目的本研究旨在检验《简短父母教养关系量表》（B-CRS）瑞典语译本在瑞典父亲中的信度和效度。对许多父母来说，过渡到为人父母的阶段是一个充满挑战的时期，但高质量的亲子教育可以促进父母的心理健康、自我效能感、积极的育儿技能和孩子的健康发展。然而，没有一项研究证实了瑞典父母的亲子关系。此外，尚不清楚初产和多产父亲的亲子关系是否不同。方法对170名婴儿父亲进行在线调查，并于6个月后进行随访调查。结果比较初产父亲和多产父亲的t检验显示没有显著差异，因此，这些参与者被分组在一起进行后续分析。这加强了父母之间的关系是一致的，因此反映了对夫妻培养高质量的第一个孩子的重要性。与其他国家的研究一致，本研究与B-CRS具有良好的内部一致性。六个子量表与B-CRS总分高度相关：父母教养协议、伴侣教养的认可、父母教养的亲密、父母支持、父母破坏和冲突暴露。根据B-CRS的衡量，更好的父母教养质量与较低的抑郁症状水平和较高的父子关系水平有关。结论这些结果支持在瑞典使用B-CRS作为一种可靠和有效的亲子关系测量方法。在瑞典未来的新父母经历和适应的研究中，应该更多地考虑共同养育。
Objective This study aims to test the reliability and validity of the Swedish translation of the Brief Coparenting Relationship Scale (B-CRS) among Swedish fathers. Background The transition to parenthood is a challenging period for many parents, but high-quality coparenting can promote parental mental health, self-efficacy, positive parenting skills, and children's healthy development. However, no study has validated a measure of coparenting for Swedish parents. In addition, it is unknown whether primiparous and multiparous fathers' coparenting differs. Method For this pilot study, 170 fathers of infants participated in an online survey and completed a follow-up survey 6 months later. Results t-Tests comparing primiparous and multiparous fathers showed no significant differences, and, therefore, these participants were grouped together for subsequent analyses. This reinforces that the coparenting relationship, is consistent and thus reflects its importance for couples to develop high-quality coparenting with their first child. Consistent with previous research from other countries, this study demonstrates good internal consistency with the B-CRS. Six subscales were highly correlated with the overall B-CRS score: Coparenting Agreement, Endorsement of Partner's Parenting, Coparenting Closeness, Coparenting Support, Coparenting Undermining, and Exposure to Conflict. Better coparenting quality, as measured by the B-CRS, was linked to lower levels of depressive symptoms and higher levels of father-infant bonding. Conclusions These results support the use of the B-CRS in Sweden as a reliable and valid measure of coparenting. Implications Coparenting should be given greater consideration in future studies of new parent experiences and adjustment in Sweden.
