The relationship between an infant's temperamental difficulty and the mother's child-rearing stress was investigated in a sample of 128 children. Children's temperament was assessed by the Revised Infant Temperament Questionnaire (RITQ) at 6-7 months, and by the Toddler Temperament Scale (TTS) at 18 months. The mothers' child-rearing stress was assessed by a self-report questionnaire. At the children's age of 18 months, mothers of difficult children reported higher child-rearing stress than mothers of easy children. Although difference in the level of child-rearing stress reflecting birth order was not evident at either 6-7 months or 18 months, the proportion of child-rearing stress which could be explained by the children's temperament was highest for mothers of first-borns when their children were 18 months old.
在一个由128名儿童组成的样本中，研究了婴儿气质困难与母亲育儿压力之间的关系。通过修订后的婴儿气质问卷（RITQ）在6至7个月时评估儿童的气质，并在18个月时通过幼儿气质量表（TTS）进行评估。母亲的育儿压力通过自我报告问卷进行评估。在孩子18个月大时，难养型孩子的母亲报告的育儿压力高于易养型孩子的母亲。尽管在6至7个月或18个月时，反映出生顺序的育儿压力水平差异并不明显，但当孩子18个月大时，头胎孩子的母亲中，可由孩子气质解释的育儿压力比例最高。
