聽損幼兒母親的親職韌性、配偶共親職與親職壓力之關係

Parenting Resilience, Coparenting and Parenting Stress for Mothers of Young Children with Hearing Loss

本研究旨在探討聽損幼兒母親之親職韌性、配偶共親職與親職壓力的關連情形，研究對象為育有聽損幼兒的母親，母親為已婚且與配偶同住，採用問卷調查法，以「親職韌性量表」、「配偶共親職量表」以及「親職壓力量表」等為研究工具，共發出338份問卷，得有效問卷215份。研究資料經因素分析、描述性統計、t考驗、單因子變異數分析、皮爾森積差相關以及線性迴歸等統計方法進行分析，主要的結果發現如下：1. 母親知覺自己具有相當高的親職韌性。2. 母親知覺配偶有相當多的支持行為，而感受到較少的抵制行為。3. 母親傾向有時感受到親職壓力。4. 母親的教育程度、就業情形、家庭收入以及子女溝通方式等背景變項對部分的親職壓力造成顯著差異。5. 母親的親職韌性、配偶支持、教育程度、就業情形、家庭收入、子女溝通方式與部分親職壓力有顯著的負相關；母親知覺配偶的抵制程度與親職壓力有顯著的正相關。6. 母親親職韌性中的正向思考、配偶支持、配偶抵制、家庭收入、以及子女溝通方式等對於部分親職壓力向度具有顯著預測力。本研究並依據研究結果提出具體建議。

The purpose of this study was to investigate parenting resilience, coparenting and parenting stress for mothers of young children with hearing loss. The measures included ‘Parenting Resilience scale’, ‘Coparenting scale’, and ‘Parenting Stress scale’. 338 mothers were surveyed, and 215 valid questionnaires were collected. The results of descriptive analyses indicated that the mothers perceived pretty high level of parenting resilience, and they sometimes perceived parenting stress. Mothers of young children with hearing loss perceived support and less reprimand from fathers. Regarding the differences among the dimensions of parenting stress based upon mothers’ education, occupation, family income, and children’s communication ability, some of the significant differences were found. The correlations showed that parenting resilience and fathers’ support of coparenting were partially negatively related to mothers’ parenting stress. Fathers’ reprimand of coparenting was positively related to mothers’ parenting stress. Mothers’ education, occupation, family income, and young children’s communication ability were also partially negatively related to mothers’ parenting stress. The regression analyses indicated that mothers’ positive thinking, fathers’ support, reprimand, family income and children’s communication ability did show significant association with mothers’ parenting stress. Finally, based on the findings, several suggestions were made for parents of young children with hearing loss, related institutions and further studies.
