Titre : Maternal attachment state of mind moderates the impact of postnatal depression on infant attachment Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Catherine A. MCMAHON, Auteur ; Byranne BARNETT, Auteur ; Nicholas M. KOWALENKO, Auteur ; Christopher C. TENNANT, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.660–669 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Attachment-state-of-mind postnatal-depression attachment chronicity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Empirical studies have revealed a significant, but modest association between maternal depression and insecure mother–child attachment. Across studies, however, a substantial number of mothers with depression are able to provide a sensitive caretaking environment for their children. This paper aimed to explore whether a mother's own state of mind regarding attachment moderated the association between postpartum depression and insecure mother–child attachment.
Methods: Mothers (n = 111), mainly middle-class mothers, and their infants participated in a longitudinal study of postnatal depression, maternal attachment state of mind and child attachment. Depression was assessed using a diagnostic interview (at 4 and 12 months) and symptom checklists (at 4, 12 and 15 months). The Adult Attachment Interview was conducted at 12 months and the Strange Situation procedure at 15 months.
Results: Mothers diagnosed as depressed were more likely to have an insecure state of mind regarding attachment. Infants of chronically depressed mothers were more likely to be insecurely attached; however, the relationship between maternal depression and child attachment was moderated by maternal attachment state of mind.
Conclusions: Results are discussed with reference to resiliency factors for women with postnatal depression and implications for intervention.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2005.01547.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=751

Titre : Parental mind-mindedness: Comparing parents’ representations of their children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and siblings Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Sijal ANSARI, Auteur ; Catherine A. MCMAHON, Auteur ; Annie BERNIER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.101491 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Parental mind-mindedness Autism Spectrum Disorder Mentalizing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background While there is growing evidence demonstrating benefits of parent mentalization for child social and emotional development, few studies have examined parent mentalizing in clinical populations. This paper examines mind-mindedness (a parent’s tendency to represent their child in terms of mental states) in a sample of parents with a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). We compared parent mind-mindedness about their child with ASD and a sibling in a similar age-range. We expected parents to use fewer and more negative mind-related descriptors of their child with ASD compared with the sibling. Method Fifty-four parents of children (aged 5–12 years) with ASD completed a survey asking them to “Describe your child” for the child with ASD and a sibling without ASD, with order of presentation randomized. Severity of ASD diagnosis was assessed using DSM-V criteria. Descriptions were coded for reference to child mental states and proportional scores calculated to control for verbosity. Results Parents used significantly fewer mind-related descriptors for their child with ASD compared with the sibling. Differences were moderated by ASD severity, with the largest differences apparent for parents whose child had severe ASD symptoms. Expected differences in negative descriptors were not found, but parents used significantly fewer positive and more neutral (often symptom-related) mind-related descriptors for their child with ASD. Conclusions These findings suggest that parent mentalization may be challenged in relation to children with ASD. Directions for future research and clinical implications are discussed.

Titre : Preschoolers'sleep behaviour: associations with parental hardiness, sleep-related cognitions and bedtime interactions Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nikki JOHNSON, Auteur ; Catherine A. MCMAHON, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.765 - 773 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Preschoolers sleep hardiness bedtime-interactions sleep-related-cognitions parenting sleep-disorders parent–child-interaction Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Childhood sleep problems which are prevalent in Western societies are associated with a wide range of emotional, cognitive and behavioural disturbances. Growing evidence suggests that parents play a pivotal role in children's sleep behaviour and that a parenting style which promotes self-regulation is beneficial. This study tested a unique model that included parental hardiness, sleep-related cognitions, bedtime interactions and child sleep behaviour.
Methods: Parents (N = 110) with a child attending preschool (mean age = 3.81 years, SD = .84) responded to a survey assessing their level of hardiness, sleep-related cognitions, bedtime interactions and their child's sleep behaviour and temperament. Secondary caregivers completed a survey assessing child sleep and temperament, and teachers/childcare workers also reported on child temperament.
Results: In line with previous research, 37% of children in this community sample met criteria for a sleep problem. Regression analyses and structural equation modelling confirmed that low parental hardiness, problematic sleep-related cognitions and a greater number of parental interactions at bedtime significantly predicted child sleep problems, after considering child temperament.
Conclusions: This study's theoretically driven model not only offers an explanation for what contributes to and maintains sleep problems in childhood but also suggests new areas for research. Importantly, the model can also be readily translated into clinical interventions to develop and enhance effective authoritative parenting.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2007.01871.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=541

Titre : A systematic review of emotion regulation in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Sara CIBRALIC, Auteur ; Jane KOHLHOFF, Auteur ; Nancy WALLACE, Auteur ; Catherine A. MCMAHON, Auteur ; Valsamma EAPEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.101422 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder Developmental disability Emotion regulation Co-regulation Extrinsic regulation Intrinsic regulation Toddlers Preschoolers Children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has significant negative impacts on a child’s development as well as their family’s social, emotional, and economic wellbeing. In an effort to better understand the aeitology of ASD and therefore provide interventions for children on the autism spectrum, various factors have been taken into consideration, one of which is emotion regulation (ER) ability. This paper sought to synthesize the current research on ER in children, specifically young children (aged 12–72 months), with ASD to better understand the association between ASD and ER in young children. Method Research databases and reference lists of relevant papers were searched systematically for articles on ASD and ER in young children. Fifteen articles were identified that reported on ER in children with ASD and had participants that fell within the 12–72 month age range. These articles were systematically reviewed. Results Children with ASD were found to have a different repertoire of ER strategies and rely more on others to regulate their emotions than their typically developing peers; ASD symptom severity and executive functioning ability were associated with ER abilities; and treatments incorporating both parents and children were found to improve ER abilities in children. Conclusions Research on ER in young children with ASD is in its infancy with many of the studies reviewed being preliminary in nature. Furthermore, the majority of studies include participants that encompass a broad age range, making it difficult to distinguish the nature and occurrence of ER in toddlers and preschoolers with ASD from ER in older children and adolescence with ASD. Nonetheless, the review provides some insight into the nature of ER in young children with ASD and highlights important directions for future research.

GIBSON, Auteur ; Judy A. UNGERER, Auteur ; Catherine A. MCMAHON, Auteur ; Garth I. LESLIE, Auteur ; Douglas M.

The sample was enrolled during pregnancy as part of a longitudinal study. At 12 months postpartum, security of infant attachment was assessed using the Strange Situation procedure, and mother-child interaction was assessed in a free play context using the Emotional Availability Scales. IVF children demonstrated predominantly secure attachment relationships with their mothers (64.6% IVF, 55.9% controls), and there were no significant between-group differences in the proportion of IVF compared to control group children classified in any of the secure or insecure attachment groups. Furthermore, there were no significant group differences on maternal (sensitivity, structuring, hostility) or child (responsivity, involving) dimensions of interaction during play. The majority of IVF mothers (86%) were sensitive and their infants responsive (91%). Contrary to expectation, mother's ratings of greater anticipated infant difficultness assessed during pregnancy and higher ratings of infant temperament and behaviour difficulty assessed at 4 and 12 months postpartum were associated with secure attachment relationships and more optimal mother-child interaction in both the IVF and control groups.
