Tóm tắt

Nghiên cứu hiện tại đã xem xét mối quan hệ giữa điều kiện làm việc và chất lượng tương tác giữa mẹ và trẻ sơ sinh trong số 65 người mẹ có thu nhập thấp. Giả thuyết được đưa ra rằng các điều kiện công việc khắc nghiệt mà những người mẹ mới phải đối mặt khi trở lại làm việc có trả lương sau khi sinh sẽ làm ảnh hưởng đến chất lượng chăm sóc con cái thông qua việc gia tăng mức độ trầm cảm và lo âu ở mẹ, và rằng các điều kiện làm việc tích cực sẽ nâng cao khả năng làm cha mẹ. Một phần các giả thuyết này đã được hỗ trợ. Những người mẹ báo cáo có nhiều quyền tự chủ hơn tại nơi làm việc ít bị căng thẳng hơn và do đó, họ có khả năng phản ứng tích cực hơn với trẻ sơ sinh. Ngược lại, tình trạng khẩn trương tại nơi làm việc—khi dự đoán gia tăng trầm cảm và lo âu—đã có tác động tiêu cực đến chất lượng chăm sóc con cái trong tương lai. Trái với các giả thuyết, sự hỗ trợ từ người giám sát không làm giảm tác động tiêu cực của các yêu cầu tại nơi làm việc đến sự căng thẳng của mẹ hay khả năng làm cha mẹ. Kết quả cho thấy rằng các điều kiện làm việc lương thấp có ảnh hưởng rõ rệt đến sức khỏe tâm thần của mẹ và khả năng tham gia vào việc chăm sóc con cái nhạy cảm trong giai đoạn chuyển tiếp lên làm cha mẹ.
