Development of the assessment tool for mothers' anxiety related to the child-rearing during prenatal and postpartum period

本研究旨在发展“母亲教养能力评量工具”，并进行信度与效度检验。原始产前（公关）产后（po.）根据社会支持的概念，我们编制了MCCR量表，由90个项目组成，分为5个因子，因子分析结果表明，前MCCR量表62个项目和后MCCR量表各44个项目分别归入两个MCCR量表的11个因子。PR-MCCR和PO-MCCR的Cronbach α均为0.73，每个子量表的Cronbach α均为0.52 ± 0.88。MCCR与J-STAI的效标关联效度相关系数为-0.66 ~-0.79，对PR、PO分量表的多元回归分析表明R^2> 50%。- 我们认为MCCR的某些信度和效度已经得到充分的验证。我们打算进一步开发MCCR的实际应用。

The purpose of this study was to develop "The Assessment Tool toward Mothers' Competence for Child-Rearing (MCCR)" including the test of the reliability and the validity of the MCCR. The original prenatal (pr.) and postpartum (po.) MCCR developed by us was consisted by 90 items classified in five factors based on the concept of a social support.As the result of the factor analysis, it was shown that 62 items for pr. -MCCR and 44 each for po-MCCR classified in 11 factors for both MCCR. Cronbach's alpha was 0.73 for both pr. - MCCR and po-MCCR, and 0.52〜0.88 for each subscale. It was also shown that correlation coefficient were -0.66 〜 -0.79 between MCCR and J-STAI as the criterion-related validity.It was also identified R^2 : over 50% by the multiple regression analysis for sub-scales of pr. & po. - MCCR toward STAI-S and STAI-T.We consider that some kinds of the reliability and validity for MCCR were adequately identified. We intend to furthermore develop the MCCR toward the practical application.
