Birthing parent depressive symptoms have also been negatively associated with feelings of competence in their role as a parent, which includes decreased feelings of satisfaction and self-efficacy. However, little research has investigated whether decreased parenting sense of competence is one of the mechanisms through which depression influences children's emotional development. We hypothesized that birthing parents with higher postpartum depression scores would report feeling less competent in their role as a parent, and that decreased feelings of competence would negatively impact their child's emotional development. 000009570 540__ $$fCC BY 000009570 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000009570 650__ $$aParenting$$029159 000009570 6531_ $$ainfant sadness 000009570 6531_ $$apostpartum depression 000009570 6531_ $$aemotional development 000009570 6531_ $$aparenting sense of competence scale 000009570 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000009570 692__ $$aDepartment of Psychiatry$$041443 000009570 7001_ $$aMolloy, Kelly R.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009570 7001_ $$aNguyen, Cindy M.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009570 7001_ $$aGustafsson, Hanna C.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009570 7001_ $$aNigg, Joel T.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009570 7001_ $$aSullivan, Elinor L.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009570 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University 000009570 711__ $$d2022 000009570 8564_ $$915a59de8-75aa-4008-a947-fbf863c984d5$$s164570$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9570/files/Nguyen-Cindy-OHSU-ResearchWeek-2022.pdf 000009570 905__ $$a/rest/prod/nk/32/2f/12/nk322f127 000009570 980__ $$aResearch Week
