This study compared the mental health of 12 mothers who had infants with colic to 12 mothers of infants without colic. Colic was defined as infant fussing/crying of at least 2 hours/day for at least 5 out of 7 days, infant cry high-pitched and pain-sounding, and maternal report of infant inconsolability. Mental health was operationalized as scores on the Profile of Mood States and the Symptom Checklist-90R. Mothers of infants with colic had multidimensional psychological distress; they reported more bodily dysfunction, fears, disordered thinking, depression, anxiety, fatigue, hostility, impulsive thoughts and actions; and they had stronger feelings of personal inadequacy or inferiority. Implications for nursing research and practice are discussed in the context of study findings.
本研究比较了12名患有腹绞痛婴儿的母亲与12名没有腹绞痛婴儿的母亲的心理健康状况。腹绞痛的定义为：婴儿每天至少哭闹2小时，持续7天中的至少5天，哭声尖锐且听起来痛苦，并且母亲报告婴儿难以安抚。心理健康状况通过情绪状态量表和症状自评量表90项修订版的得分来衡量。患有腹绞痛婴儿的母亲存在多维度心理困扰；她们报告了更多的身体功能障碍、恐惧、思维紊乱、抑郁、焦虑、疲劳、敌意、冲动的想法和行为；并且她们有更强烈的个人能力不足或自卑感。在研究结果的背景下讨论了对护理研究和实践的启示。
