“…The PPP-PV has four subscales, each with 11 items: stress, support received from the partner, support received from other people, and self-esteem, totaling 44 items 16 . The score ranges from 1 to 4 for stress and self-esteem and 1 to 6 for support received from the partner and support received from other people, with high ratings re ecting positive adaptation and low scores, poor adaptation 16 .…”

Background: The Lederman Prenatal Self-Evaluation Questionnaire (PSEQ) is used to assess psychosocial adaptation to pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and maternity. The PSEQ is a tool used in various countries and has been translated into Portuguese; however, it needs to be validated in Brazil. This study aimed to analyze the validity and reliability of the PSEQ for Brazilian pregnant women. Method: This methodological validity study investigated the internal consistency and reliability using Cronbach’s alpha and intraclass correlation coefficient, respectively. Construct validity was assessed using Pearson’s correlation between the domains and confirmatory factor analysis. To assess the concurrent validity, the Pearson’s correlation between the PSEQ and Prenatal Psychosocial Profile-Portuguese Version (PPP-VP) was determined. Results: This study included 399 pregnant women from the northeastern region of Brazil. The internal consistency and reliability of the total PSEQ score were high (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89; intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.95). Validity analysis showed positive and significant correlations between all PSEQ domains, ranging from 0.14 to 0.56. Confirmation factor analysis demonstrated the following values of goodness of fit: RMSEA = 0.05, SRMR = 0.08, CFI = 0.61, x²/df = 1.77. The discriminant and concurrent validities of the PSEQ were confirmed. The level of significance was set at 5%. Conclusions: The Portuguese version of the PSEQ has adequate psychometric properties and is a valid and reliable tool to evaluate the psychosocial adaptation to pregnancy in Brazilian pregnant women.

Objective: To identify factors related to parental stress of women during pregnancy and the child’s first month of life. Method: Prospective longitudinal study in two stages. Analysis of home interviews with 121 participants, Gestational Stress Scale, and Parental Stress Scale. Fisher’s exact test, Spearman’s correlation, and linear and logistic multivariate regression were applied, with p < 0.05. Results: Most of the participants were between 18 and 35 years old, had 11 to 13 years of education, had no paid work, had a partner, usually the child’s father, planned pregnancy, were multiparous, and underwent prenatal care. During pregnancy, 67.8% had stress. In the first month after the child’s birth, most had low parental stress (52.1%). High parental stress correlated with some gestational stress. Planning pregnancy decreased parental stress. Conclusion: Gestational and parental stress in the child’s first month of life were correlated and pregnancy planning was a factor that reduced stress levels. Timely actions to reduce parental stress are essential for parenting and the child’s overall health.
