Abstract

Background: Lack of male partners’ postpartum support can cause postpartum depression (PPD), a serious mood disorder, in women. Thus, to prevent PPD, it is important to clarify the factors influencing male partners’ postpartum support. Methods: In total, 62 male partners of postpartum women at 1 week–6 months after delivery, living in South Jakarta, were invited by assistance from community volunteers. Focus group interviews were employed; participants were grouped depending on their residences and asked about their behaviors in supporting postpartum women. Interviews were documented using two voice recorders and two video recorders. The content analysis method and Bertalanffy’s system theory of internal and external factors of health behaviors was utilized to develop units and codes. Results: The analysis identified five codes of individual-level factors: (1) knowledge; (2) belief; (3) social and life adaptation skills; (4) psychological disposition; and (5) physiological condition. Three codes of community-level factors included: (1) social support; (2) media; and (3) socio-cultural and economic. Two codes of social policy-level factors included (1) health care system and; (2) Indonesian societal laws and regulations. Conclusions: Various internal and external factors influence Indonesian male partners’ postpartum support. Different interventions for these factors might be impactful in preventing PPD.

Abstract

Children's social development is an important aspect that influences their later life; hence it is important to optimize their development from an early age. This study investigates the correlation between development of social skills in preschool-aged children and parental mental health in Indonesia. Utilizing a cross-sectional observational methodology, data were gathered from 343 parents and teachers within nine private kindergartens located in SJ Ward, B City. The mental health of parents was examined with the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), whilst the social abilities of children were measured with the Social Skill Scale (SSS). Findings revealed a negative correlation between parental stress and anxiety with children's assertion, self-control, and cooperation. Nonetheless, depression did not exhibit significant correlations with social skills, which might be influenced by the study's cross-sectional design. The results underscore the necessity for early interventions aimed at alleviating parental stress and anxiety to enhance children's social skills. This research is the first application of the validated SSS for preschoolers in Indonesia, enhancing the comprehension of early childhood social development. Future investigations should examine long-term consequences via longitudinal studies. These findings offer significant insights for educators and mental health experts in formulating parenting support programs that promote healthy child development.
