Abstract
Objective Sleep affects the development and severity of psychiatric symptoms in children, and maternal personality traits may influence children's sleep. We aimed to confirm the longitudinal effect of maternal personality traits on children's sleep disturbance using cohort data from the Panel Study on Korean Children. Methods Maternal personality traits were assessed using the Personality Assessment Inventory in 2009, and the sleep disturbance of children was assessed using parent survey data from 2010 to 2014 (2nd-6th waves). Among the 11 clinical scales of the Personality Assessment Inventory, the 5 scales that showed the most significant correlations were analyzed. Presence or absence of child sleep disturbance was evaluated with a chi-square test, and the effect of the Personality Assessment Inventory was assessed by a binary logistic regression analysis with child sleep disturbance as the dependent variable. Results Of the 171 mother-child dyads, 92 were classified into the sleep disturbance group and 79 were classified into the normal sleep group. Maternal somatic concerns showed a significant relationship with children's sleep disturbance at years 2 and 3. Maternal borderline features demonstrated a significant relationship with children's sleep disturbance from years 2 to 5. The binary logistic regression analysis revealed a significant association between high borderline features and children's sleep disturbance at years 2 and 3. Conclusion High maternal borderline features evaluated at child age 1 were related to sleep disturbance in early childhood. In assessing a children's sleep problems, it may be important to examine mothers' dysfunctional personality traits.

Abstract
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex mental health condition often associated with previous childhood adversity including maladaptive parenting. When becoming a parent themselves, mothers with BPD have difficulties with various parenting cognitions and practices, but unknown is whether they have appropriate knowledge of sensitive parenting. This study explored whether differences in parenting knowledge or self-efficacy are specific to BPD or also found in mothers with depression, and whether symptom severity or specific diagnosis better explain parenting perceptions. Mothers with BPD (n = 26), depression (n = 25) or HCs (n = 25) completed a Q-sort parenting knowledge task and a parenting self-efficacy questionnaire. Results showed mothers with BPD had the same knowledge of sensitive parenting behaviors as mothers with depression and healthy mothers. Self-reported parenting self-efficacy was lower in mothers with BPD and depression compared with healthy mothers, with symptom severity most strongly associated. A significant but low correlation was found between parenting self-efficacy and knowledge. Findings suggest that mothers with BPD and depression know what good parenting is but think they are not parenting well. Mental health difficulties are not associated with parenting knowledge, but symptom severity appears to be a common pathway to lower parenting self-efficacy. Future interventions should test whether reduction of symptom severity or positive parenting feedback could improve parenting self-efficacy.

Compr Psychiatry 2021; 108:152248. [PMID: 34044326 DOI: 10.1016/j.comppsych.2021.152248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2019] [Revised: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 05/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mothers with postpartum depression (PPD) show impaired affects and behaviour patterns in the mother-child interaction, which affects an infant's emotional and cognitive development and the maternal course of disease. However, impairment of the mother-child relationship does not occur in every case of PPD. AIM The aim of this exploratory-descriptive video-based study was to investigate the possible associations between mother-child interactions and aspects of maternal biography and clinical history, with a focus on pre-existing mental disorder. METHODS Sixty-two mother-child dyads (31 mothers with PPD and pre-existing mental disorders and 31 mothers with PPD but no further mental disorder) hospitalized at the mother and baby unit (MBU) of the LWL-Hospital Herten were included in this study. The Marcé Clinical Checklist and the "Mannheimer Beurteilungsskala zur Erfassung der Mutter-Kind-Interaktion im Säuglingsalter" (MBS-MKI-S) were used to explore sociodemographic and clinical parameters, and video-based interaction behaviour was examined. RESULTS Mother-infant interaction behaviour showed a significant group difference on the MBS-MKI-S-Vm subscale (variability in maternal behaviour) before psychiatric treatment (exact Mann-Whitney U test: U = 555, p = 0.023), with higher scores in mothers with a pre-existing mental disorder. Furthermore, significant differences were shown on the MBS-MKI-S-RSm (maternal reactivity/sensitivity) (U = 259, p = 0.019) and MBS-MKI-S-Rc (child's reactivity) subscales at discharge (U = 251, p = 0.021). Among mothers with a pre-existing diagnosis, the MBS-MKI-S-Tm (maternal tenderness) and MBS-MKI-S-Rc (child's reactivity) subscales were significantly correlated after treatment. CONCLUSIONS Mothers with PPD and a pre-existing mental disorder displayed significantly more behavioural variability than mothers with only PPD. Maternal behaviour seems to influence the child's responsive behaviour; thus, mothers and their children can benefit from inpatient treatment at an MBU. Further investigations with larger samples should be conducted.

Abstract
PURPOSE Maternal depression has been associated with bonding difficulties and lower maternal sensitivity in observed mother-infant interactions. However, little research has examined the impact of disordered personality traits in mothers on these outcomes. We investigated the association between disordered personality traits in mothers measured during pregnancy and postnatal (a) self-reported bonding with infant; (b) observational mother-infant interactions. METHODS Five hundred fifty-six women were recruited during early pregnancy and subsequently followed up at mid-pregnancy (approximately 28 weeks' gestation) and when infants were aged approximately 3 months (n = 459). During early pregnancy, data were collected on disordered personality traits (using the Standardised Assessment of Personality Abbreviated Scale) and depressive symptoms (using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale). At 3 months postpartum, self-reported perceived bonding (using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire) were collected. A sub-sample of women additionally provided observational mother-infant interaction data (n = 206) (coded using the Child-Adult Relationship Experimental Index). RESULTS Higher disordered personality traits was not associated with maternal perceptions of bonding impairment, but was associated with reduced maternal sensitivity during observational mother-infant interactions [adjusted for age, education, having older children, substance misuse prior to pregnancy, infant sex and gestational age: coefficient = - 0.28, 95% CI = - 0.56 to - 0.00, p < 0.05]. After adjusting for depressive symptoms, the association was attenuated [coefficient = - 0.19, 95% CI = - 0.48 to 0.11, p = 0.217]. CONCLUSIONS Mothers with disordered personality traits did not perceive themselves as having bonding impairments with their infants but were less sensitive during observed interactions, though depressive symptoms attenuated this relationship. Both depression and disordered personality traits need to be addressed to optimize mother-infant interactions.
