Abstract

This pilot study replicated the Arizmendi and Affonso study that identified the frequency and intensity of stressors related to childbearing.1 The original study (n = 221) targeted chiefly middle-class white women. To date, there is no literature on stressful events as reported by African-American childbearing women. It was hypothesized that African-American women would identify differential patterns of stressful events in childbearing. A convenience sample of 50 African-American childbearing women were interviewed. Demographics were presented and compared with the original study. The frequency and intensity of stressors were analyzed and compared. It was proposed that the differential stressors between the chiefly white middle-class sample and the African-American sample relates to both the life experiences and the differential birth outcomes of African-American childbearing women. Areas for future research are targeted.

非裔美国妇女与生育有关的压力事件
这项试点研究复制了Arizmendi和Affonso的研究,该研究确定了与生育相关的压力源的频率和强度。1最初的研究(n=221)主要针对中产阶级白人女性。到目前为止,还没有关于非裔美国育龄妇女所报告的压力事件的文献。据推测,非裔美国女性在生育过程中会识别出不同的压力事件模式。对50名非裔美国育龄妇女进行了方便抽样调查。介绍了人口统计学,并与原始研究进行了比较。对应激源的频率和强度进行了分析和比较。有人提出,主要是白人中产阶级样本和非裔美国人样本之间的差异压力源与非裔美国育龄妇女的生活经历和不同的出生结果有关。未来研究的领域是有针对性的。
