Abstract Perinatalna uključenost partnera u trudnoću gotovo je zanemaren konstrukt u
kontekstu psiholoških i fizioloških ishoda dobrobiti za trudnice i fetus. Cilj istraživanja:
utvrditi psihosocijalne čimbenike (osobine ličnosti, anksioznost, stil privrženosti,
empatija, percipirani stres, bračna kvaliteta) koji se nalaze u osnovi percepcije
uključenosti budućega oca u trudnoću iz perspektive obaju partnera (trudnica i njihovih
partnera) prema biopsihosocijalnom modelu.
Ispitanici i metode: 143 para (N=286) u trećem tromjesečju svoje prve trudnoće koji
su ispunili Upitnik demografskih podataka, Skalu percipirane uključenosti partnera u
trudnoću, Upitnik osobina ličnosti (EPQ), Upitnik anksioznosti kao stanja i osobina
ličnosti, Interpersonalni indeks reaktivnosti, Skalu privrženosti kod odraslih, Skalu
percipiranog stresa i Indeks bračne kvalitete. Rezultate dobivene na zavisnoj varijabli
uključenosti partnera kategorizirali smo i podijelili uzorak po medijanu u dvije skupine:
više uključenih i manje uključenih partnera u trudnoću.
Rezultati: žene i muškarci slažu se u percepciji uključenosti partnera u trudnoću,
bračnoj kvaliteti i percipiranom stresu. Važnim prediktorom percepcije uključenosti
partnera u trudnoću pokazala se anksioznost kad je riječ o muškoj percepciji
uključenosti u trudnoću te neuroticizam kad je riječ o ženinoj percepciji uključenosti
partnera u trudnoću. Bračna kvaliteta obaju partnera povrh osobina ličnosti objašnjava
percepciju uključenosti partnera u trudnoću. Anksioznost kao crta ličnosti medijacijska
je varijabla u odnosu između percipiranoga stresa i uključenosti partnera u trudnoću.
Situacijska anksioznost potvrđena je kao medijacijska varijabla u odnosu između
percipiranoga stresa i uključenosti partnera u trudnoću samo u slučaju kad je riječ o
muškoj percepciji vlastite uključenosti u trudnoću. Prediktorima dobrobiti trudnica
pokazali su se anksioznost kao crta ličnosti i percipirani stres. Zaključak: Zadovoljstvo
partnerskim odnosom i niža percepcija stresa te sniženi neuroticizam i anksioznost kao
crta ličnosti, upućuju na višu uključenost partnera u trudnoću. Razumijevanje
psihosocijalnih aspekata uključenosti partnera u trudnoću može utjecati na ciljane
psihosocijalne intervencije i unapređivanje prenatalnih zdravstvenih ponašanja te
smanjenje emocionalnoga stresa u trudnica.
Abstract (english) Perinatal couples’ pregnancy involvement is the understudied concept in psychological
and physiological outcomes for pregnant women and fetuses. Objectives: The aim of
this study was to investigate the differences in pregnancy involvement in prospective
couples regarding personality traits, anxiety, empathy, attachment, perceived stress,
relationship quality through the biopsychosocial model. Patients and methods:
Participants were 134 prospective couples in the last trimester of pregnancy (N=286).
They completed questionnaires including Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, StateTrait Anxiety Inventory, Quality of Marriage Index, Perceived Stress Scale, Adult
Attachment Scale, Interpersonal Reactivity Index, Partner’s Involvement in Pregnancy
Scale and demographics. Results: showed that men and women share their
perception for each partners’ involvement in pregnancy, marital quality and perceived
stress. A significant predictor of perceptions of partners’ involvement in pregnancy
were anxiety for men's perceptions of involvement in pregnancy, and neuroticism in
woman's perception of partners' involvement in pregnancy. Marital quality in addition
to personality traits explains the perception of partners’ involvement in pregnancy.
Anxiety as a personality trait is a mediating variable in the relationship between
perceived stress and the involvement of partners in pregnancy. Situational anxiety was
confirmed as a mediating variable in the relationship between perceived stress and the
involvement of partners in pregnancy only when it comes to men's perceptions of their
own involvement in the pregnancy. Predictors of pregnant women showed that anxiety
as personality traits and perceived stress were detected as predictors in pregnant
women’s well-being.
Conclusion: The findings demonstrate the importance of psychological factors such
as anxiety, neuroticism, quality of relationship and perceived stress, as predictors of
prospective couples’ involvement in pregnancy. This finding could lead to targeted
interventions that can modify and improve couples’ involvement in pregnancy: thus
clinically important for promotion of healthy prenatal behaviour and decrease in
mothers’ emotional distress.
