This conceptual analysis has allowed perceived parental efficacy to be distinguished from parental confidence and parental competence. Both nursing and psychology research, practice and education will benefit from a more precise and delineated concept.
