本研究旨在探讨一年后儿童对母亲的内部表征和母亲的养育策略的诊断组差异。母亲-学龄前儿童二对（N= 279）进行了检查。样本包括151名健康儿童，75名抑郁儿童和53名破坏性紊乱的学龄前儿童。在基线时进行麦克阿瑟Story Stem Battery（MSSB）。一年后，母亲的生育策略进行了测量。结果表明，较高的抑郁严重程度与学龄前儿童更多地使用消极和纪律性的母亲表示。更积极的母亲表示，支持母亲往往表示积极的影响1年后。幼儿的消极和纪律性表征与母亲后来的不支持行为和消极情感有关。结果表明，MSSB可能是一个有用的儿童线人的方法来解释抑郁症儿童的内化的关系。
This study examined diagnostic group differences in children's internal representations of their mothers and mothers' parenting strategies I year later. Mother-preschool child dyads (N= 279) were examined. The sample included 151 healthy, 75 depressed, and 53 disruptive disordered preschoolers. The MacArthur Story Stem Battery (MSSB) was administered at baseline. One year later, mothers' caregiving strategies were measured. Results indicated that higher depression severity was associated with preschoolers' greater use of negative and disciplinarian maternal representations. More positive maternal representations had supportive mothers who often expressed positive affect 1 year later. Preschoolers' negative and disciplinarian representations were associated with mothers' later nonsupportive behaviors and negative affect. Results suggest that the MSSB may be a useful child-informant method for interpreting depressed children's internalization of caregiving relationships.
