The present study aimed to explore the mediating role of supportive coparenting in the relationship between parental psychopathology symptoms and mindful parenting and to explore whether the child's age group moderates the associations in the model. A sample of 462 parents (94.2% mothers) of preschool and school-aged children completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Parental Perceptions of Coparenting Questionnaire, and the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale. A moderated mediation model was estimated to analyze the indirect effect of psychopathology symptoms on mindful parenting through supportive coparenting and the moderating role of the child's age group. Higher levels of parental psychopathology were found to be associated both directly and indirectly (through lower levels of supportive coparenting) with lower levels of mindful parenting, regardless of the child's age group. The results suggest that supportive coparenting is a relevant explanatory mechanism for the relationship between parental psychopathology and mindful parenting.
本研究旨在探讨支持性的共同养育在父母心理病理学症状与正念养育之间的关系中的中介作用，并探讨孩子的年龄组是否会调节模型中的关联。一个由 462 名学龄前和学龄儿童的父母（94.2%是母亲）组成的样本完成了医院焦虑和抑郁量表、父母对共同养育的感知问卷和亲子人际正念量表。估计了一个中介调节模型，以分析心理病理学症状通过支持性共同养育对正念养育的间接影响，以及孩子年龄组的调节作用。研究发现，无论孩子的年龄组如何，父母的心理病理学水平较高都与正念养育水平较低直接和间接相关（通过支持性共同养育水平较低）。结果表明，支持性的共同养育是父母心理病理学和正念养育之间关系的一个重要解释机制。
