ObjectivesThis study tested the mediating effects of mothers’ postnatal depression, mother-to-infant bonding failure, and hostile attributions to children’s behaviors at 1 month postnatal on the relationship between intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy and maternal child abuse at 3 months postnatal.MethodPregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy who visited 1 of 2 antenatal clinics in Tokyo, Japan, were recruited, and asked to complete questionnaires during their pregnancy, and at 1 month and 3 months postnatal, from June 2016 to September 2017. IPV during pregnancy, postnatal depression, mother-to-infant bonding failure, hostile attributions to children’s behaviors, and maternal child abuse were evaluated using the Violence Against Women Screen, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, the Mother-to-Infant Bonding Scale, the Scale of Mother’s Recognition on Child’s Behaviors, and ad hoc questions, respectively.ResultsThe data from 442 participants were used for analyses. The main finding of this study was that hostile attributions to children’s behaviors 1 month after birth have a mediating effect on the relationship between IPV during the pregnancy and maternal child abuse 3 months after birth (indirect effect=. 06, p=. 03). The effects of mother-to-infant bonding failure and postnatal depression were not significant.ConclusionsThis study suggests that health interventions focused on assessing and reducing hostile attributions to children’s behaviors could prevent maternal child abuse in the postnatal period among abused pregnant women.
