Breaking cycles of risk: The mitigating role of maternal working memory in associations among socioeconomic status, early caregiving, and children's working memory / Jennifer H. SUOR in Development and Psychopathology, 29-4 (October 2017)

SKIBO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1133-1147 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Previous research has documented socioeconomic-related disparities in children's working memory; however, the putative proximal caregiving mechanisms that underlie these effects are less known. The present study sought to examine whether the effects of early family socioeconomic status on children's working memory were mediated through experiences of caregiving, specifically maternal harsh discipline and responsiveness. Utilizing a psychobiological framework of parenting, the present study also tested whether maternal working memory moderated the initial paths between the family socioeconomic context and maternal harsh discipline and responsiveness in the mediation model. The sample included 185 socioeconomically diverse mother–child dyads assessed when children were 3.5 and 5 years old. Results demonstrated that maternal harsh discipline was a unique mediator of the relation between early experiences of family socioeconomic adversity and lower working memory outcomes in children. Individual differences in maternal working memory emerged as a potent individual difference factor that specifically moderated the mediating influence of harsh discipline within low socioeconomic contexts. The findings have implications for early risk processes underlying deficits in child working memory outcomes and potential targets for parent–child interventions.

The impact of allostatic load on maternal sympathovagal functioning in stressful child contexts: Implications for problematic parenting / Melissa L. STURGE-APPLE in Development and Psychopathology, 23-3 (August 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 23-3 (August 2011) . - p.831-844 Titre : The impact of allostatic load on maternal sympathovagal functioning in stressful child contexts: Implications for problematic parenting Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melissa L. STURGE-APPLE, Auteur ; Michael A. SKIBO, Auteur ; Fred A. ROGOSCH, Auteur ; Zeljko IGNJATOVIC, Auteur ; Wendi HEINZELMAN, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.831-844 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study applies an allostatic load framework to an examination of the relationship between maternal psychosocial risk factors and maladaptive parenting behaviors. Specifically, the implications of low socioeconomic status and maternal depressive symptoms for maternal sympathovagal functioning during young children's distress were examined, as well as whether that functioning was, in turn, associated with maternal insensitivity, hostility, intrusiveness, and disengagement during mother–child dyadic interaction. Consistent with an allostatic framework, three patterns of sympathovagal functioning were expected to emerge: normative arousal, hyperarousal, and hypoarousal profiles. Furthermore, meaningful associations between maternal psychosocial risk factors, maladaptive parenting behaviors, and the three profiles of sympathovagal functioning were anticipated. Participants included 153 mother–toddler dyads recruited proportionately from lower and middle socioeconomic status backgrounds. Mothers’ sympathovagal response to their child's distress was assessed during the Strange Situation paradigm, and mothers’ parenting behavior was assessed during a dyadic free-play interaction. As hypothesized, normative arousal, hyperarousal, and hypoarousal profiles of maternal sympathovagal functioning were identified. Maternal depressive symptomatology predicted the hyperarousal profile, whereas socioeconomic adversity predicted hypoarousal. Moreover, allostatic load profiles were differentially associated with problematic parenting behaviors. These findings underscore the role of physiological dysregulation as a mechanism in the relationship between proximal risk factors and actual maladaptive parenting behaviors.
