(1) : The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between: (a) new mothers' styles of attachment to their own mothers with their representation of self as a mother as well as with their representation of one's mother as a mother, (b) new mothers' representation of self as a mother with their representation of one's own mother as a mother, and (c) their bonds with their children and their styles of attachment to their own mothers. (2) : A total of 86 mothers were interviewed approximately six months postpartum. The Adjective Checklist, a modified version of the Experiences in Close Relationships, and the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire were used in the study. (3) : Analysis revealed a statistically significant relationship between the new mothers' styles of attachment to their own mothers and both their representation of self as a mother and their representation of one's mother as a mother. The relationship between representation of self as a mother and representation of one's mother as a mother was also statistically significant. No statistically significant relationship was observed between the style of attachment to one's mother and the bond with one's child six months postpartum. (4) : A deeper understanding of the relationship between these variables may improve the help system directed at young mothers.
(1):本研究旨在评估以下因素之间的关系:(a)新妈妈对自己母亲的依恋风格与其作为母亲的自我意象以及其对自己母亲作为母亲的意象,(b)新妈妈作为母亲的自我意象与其对自己母亲作为母亲的意象,以及(c)她们与孩子的联系和对自己母亲的依恋风格。(2):共有 86 位母亲在产后约六个月接受了访谈。研究中使用了形容词检查表、亲密关系经历的修改版和产后纽带问卷。(3):分析显示,新妈妈对自己母亲的依恋风格与她们作为母亲的自我意象和她们对自己母亲作为母亲的意象之间存在统计学上显著的关系。自我意象和母亲意象之间的关系也是统计学上显著的。在产后六个月,与母亲的依恋风格与与孩子的纽带之间没有观察到统计学上显著的关系。(4):更深入地了解这些变量之间的关系可能会改善针对年轻母亲的帮助系统。
