Objectives: Mindful parenting, measured by the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting scale (IMP), is beneficial for parents and children. However, the IMP has not been validated in English-speaking parents. Further, little is known about whether mindful parenting is similar in parents of children vs. infants, or how it reduces child internalizing problems. We sought to validate the IMP in English-speaking mothers of children and infants, and to examine relationships between the facets of mindful parenting, child internalizing problems and parent variables related to internalizing.Methods: Using confirmatory factor analyses, we examined the fit of various models of mindful parenting in English-speaking community-recruited mothers of children aged 3–18 years (n = 396) and infants aged 0–2 years (n = 320). We used regression analyses to investigate relationships between the facets of mindful parenting, child internalizing problems, and parent variables including parental experiential avoidance, unhelpful beliefs about child anxiety and accommodation of child anxiety.Results: Mindful parenting can be measured in English-speaking mothers, using either a 5- or 6-factor, 29-item version of the IMP. These versions of the IMP operate similarly for mothers of children and infants. Child internalizing problems and related parent variables were best predicted by non-judgmental acceptance of parenting in mothers of children, and emotional self-awareness and non-reactivity in mothers of infants.Conclusions: The IMP is a valid measure of mindful parenting in English-speaking mothers of children and infants. Mindful parenting predicts child internalizing problems and related parent variables, suggesting that mindful parenting programs could benefit families of children with internalizing problems, potentially by reducing parental experiential avoidance, unhelpful beliefs about or accommodation of child anxiety.

Deal with children in adolescence stage, parents often showing impatience behavior, unable to control him/herself, complaining when faced with difficulties in parenting and do not listen attentively toward child’s problems. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of mindful parenting program to improve parenting skills in a positive way. The research method used a quasi-experimental design with measurement technique was Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale. The subjects were 28 parents of students of class VII SMPN 15 Bandung. The results showed that the effect of mindful parenting programs has improved significantly on three skills in aspect of positive parenting included listening attentively, emotional awareness of self and children, and self-regulation in the parenting relationship. But for the other two aspects, namely acceptance of self and children without judgment, and the love of self and children the results are less significant.

Mengasuh anak usia sekolah dasar merupakan salah satu tugas ibu yang penuh tantangan sehingga jika ibu tidak mampu mengatasi tantangan ini, maka ibu rentan mengalami stres pengasuhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji peran mindful parenting terhadap stres pengasuhan pada ibu yang memiliki anak usia sekolah dasar. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain asosiatif. Partisipan penelitian berjumlah 110 ibu berusia 28-46 tahun. Teknik pengambilan data yang digunakan adalah sampling insidental. Alat ukur Parental Stress Scale (PSS) memiliki reliabilitas 0,906 dan digunakan untuk mengukur stres pengasuhan kemudian alat ukur Mindfulness in Parenting Scale (MIPQ) memiliki reliabilitas 0,818 digunakan untuk mengukur mindful parenting. Hipotesa penelitian diuji dengan menggunakan teknik statistik Uji Regresi Linear Sederhana. Hasil uji hipotesa menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peran signifikan mindful parenting terhadap stres pengasuhan. Hasil penelitian ini dapat dijadikan sebagai suatu rujukan untuk mengatasi stres pengasuhan yang dialami oleh ibu yang memiliki anak usia sekolah dasar melalui edukasi masyarakat mengenai peran mindful parenting terhadap stres pengasuhan.

The present study aims to explore the factor structure and psychometric properties of an adapted version of the Portuguese version of the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale for parents of infants aged 0 to 12 months (the IM-P-I). Two studies were conducted. The first study included 560 postpartum mothers and examined the factor structure and internal consistency of the IM-P-I. The second study included 295 postpartum mothers, with the goal of cross-validating the factor structure of the questionnaire and examining its internal consistency and construct validity. In both studies, the original correlated five-factor model (which included the subscales Listening with Full Attention, Emotional Awareness of the Child, Compassion for the Child, Self-Regulation in Parenting, and Nonjudgmental Acceptance of Parental Functioning) was the best-fitting model. Adequate Cronbach’s alpha values were found for the total scale and for all subscales, except for the Emotional Awareness of the Child subscale. Moderate to strong negative correlations were found between the IM-P-I subscales and anxious and depressive symptomatology and emotional dysregulation. This study shows that the IM-P-I is a psychometrically adequate measure of mindful parenting in the postpartum period.

Resumo A Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale (IMP) é uma escala de autorrelato que avalia a utilização de habilidades de mindfulness na relação entre pais e filhos. O objetivo deste estudo foi adaptar a IMP para o contexto brasileiro e investigar suas propriedades psicométricas. A adaptação para o português brasileiro foi realizada por psicólogas com características do público-alvo do instrumento. Na etapa de busca por evidências de validade, a amostra foi composta por 221 mães de crianças entre seis e 12 anos. Utilizou-se um questionário de caracterização da amostra, IMP e Questionário de Cinco Facetas de Mindfulness (FFMQ-BR). Os resultados indicaram que os itens apresentaram composição fatorial adequada, e a escala demonstrou consistência interna adequada e se correlacionou de forma positiva com escores gerais de mindfulness (FFMQ-BR). Recomenda-se o uso da IMP em futuras investigações brasileiras que tenham como objetivo a mensuração do nível de mindful parenting em mães.

Parenting practices have been linked to a wide range of issues related to children’s psychological adjustment; however, more research is warranted to further understand not only cultural variations of parenting norms, but also how such variations might differentially influence child outcomes. The current study examined the psychometric properties of a Chinese translation of the Multidimensional Assessment of Parenting Scale (MAPS) in order to: 1) assess both positive and negative dimensions of parenting in Chinese-speaking societies, and 2) to explore the relationships between these practices and children’s psychopathological symptoms. A total of 2237 parents with children between 6-12 years old completed the MAPS, Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale (IM-P), adapted Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI), and other measures related to children’s psychosocial functioning. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed a clear six-factor structure. Results demonstrated adequate psychometric properties in terms of internal consistency and test-retest reliability. MAPS subscales also showed concurrent and convergent validity with mindful parenting, parent-child bonding, and children’s psychopathology outcomes. The importance of using culturally validated dimensional measures of parenting is discussed in this paper.

Zusammenfassung. Der Erziehungsfragebogen (EFB) ist die übersetzte und an den deutschen Sprachraum adaptierte Version der Parenting Scale (PS; Arnold, O’Leary, Wolff & Acker, 1993 ). Der EFB ist ein Selbstbeurteilungsinstrument, mit dem Eltern ihr Erziehungsverhalten einschätzen. Dabei wird dysfunktionales Erziehungsverhalten als Verhaltenstendenz in Erziehungs- bzw. Disziplinierungssituationen erfasst. Der EFB besteht aus folgenden Skalen: Überreagieren, Nachgiebigkeit und Weitschweifigkeit. Außerdem kann ein Gesamtwert gebildet werden. Anhand einer Stichprobe von 654 Müttern und 456 Vätern von 691 Kindergartenkindern, zusammengefasst aus mehreren einzelnen Studien, wurden die faktorielle Struktur untersucht und die Testgütekriterien des EFB bestimmt. Die Struktur der PS ließ sich auch für den EFB bestätigen. Es ergaben sich befriedigende bis gute Testgütekriterien, die vergleichbar mit dem englischen Instrument sind. Darüber hinaus ist der EFB sensitiv für Veränderungen. Aufgrund der Ergebnisse kann der Einsatz des EFB sowohl in entsprechenden Studien als auch im therapeutischen Bereich empfohlen werden.
