To determine if parent’s self-efficacy in communicating with their child’s pediatrician is associated with African American mothers’ disclosure of psychosocial concerns during pediatric primary care visits. Self-identified African American mothers (N = 231) of children 2–5 years were recruited from eight urban pediatric primary care practices in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Visits were audio-recorded and parents completed phone surveys within 24 hours. Maternal disclosure of psychosocial issues and self-efficacy in communicating with their child’s provider were measured using the Roter Interactional Analysis System (RIAS) and the Perceived Efficacy in Patient-Physician Interactions (PEPPI) respectively. Thirty-two percent of mothers disclosed psychosocial issues. Mothers who disclosed were more likely to report maximum levels of self-efficacy in communicating with their child’s provider compared to those who did not disclose (50% vs. 35%; p = .02). During visits in which mothers disclosed psychosocial issues, providers were observed to provide more psychosocial information (M = 1.52 vs. 1.08 utterances per minute, p = 0.002) and ask fewer medical questions (M = 1.76 vs. 1.99 utterances per minute, p = 0.05) than during visits in which mothers did not disclose. The association between self-efficacy and disclosure was significant among low-income mothers (OR = 5.62, p < .01), but not higher-income mothers. Findings suggest that efforts to increase parental self-efficacy in communicating with their child’s pediatrician may increase parents’ likelihood of disclosing psychosocial concerns. Such efforts may enhance rates of identifying and addressing psychosocial issues, particularly among lower-income African American patients.
