本研究探讨了非裔美国妇女在怀孕期间婴儿父亲参与，抑郁症状和心理健康之间的关系。采用前瞻性研究设计，95名在芝加哥一家医疗中心接受产前护理的非裔美国孕妇在怀孕期间两次完成了关于婴儿父亲参与、抑郁症状和心理健康的自我报告工具;一次在15-25周之间，一次在25-37周之间。80%的妇女报告说，婴儿的父亲在怀孕期间参与了。28%的女性在第一次数据收集时有临床相关的抑郁症状（CES-D评分≥16），25%的女性在第二次数据收集时有临床相关的抑郁症状。与报告在怀孕期间没有父亲参与的女性相比，报告在怀孕期间有父亲参与的女性抑郁症状水平较低，心理健康水平较高。在怀孕期间，父亲的参与很重要;护士应鼓励父亲参加产前检查，并在产前护理期间向父亲提出问题和教育他们了解怀孕过程和程序。
This study examined the relationships among father of the baby involvement during pregnancy, depressive symptoms and psychological well-being in African American women. Using a prospective study design, a sample of 95 pregnant African American women receiving prenatal care at a medical center in Chicago completed the self-report instruments about father of the baby involvement, depressive symptoms, and psychological well-being twice during pregnancy; once at between 15-25 and once between 25-37 weeks. Eighty percent of women reported that the father of the baby was involved during their pregnancy. Twenty-eight percent of women had clinically relevant depressive symptoms (CES-D scores ≥16) at the first data collection and 25% of women had clinically relevant depressive symptoms at the second data collection. Compared with women who reported no father involvement during pregnancy, women who reported father involvement during pregnancy had lower levels of depressive symptoms and higher levels of psychological well-being. Fathers' involvement is important during pregnancy; nurses should encourage fathers to participate at prenatal visits and ask questions and educate fathers on pregnancy process and procedures during prenatal care.
