研究人员对 94 名有 2 至 7 岁孩子的被监禁母亲进行了检查，包括与孩子的接触、感知的家庭关系、早期关系断开和创伤的经历以及母亲抑郁症状。定性分析显示，大多数母亲在最初与孩子分离时都会经历强烈的痛苦，尽管目前许多女性以更平衡的方式看待这种情况。定量研究结果表明，儿童探视次数减少以及早期经历的关系断绝和创伤与母亲抑郁症状的升高有关。当母亲与年龄较大的孩子进行更频繁的电话联系时，母子关系会更加积极。此外，与照顾者之间的冲突关系与母亲和孩子之间接触的减少有关。结果强调了被监禁妇女对心理健康服务的需求，并建议旨在增加被监禁母亲与其子女之间接触的干预措施应考虑母亲与照顾者关系的质量。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA，保留所有权利）
Concurrent relations among contact with children, perceived family relationships, early experiences of relationship disconnection and trauma, and maternal depressive symptoms were examined in 94 incarcerated mothers with children between the ages of 2 and 7 years. Qualitative analysis revealed that most mothers experienced intense distress when initially separated from their children, although many women currently viewed the situation in a more balanced way. Quantitative findings indicated that fewer visits from children and early experiences of relationship disconnection and trauma were associated with elevated maternal depressive symptoms. Mother-child relationships were more positive when mothers had more frequent telephone contact with older children. Moreover, conflicted relationships with caregivers related to less contact between mothers and their children. Results highlight the need for mental health services for incarcerated women and suggest that interventions aimed at increasing contact between imprisoned mothers and their children should consider the quality of the mother-caregiver relationship.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
