Objective This study aimed to assess mothers' attitudes toward their preschool children before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Materials and Methods In this observational study, mothers of children aged 2 to 6 years completed a family information form and the Parent Attitude Scale (PAS) during two periods: the Before Pandemic (BPanP) group (n=303) and the During Pandemic (DPanP) group (n=344). Generalized lineer models evaluated differences in PAS subdimension scores according to pandemic period and mother-child characteristics.
Results Compared to the BPanP group, the median scores for democratic and overprotective attitudes were quite similar in the two phases, while the median scores for authoritarian and permissive attitudes were notably higher in the DPanP group (p=0.014, p<0.001, respectively). When we accounted for mother-child factors, multivariate analysis revealed a positive link between the pandemic period and permissive parenting scores. Prior to the pandemic, there was a negative correlation between democratic parental attitudes and both authoritarian and permissive attitudes. However, during the pandemic, this negative correlation only persisted between democratic and authoritarian attitudes. The positive correlation between authoritarian and permissive attitudes, observed before the pandemic, remained unchanged during the pandemic period. A new positive correlation emerged between democratic and overprotective attitudes.
Conclusion The findings indicate changes in maternal attitudes, with higher scores in permissive parenting amidst the COVID-19 outbreak in contrast to the time before the pandemic.
Objetivo Este estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar las actitudes de las madres hacia sus hijos en edad preescolar antes y durante la pandemia de COVID-19.
Materiales y Métodos En este estudio observacional, madres de niños de 2 a 6 años completaron un formulario de información familiar y la Escala de Actitud de los Padres (PAS) durante dos periodos: el grupo Antes de la Pandemia (BPanP) (n=303) y el grupo Durante la Pandemia (DPanP) (n=344). Los modelos lineales generalizados evaluaron las diferencias en las puntuaciones de las subdimensiones PAS, según el periodo de la pandemia y las características madre-hijo.
Resultados En comparación con el grupo BPanP, las puntuaciones medianas para actitudes democráticas y sobreprotectoras fueron bastante similares en las dos fases, mientras que las puntuaciones medianas para actitudes autoritarias y permisivas fueron notablemente más altas en el grupo DPanP (p=0,014, p<0,001, respectivamente). Cuando tomamos en cuenta los factores madre-hijo, el análisis multivariado reveló un vínculo positivo entre el periodo de la pandemia y las puntuaciones de paternidad permisiva. Antes de la pandemia, existía una correlación negativa entre las actitudes democráticas de los padres y las actitudes autoritarias y permisivas. Sin embargo, durante la pandemia, esta correlación negativa solo persistió entre actitudes democráticas y autoritarias. La correlación positiva entre actitudes autoritarias y permisivas, observada antes de la pandemia, se mantuvo sin cambios durante el periodo pandémico. Surgió una nueva correlación positiva entre actitudes democráticas y sobreprotectoras.
Conclusión Los hallazgos indican cambios en las actitudes maternas, con puntuaciones más altas en crianza permisiva durante el brote de COVID-19 en contraste con la época anterior a la pandemia.
