Abstract

Objective: This study explored parental experiences of subjective well-being in the context of infant sleep problems.

Background: Although quantitative research has highlighted the deleterious impact of infant sleep problems for parental well-being broadly, little is known about subjective experiences of well-being specifically.

Method: This retrospective qualitative study formed part of a larger multiphase project. Ten parents who approached a sleep consultancy for assistance with infant sleep problems participated in the study. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and results were analysed thematically.

Results: Two key themes were identified: (1) the negative influences of insufficient sleep on parental subjective well-being, and (2) the indirect influence of infant sleep problems on parental subjective well-being. Participants highlighted the direct influence of insufficient sleep on their life satisfaction, affect and mood. Further, through its impact on infant well-being and behaviour, and the loss of free time, infant sleep problems indirectly negatively influenced parental subjective well-being. As a result, life satisfaction and affect was deleteriously influenced.

Conclusion: Parental subjective well-being may be deleteriously influenced by infant sleep problems, both directly through insufficient sleep and indirectly through the impact of infant sleep problems.

婴儿睡眠问题背景下父母的主观幸福感体验。

研究目的本研究探讨了父母在婴儿睡眠问题背景下的主观幸福感体验：背景：尽管定量研究强调了婴儿睡眠问题对父母幸福感的广泛有害影响，但具体到父母对幸福感的主观体验却知之甚少：这项回顾性定性研究是一项大型多阶段项目的一部分。十位曾就婴儿睡眠问题向睡眠咨询公司寻求帮助的父母参与了这项研究。通过深入访谈收集数据，并对结果进行主题分析：结果：确定了两个关键主题：(结果：确定了两个关键主题：（1）睡眠不足对父母主观幸福感的负面影响；（2）婴儿睡眠问题对父母主观幸福感的间接影响。参与者强调了睡眠不足对其生活满意度、情感和情绪的直接影响。此外，婴儿睡眠问题对婴儿的健康和行为产生了影响，并使他们失去了空闲时间，从而间接对父母的主观幸福感产生了负面影响。因此，生活满意度和情绪也受到了有害影响：结论：父母的主观幸福感可能会受到婴儿睡眠问题的有害影响，这既可能是由于婴儿睡眠不足而直接造成的，也可能是由于婴儿睡眠问题的影响而间接造成的。
