母亲抑郁对儿童的心理结果，包括抑郁症状产生有害影响。然而，对这些儿童的保护因素的研究有限，对非洲裔美国人的研究更少。本研究的目的是研究积极的育儿技巧对儿童抑郁症的影响，以及社会技能和亲属关系支持对母亲患有抑郁症和低收入的非裔美国儿童的潜在保护作用。非裔美国母亲（n = 77）在过去一年中诊断为抑郁症，她们的一个孩子（8-14岁）在横断面设计中完成了积极育儿技能、社交技能、亲属关系支持和抑郁的自我报告测量。回归分析表明，积极父母教养技能和儿童社交技能对儿童抑郁症状有显著的交互作用。具体而言，父母报告的儿童社交技能与暴露于较差父母技能的儿童抑郁症状呈负相关；然而，这种关联对于受到更积极、更投入的父母教育的孩子来说并不显著。亲属关系支持没有显示出调节作用，尽管母亲抑郁严重程度越大，儿童报告的亲属关系支持越多。该研究结果对发展对母亲抑郁家庭的干预措施具有启示意义。特别是，育儿和儿童社交技能是预防非裔美国青年抑郁症的潜在干预领域。
Maternal depression has a deleterious impact on child psychological outcomes, including depression symptoms. However, there is limited research on the protective factors for these children and even less for African Americans. The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of positive parenting skills on child depression and the potential protective effects of social skills and kinship support among African American children whose mothers are depressed and low-income. African American mothers (n = 77) with a past year diagnosis of a depressive disorder and one of their children (ages 8–14) completed self-report measures of positive parenting skills, social skills, kinship support, and depression in a cross-sectional design. Regression analyses demonstrated that there was a significant interaction effect of positive parenting skills and child social skills on child depression symptoms. Specifically, parent report of child social skills was negatively associated with child depression symptoms for children exposed to poorer parenting skills; however, this association was not significant for children exposed to more positive and involved parenting. Kinship support did not show a moderating effect, although greater maternal depression severity was correlated with more child-reported kinship support. The study findings have implications for developing interventions for families with maternal depression. In particular, parenting and child social skills are potential areas for intervention to prevent depression among African American youth.
