This study aimed to investigate mothers' parenting stress and explore its relationship with associated demographic variables in two-child families involving preschool children. A sample of 621 two-child families and a comparison group of 319 one-child families from China participated in the study; the children were aged between 3 and 7. The results showed that (1) mothers of two-child families had higher parenting stress than those of one-child families; (2) within the two-child families, demographic variables, such as birth order, gender combination, and the age gap were found to have significant effects on maternal stress levels; and (3) in two-child families, families with an income of less than 3000 yuan had significantly higher maternal stress than families with an income of more than 6000 yuan.
本研究旨在调查有学龄前儿童的二孩家庭中母亲的育儿压力，并探讨其与相关人口统计学变量之间的关系。来自中国的621个二孩家庭样本和319个一孩家庭对照组参与了该研究；孩子年龄在3至7岁之间。结果表明：（1）二孩家庭的母亲比一孩家庭的母亲育儿压力更大；（2）在二孩家庭中，诸如出生顺序、性别组合和年龄差距等人口统计学变量对母亲的压力水平有显著影响；（3）在二孩家庭中，收入低于3000元的家庭的母亲压力显著高于收入超过6000元的家庭。
