This study investigates the role of self-perceived burden as a mediating factor in the association between perceived partner responsiveness and fertility intentions in women of reproductive age diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease. A sample of 366 female inflammatory bowel disease patients from Changsha, China, was recruited using convenience sampling. Participants completed assessments, including the Impact of Perceived Partner Responsiveness Scale, Self-Perceived Burden Scale, Fertility Intentions Questionnaire, and a demographic questionnaire. Results indicated a moderate-to-low level of fertility intentions (mean score: 5.33 ± 2.21), with corresponding moderate levels of self-perceived burden (mean score: 30.01 ± 10.02) and perceived partner responsiveness (mean score: 52.80 ± 17.03). Positive correlations were observed between perceived partner responsiveness and fertility intentions and negative correlations between self-perceived burden and fertility intentions. The relationship between perceived partner responsiveness and fertility intentions was found to be partially mediated by self-perceived burden. These findings highlight the significance of perceived partner responsiveness and self-perceived burden in shaping fertility intentions among women with inflammatory bowel disease.
本研究旨在探讨自我感知负担在感知伴侣反应性与炎症性肠病育龄女性生育意愿之间的关系中的中介作用。采用方便抽样法，在中国长沙招募了 366 名炎症性肠病女性患者作为样本。参与者完成了评估，包括感知伴侣反应性量表、自我感知负担量表、生育意愿问卷和人口统计学问卷。结果显示，生育意愿处于中等偏低水平（平均得分：5.33 ± 2.21），相应的自我感知负担和感知伴侣反应性处于中等水平（平均得分：30.01 ± 10.02 和 52.80 ± 17.03）。感知伴侣反应性与生育意愿呈正相关，自我感知负担与生育意愿呈负相关。感知伴侣反应性与生育意愿之间的关系部分通过自我感知负担来介导。这些发现强调了感知伴侣反应性和自我感知负担在塑造炎症性肠病女性生育意愿方面的重要性。
