“…Our study showed that unplanned and unwanted pregnancies were related to lower maternal sensitivity towards the infant, and there is evidence that such negative effects on the mother-child relationship can persist into adolescence (Barber, Axinn, & Thornton, 1999;Nelson & O'Brien, 2012). In addition, unintended pregnancies have been shown to predict parental relationship instability (Guzzo & Hayford, 2012), maternal depression (Suh, Ma, Dunaway, & Theall, 2016), and parenting stress (Claridge, 2017) which in turn are known risk factors for lower levels of sensitivity (Campbell, Matestic, Von Stauffenberg, Mohan, & Kirchner, 2007;Goldstein, Diener, & Mangelsdorf, 1996;Leerkes & Crockenberg, 2002).…”

This article reports on a study of maternal sensitivity in 22 primiparous women and their infants from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Two semi-structured interviews were conducted, as well as videotaped naturalistic home observations of the dyads. A K-means cluster analysis was performed to examine patterns of risk in relation to maternal sensitivity. The results reveal that compared to the 15 mothers with higher sensitivity scores, the 7 mothers with lower sensitivity scores were characterized by lower educational levels, lower income, lower age, living in a slum, unplanned and unwanted pregnancies, and later onset of prenatal care. Whether father was resident did not appear to distinguish between the lower and higher sensitivity groups. The article concludes that the patterns of social-contextual risk for Brazilian mothers showing less sensitive caregiving to their infants provide a clear direction for future research in this cultural context.

This paper reports on a study of maternal sensitivity in 22 primiparous women and their infants from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. A semistructured interview was conducted about sociodemographic risk, as and videotaped home observations to assess maternal sensitivity, and its relation with warmth, verbal and physical engagement, and camera awareness. A K-means cluster analysis was performed to examine patterns of risk in relation to maternal sensitivity. Compared to the 15 mothers with higher sensitivity scores, the seven mothers with lower sensitivity scores were characterized by lower educational levels, lower income, lower age, living in a slum, unplanned and unwanted pregnancies, and later onset of prenatal care. Whether father was resident did not appear to distinguish between the lower and higher sensitivity groups. The pattern of social-contextual risk for Brazilian mothers showing less sensitive caregiving to their infants provide a clear direction for future research in this cultural context.

“…The absence of marriages of couples and the absence of marriage partners are associated with increased mental disorders. 32 The high levels of marriage in this study show that the pregnancies resulted from stable relationships. This then increased levels of wanted pregnancies and also reduced the risk of psychiatric diseases caused by unwanted pregnancies.…”

Objectives: Pregnancy in adolescence may involve more psychological problems and socioeconomic difficulties compared to pregnancies in adulthood. The purpose of this study was to identify socioeconomic characteristics and psychological problems that may give rise to such difficulties. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was performed with pregnant women presented to the Istanbul Bakırköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Department. The study group consisted of 85 pregnant adolescents aged 13-19 and the control group consisted of 50 pregnant adults aged 20 or over. Subjects were evaluated by face-to-face interviews using an information form prepared by specialist psychiatrists. Results:The study group and their partners had lower levels of education compared to the control group. The members of the study group had more siblings than the control group. Adolescent pregnants were found to be as ready for motherhood as adults and desire to become pregnant as much as adult pregnants. There was no significant difference between the control group and the study group in terms of suicidal ideation and suicide attempt. The study group described no increase in psychological problems and difficulties during pregnancy. Indeed, periods of intense unease and distress during pregnancy were significantly less than the control group. Conclusion: Adolescent pregnancies are affected by large families and lower levels of education. Contrary to expectation, pregnant adolescents in Turkey reported no greater incidence of psychological problems. This may be due to a sociocultural perception of the functional value of motherhood in the country and to a positive attitude towards adolescent pregnancies. Key words: Adolescent pregnancy, risk factors, family characteristics, education Öz Amaç: Adölesan dönemde yaşanan gebelik yetişkinlik dönemi gebeliklerine oranla daha çok ruhsal soruna ve sosyoekonomik zorluklara sahip olabilir. Çalışmamızın amacı, gebe adölesanlarda bu sorunlara neden olabilecek sosyodemografik özellikleri ve ruhsal sorunları tanımlamaktır. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışmamız İstanbul Bakırköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Kliniği'ne başvurmuş gebeliğe sahip hastalar ile yürütülen vaka-kontrol çalışmasıdır. Çalışma grubu 13-19 yaş aralığında gebeliğine sahip 85 adölesan gebeden, kontrol grubu 20 yaş ve üzeri gebeliğe sahip 50 yetişkin gebeden oluşmaktadır. Katılımcılar psikiyatri uzmanları tarafından hazırlanmış bilgi formu ile karşılıklı görüşmeler yapılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışma grubunun ve eşlerinin kontrol grubuna kıyasla daha düşük eğitim düzeyine sahip olduğu görüldü. Çalışma grubunun kontrol grubundan daha fazla sayıda kardeşe sahip olduğu saptandı. Adölesan gebelerin kendilerini erişkin gebeler kadar anneliğe hazır hissettikleri ve erişkin gebeler kadar gebeliği arzu ettikleri saptandı. Kontrol grubu ile çalışma grubu arasında intihar düşüncesi ve intihar girişimi açısından anlamlı fark saptanmadı. Çalış...
