To investigate the effect of parental personality on birth outcomes.
Prospective cohort study.
727 pregnant women and 579 spouses receiving antenatal care at a single-center in rural Tokyo, Japan during 2010-2013.
We measured the association between maternal effect of parental personality traits assessed by the Cloninger's Temperament and Character Inventory on birth outcomes, using multiple regression and adjusting for demographics.
Maternal self-transcendence personality was inversely associated with gestational age [-0.26 (95% confidence interval (CI): -0.51 to -0.01) weeks per unit] and positively associated with preterm birth [odds ratio (OR) 2.60 (95% CI: 1.00 to 6.75) per unit], while paternal self-transcendence personality was positively associated with gestational age [0.31 (95% CI: 0.07 to 0.55) weeks per unit]. Maternal reward dependence was positively associated with fetal growth [0.30 (95% CI: 0.02 to 0.59) per unit]. Other maternal and paternal personality traits associated with adverse maternal behavior, such as novelty seeking, harm avoidance and self-directedness, were not associated with birth outcomes.
We found that specific parental personality traits can be associated with birth outcomes.
研究父母个性对分娩结局的影响。
前瞻性队列研究。
2010 - 2013年期间,日本东京农村一家单中心的727名孕妇和579名配偶接受产前护理。
我们使用多元回归并对人口统计学因素进行调整,测量了通过克隆宁格气质与性格量表评估的父母个性特质的母体效应与分娩结局之间的关联。
母亲的自我超越个性与孕周呈负相关[-0.26(95%置信区间(CI):-0.51至-0.01)周/单位],与早产呈正相关[优势比(OR)2.60(95% CI:1.00至6.75)/单位],而父亲的自我超越个性与孕周呈正相关[0.31(95% CI:0.07至0.55)周/单位]。母亲的奖赏依赖与胎儿生长呈正相关[0.30(95% CI:0.02至0.59)/单位]。其他与不良母体行为相关的母亲和父亲个性特质,如寻求新奇、避免伤害和自我导向,与分娩结局无关。
我们发现特定的父母个性特质可能与分娩结局相关。
