“…In studies with breast cancer patients and postpartum women, age was significantly associated with self-efficacy. 26–29 This study also showed concordance result that age was a significant predictor of self-efficacy. It is considered that people at older age have experienced diverse situations that expanded the scope of their understanding, and it caused positive effect on self-efficacy.…”

This study describes levels of role strain, diabetes mellitus (DM)–related self-efficacy, depression, and social support in middle-aged Korean women with type 2 DM. Using a cross-sectional correlational survey design, we examined the relationships among these constructs in a purposive sample of 154 Korean women (40–65 years old) residing in Cheon-An, a midsized city in South Korea, who had had a diagnosis of type 2 DM for 6 or more months. Our findings indicated that significant numbers of these women are experiencing significant role strain (52.43 [SD, 8.81]) and are at risk for clinical depression (30%). In bivariate analysis, the level of role strain was negatively associated with diabetes self-efficacy (r = −0.27, P < .01), whereas social support was positively associated with diabetes self-efficacy (r = 0.22, P < .05). A multivariate analysis confirmed that social role strain (β = −.33, P = .00), social support (β = 0.19, P = .05), and age (β = 0.19 P = .03) were statistically significant predictors of DM-related self-efficacy. These findings highlight the importance of social role strain in managing DM and point to the need for appropriate interventions that incorporate the ways to relieve the role strain experienced by this highly vulnerable population.

“…An important finding from Keen et al's study was that parents who received additional support (in the form of a two-day parent group workshop and a series of ten home based consultations), compared to those who received information only, were more likely to achieve a reduction in parenting stress and an increase in their sense of PSE. These findings are consistent with both selfefficacy theory and previous PSE research, which has found positive predictive relations between parental perceptions of support in their parenting role and their perceptions of PSE (Bandura, 1997;Bryanton, Gagnon, Hatem, & Johnston, 2008;Cutrona & Troutman, 1986;Weiss, 2002). However, not all support is equally effective, and the support that parents receive from formal professional services has been found to have less influence on their sense of PSE than support they receive from informal sources, such as family and friends (Benson, 2006;Dunn, Burbine, Bowers, & Tantleff-Dunn, 2001;Ekas, Lickenbrock, & Whitman, 2010;Rodrigue, Morgan, & Geffken, 1992;Saloviita, Italinna, & Leinonen, 2003).…”

SYNOPSISObjective. Coparenting quality has been linked to both parenting stress and parenting self-efficacy in families of typically developing children, but little is known about relations between these factors in families where there is a child with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study employed structural equation modeling to explore relations among coparenting quality, autism-specific parenting self-efficacy, and parenting stress in mothers and fathers of children with an ASD. Design. A cohort of biological mothers (n = 80) and fathers (n = 72) who were caring for their young child (age < 13) with a diagnosed ASD self-completed validated surveys assessing parenting stress, coparenting quality, and autism-specific parenting self-efficacy. Results. Both mothers and fathers reported high and similar levels of parenting stress which shared predictive relations with both coparenting quality and autism-specific parenting self-efficacy. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that the relations between perceptions of autism-specific parenting self-efficacy and parenting stress were mediated by coparenting quality. Conclusion. Coparenting quality shares an important relation with parenting stress in both mothers and fathers of children with an ASD, and enhanced perceptions of autism-specific parenting self-efficacy are unlikely to influence parenting stress when parents experience poor quality coparenting.

Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the types of soothing behaviors used by mothers and fathers of infants, differences in use trajectories over time, and associated parenting outcomes. Methods Longitudinal study of 241 families expecting their second child. Data were collected at 1, 4 and 8 postnatal months and included measures of parental soothing techniques, involvement in soothing, distress in response to infant crying, and parenting self-efficacy. Results Average number of soothing techniques used was 7.7 for mothers and 5.9 for fathers. Soothing frequency decreased over time and change patterns of soothing differed over time by gender. In couples who shared responsibility for soothing fathers felt more efficacious in parenting and mothers were less upset by infant crying. Discussion Clinicians are encouraged to support fathers’ engagement in infant soothing, to facilitate the development of fathers’ parenting confidence, and to promote fathers’ involvement in children’s health and healthcare.
