这里报告的研究考虑了儿童行为问题、养育压力和母亲能力感之间关联的性质。七十二名养母报告了她们领养孩子的行为问题、她们自己的养育压力和能力感。研究发现，养育压力可以调节儿童的注意力问题和母亲的能力感之间的关系。当孩子表现出更高程度的注意力问题时，他们的母亲会感到更大的压力。反过来，当母亲经历更多的养育压力时，她们会觉得自己作为父母的能力下降。养育压力调节了孩子的内化行为和母亲的能力感之间的联系。当母亲报告养育压力较大时，孩子的内化行为与母亲的能力感之间的负相关关系比母亲报告养育压力较小时更强。
The study reported here considered the nature of associations among children's behavior problems, parenting stress, and mothers' feelings of competence. Seventy-two adoptive mothers reported on their adopted children's behavior problems, their own parenting stress, and feelings of competence. Parenting stress was found to mediate the association between children's attention problems and mothers' feelings of competence. When children exhibited higher levels of attention problems, their mothers felt more stress. In turn, when mothers experienced more parenting stress, they felt less competent as parents. Parenting stress moderated the association between children's internalizing behavior and mothers' feelings of competence. A negative relationship between children's internalizing behavior and mothers' feelings of competence was stronger when mothers reported more parenting stress than when they reported less parenting stress.
