“…Evidence shows that depressed mothers are less sensitive towards their babies (Murray et al, 1996;Steadman et al, 2007), being more intrusive or withdrawn (Black et al, 2007;Field, Hernandez-Reif & Diego, 2006;Herrera, Reissland & Shephard, 2004;) and less accurate in interpreting their baby's emotions (Broth, Goodman, Hall & Raynor, 2004). Similarly paternal depression has been associated with a less optimal father -infant relationship (Field, Hossain & Malphurs, 1999;Field, 2010; for a review, see Wilson & Durbin, 2010) with examples of less involvement with their child (Roggman, Boyce, Cook & Cook, 2002). Also, maternal depression has been shown to indirectly influence the father-infant interaction negatively (Bradley & Slade, 2011;Goodman, 2008).…”

“…Parental mental health difficulties may influence an infant's environment during a critical period of child development (Cohn, Campbell, Matias, & Hopkins, 1990;Field, Hossain, & Malphurs, 1999;Ramchandani and Psychogiou, 2009). Only a small body of research has explored the potential impact of maternal postnatal posttraumatic stress on the infant and the parent-child relationship.…”

“…Men's recollections of their own childhood relationships are correlated with their paternal sensitivity: Researchers have shown that men who reported loving and secure relationships with their parents were more sensitive and involved than fathers with less positive memories (Cowan, Cohn, Cowan, & Pearson, 1996). Men's perceived psychological well-being is also related to their paternal sensitivity (Broom, 1994), and some research suggests that depressed fathers are less 'intrusive' in their interactional styles with one-year-olds (McElwain & Volling, 1999; for contradictory evidence see Field, Hossain, & Malphurs, 1999). Men appear to react to the needs of their infants and partners: When mothers are depressed postnatally, infants have more positive interactions with their non-depressed fathers (Hossain, Field, Gonzalez, Malphurs, & Del Valle, 1994).…”
