Study Summary

Poor parenting practices and compromised child self-regulation when a child is 2 ½ - 4 ½ years old are foundational in promoting their later healthy development and adaptive functioning. This project will test whether targeting depressive symptoms with a prenatal preventive intervention prevents disruptions in well-regulated parenting and child self-regulation known to affect families with depressed mothers. This project may have great benefit to society, as preventive interventions delivered prenatally have the potential to influence long-term trajectories of parenting practices and child development which, in turn, can chart a course for future child health and well-being.
