This book was released on 2009-10-28 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depression is a widespread condition affecting approximately 7.5 million parents in the U.S. each year and may be putting at least 15 million children at risk for adverse health outcomes. Based on evidentiary studies, major depression in either parent can interfere with parenting quality and increase the risk of children developing mental, behavioral and social problems. Depression in Parents, Parenting, and Children highlights disparities in the prevalence, identification, treatment, and prevention of parental depression among different sociodemographic populations. It also outlines strategies for effective intervention and identifies the need for a more interdisciplinary approach that takes biological, psychological, behavioral, interpersonal, and social contexts into consideration. A major challenge to the effective management of parental depression is developing a treatment and prevention strategy that can be introduced within a two-generation framework, conducive for parents and their children. Thus far, both the federal and state response to the problem has been fragmented, poorly funded, and lacking proper oversight. This study examines options for widespread implementation of best practices as well as strategies that can be effective in diverse service settings for diverse populations of children and their families. The delivery of adequate screening and successful detection and treatment of a depressive illness and prevention of its effects on parenting and the health of children is a formidable challenge to modern health care systems. This study offers seven solid recommendations designed to increase awareness about and remove barriers to care for both the depressed adult and prevention of effects in the child. The report will be of particular interest to federal health officers, mental and behavioral health providers in diverse parts of health care delivery systems, health policy staff, state legislators, and the general public.

Book excerpt: Families, communities and societies influence children's learning and development in many ways. This is the first handbook devoted to the understanding of the nature of environments in child development. Utilizing Urie Bronfenbrenner's idea of embedded environments, this volume looks at environments from the immediate environment of the family (including fathers, siblings, grandparents and day-care personnel) to the larger environment including schools, neighborhoods, geographic regions, countries and cultures. Understanding these embedded environments and the ways in which they interact is necessary to understand development.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High levels of emotional and behavioral problems have been reported in preschool-aged Mexican-American children, the fastest growing minority population in the US. Preschool-aged children that experience emotional and behavioral problems are more likely to encounter difficulties at home and in school throughout development than children not experiencing these problems. Research suggests early exposure to maternal stress and depression in utero is associated with increased risk for emotional and behavioral problems in young children. This may be particularly salient in vulnerable populations that experience high levels of stressors and maternal depression such as women of Mexican descent. These women not only experience daily life stressors but sociocultural stressors as well, including acculturative stress (i.e., stress associated with the acculturative process), which may affect the developing fetus. Prenatal programming of postnatal offspring psychopathology is poorly understood, especially in the Mexican population. The current study used the fetal programming hypothesis, which states that harmful effects during the prenatal period can affect the developing fetus and have long-term consequences for child development. Preschool age is a particularly important time to assess and treat emotional and behavioral difficulties due to behavioral and neurodevelopmental plasticity at this time. It was hypothesized that 1) prenatal maternal depressive symptoms and acculturative stress would each be associated with depressive symptoms in preschool-aged children, 2) prenatal maternal depressive symptoms and acculturative stress would each be associated with anxiety symptoms in preschool-aged children, 3) prenatal maternal depressive symptoms would moderate the relationship between prenatal maternal acculturative stress and depressive symptoms in preschool-aged children, and 4) prenatal maternal depressive symptoms would moderate the relationship between prenatal maternal acculturative stress and anxiety symptoms in preschool-aged children. Separate linear regressions suggest that fetal exposure to prenatal maternal depressive symptoms, but not acculturative stress, was associated with greater depressive symptoms in preschool-aged children in one of two measures of childhood depression. However, the relationship between prenatal maternal depression and child depressive symptoms was no longer significant once postpartum depression was controlled. There was no relationship between prenatal maternal depression, prenatal maternal acculturative, and child anxiety. A moderation analysis showed that prenatal maternal acculturative stress may be indirectly associated with the development of child depressive symptoms via maternal depression, such that children exposed to high levels of maternal acculturative stress and low levels of maternal depression during pregnancy had lower levels of depressive symptoms. The narrow range of child depression scores may have limited the ability of the data to adequately test the hypotheses, but the data suggest that there is unlikely to be a simple relationship between prenatal factors such as maternal depressive symptoms and acculturative stress and the development of depressive symptoms in preschool-aged Mexican-American children, but that early life factors likely play a role.

This book was released on 2008-05-12 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a psychotherapist and educator of future mental health practitioners, I believe this work fills an important gap in reference books for professionals who care for childbearing women. Since the volume provides invaluable neurobiological research on depression and anxiety, I recommend this work to all health and mental health professionals."--Illness, Crisis and Loss Over the past three years, pregnancy related mood disorders have become the focus of health care advocates and legislators alike with subsequent reflection in nationwide media. Statistics on the prevalence of perinatal mood disorders suggest that up to 20% of women experience diagnosable pregnancy related mood disorders. The growing recognition of these common disorders, coupled with an increasing knowledge base about the dire consequences of untreated maternal depression, has propelled this issue to the fore of national public health priorities. This increasing awareness has also resulted in recent legislative and healthcare initiatives to screen, assess, and treat such disorders. On April 13, 2006, Governor Jon S. Corzine (D -NJ) signed a law requiring all new mothers to be educated and screened for postpartum depression. This law is the first of its kind in the country, but many states and federal advocates are proposing similar laws. The motivation for states and the federal government to adopt education and screening program is high and may soon be a federal mandate. But a major barrier to successful implementation of such programs is the lack of available resources to train healthcare professionals in this specialty. This book offers a major resource for healthcare professionals, mental health professionals, and medical, nursing, psychology, and social work students who will be confronting this problem in their practices. The contributions, by renowned experts, fill a glaring gap in the knowledge professionals need in order to successfully manage maternal mental health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human capital development, including both cognitive and non-cognitive skills, at early childhood can have large long-term impacts not only on individual labor market outcomes and socio-economic success but also on economic growth. Studies suggest that parents, especially mothers in single-parent and low-income families, play an important role in developing the skills of their children at different stages of childhood. However, children from disadvantaged environments face many risk factors, such as poverty, parental health problems, and limited parental education. In particular, maternal depression is an "adverse early environment" for child development and is negatively associated with the quality of parenting practices and mother-child relationship. In turn, the lower quality of parenting practices and mother-child relationship might harm children's development. This thesis examines the effect of maternal depression on pre-school children's development in terms of their cognitive abilities and behavioral problems by using longitudinal data from the Fragile Family and Child Well-being Study (FFCWS). By using a family (child-mother) fixed effects (FE) model, we provide new evidence to the literature that maternal depression imposes a big risk for child development in fragile families, which are mainly those unwed parents and their non-marital childbearing. Specifically, maternal depression tends to reduce standardized Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) score by about 16.4 percent of a standard deviation. We also find that maternal depression has a similar adverse effect within non-marital families, but the effect gets more adverse (about 18.5 percent of a standard deviation) within non-marital families with higher poverty level. In addition, we find that maternal depression has a much larger adverse effect on girls (about 23.2 percent of a standard deviation), as well as children whose mothers have an education level of high school or above (about 24.4 percent of a standard deviation). Regarding child's behaviors, maternal depression tends to increase of the child's Anxiety/Depression problems from ages three to five. Specifically, maternal depression tends to increase the Anxiety/Depression Index, on average, by about 20.9 percent of a standard deviation. We also find that maternal depression has a much larger adverse effect (about 31.3% of a standard deviation) on children from households living below the Local Poverty Line (LPL). In addition, we find that maternal depression has a moderately large effect on Black children (about 36.4 percent of a standard deviation), as well as girls (about 30.7 percent of a standard deviation). We find no evidence that maternal depression affects contemporaneous child's Withdrawal behavior, but find weak evidence that maternal depression affects child's Aggression behavior as a whole. The findings in our study have important implications regarding public policies for dealing with the problem of maternal depression and child development within fragile families.

Donahue and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early childhood is a particularly sensitive time for development, and experiences during this time of life have a lasting impact on later development (Shonkoff & Phillips, 2000). As part of these early experiences, mother-child relationships often become important influences on young children’s social-emotional and cognitive development (e.g., Laible & Thompson, 2007; Osofsky & Liebernman, 2011). Similarly, mothers’ mental health can impact their relationships with their children (e.g., Nicol-Harber, Harvey, & Stein, 2007; Stein et al., 2008) and their children’s development (e.g., Grace, Evindar, & Stewart, 2003; Skylerman et al., 2007). The purpose of this study was to explore the influences of postnatal maternal anxiety (PMA) and postnatal maternal depression (PMD) on children’s social-emotional and cognitive development at 24 months of age. In addition, mother-child relationships (MCR) were examined as a potential mediator between mothers’ postnatal symptoms and children’s development. This study analyzed archival data on 395 healthy mother-child dyads resembling the population of Shelby County, Tennessee. The dyads were followed from mothers’ third trimester of pregnancy to their children’s 24th month. Many of the results do not support previous research linking postnatal depressive and anxiety symptoms, mother-child relationships, and children’s development. For example, this study did not find significant relations between postnatal depressive symptoms and mother-child relationships, nor did it find an association between mother-child relationships at 24 months and children’s emotional and behavioral problems. The findings did support previous research indicating that mothers’ postnatal anxiety and depressive symptoms predicted children’s emotional and behavioral problems. In addition, an interesting connection was found between children’s social competence and their cognitive development. The findings’ implications for counseling psychology, future research directions, and study limitations are discussed. .
