Investigate the use of resilience theories in the transition to parenthood literature.
The transition to parenthood is a key developmental experience for many adults. Resilience is a unifying theoretical concept which incorporates many of the skills and resources linked with the transition to parenthood, but the uptake of resilience theory in this literature is unknown.
We used a scoping review to examine the use of resilience theory in published transition to parenthood research. This included a systematic search of the literature, descriptive analysis of theories and methods used and an assessment of theoretical integration.
We identified 17 studies which met inclusion criteria. Explicit use of theory occurred in six studies and quality of theoretical integration was high for all of these. Resilience was seen as a desirable concept for mapping complex data, taking a holistic approach to psychological health and acknowledging environmental and systemic influences. We also identified 29 resilience supporting factors including positive self-concept, optimism, social support, family relationships, community services and social connectedness.
Resilience is a useful concept for synthesising information about the transition to parenthood.
调查韧性理论在向父母身份转变文献中的应用。
向父母身份的转变是许多成年人的关键发展经历。韧性是一个统一的理论概念，它包含了许多与向父母身份转变相关的技能和资源，但韧性理论在这一文献中的应用尚不清楚。
我们使用范围综述来检查韧性理论在已发表的向父母身份转变研究中的应用。这包括对文献的系统搜索、对使用的理论和方法的描述性分析，以及对理论整合的评估。
我们确定了 17 项符合纳入标准的研究。六项研究明确使用了理论，所有这些研究的理论整合质量都很高。韧性被视为映射复杂数据、采取整体心理健康方法以及承认环境和系统影响的理想概念。我们还确定了 29 个支持韧性的因素，包括积极的自我概念、乐观主义、社会支持、家庭关系、社区服务和社会联系。
韧性是综合向父母身份转变信息的有用概念。
