The Relationship

In this study, we investigated the mediating effect of social support on the relationship between parenting stress and life satisfaction in Chinese mothers of children with cerebral palsy ( N = 369). The results showed that family support and friend support, but not significant-other support, had mediating effects on the relationship between parenting stress and life satisfaction. Moreover, the mediating effect of friend support was equal to family support. These results suggest that the focus should be on reducing parenting stress and increasing support from family and friends to help improve life satisfaction in mothers of children with cerebral palsy.

We examined the factorial validity, measurement invariance, reliability, and concurrent validity across gender groups of the simplified Parenting Stress Index-Short Form (S-PSI-SF) with a group of 486 Chinese parents of children with cerebral palsy. Participants completed the S-PSI-SF and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Support. Findings based on a confirmatory factor analysis suggest that the original three-factor model was duplicated in this population, and displayed measurement invariance for both fathers and mothers. The internal reliability of the S-PSI-SF was confirmed, and composite reliability values were larger than .70. Furthermore, all subscales of the S-PSI-SF were significantly correlated with the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Support. These results show that the S-PSI-SF is a trustworthy and effective tool for evaluating parenting stress and can be used confidently with both fathers and mothers of children with cerebral palsy.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among the gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy and parenting stress, sense of control, and depression in their mothers. Data were collected from 247 children with cerebral palsy and their mothers. To verify the relationship among variables, path analysis was performed. The control variables included the sex and age of the children. The proposed model showed good fit indices. Gross motor function had an indirect effect on parenting stress and depression and a direct effect on parenting stress and self-control (as parenting sense of control). Parenting stress had an indirect effect on depression and a direct effect on self-control and depression. This result suggests the importance of improving the gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy and self-control in the mothers, as well as decreasing parenting stress to reduce the level of the mothers’ depression. Considering the mediating effect of self-control on depression, programs designed to enhance self-control could be effective in decreasing depression in mothers of children with cerebral palsy.
