摘要

本研究目的在驗證自尊、知覺壓力及社會支持與產後六週婦女憂鬱症狀之關係模式。此一描述性的研究方法中，共有高雄地區129位產後六週的產婦接受問卷調查。收集資料的五份量表包括：個人基本資料、壓力知覺量表、社會支持調查表、古柏史密斯評量表，和貝氏憂鬱量表。初步LISRE檢定結果發現自然生產組和剖腹產組的共變數結構有統計上的顯著差異。因此，採用多樣本LISREL分析法同時檢定兩組資料，結果印證了產後憂鬱理論模式。此模式解釋自然生產組產後憂鬱總變異量的54%和剖腹產組產後憂鬱總變異量的44%。

The purpose of this study was to examine whether the Postpartum Depression Model fits the data. A total of 129 Chinese women at 6 weeks postpartum were recruited to participate in this study from the Kaohsiung City area, Taiwan, Republic of China. Five instruments were used to collect data: the Demographic Data Form, the Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale, the Cohen’s Interpersonal Support Evaluation List, the Cooper- smith’s Self-Esteem Inventory, and the Beck Depression Inventory. In testing the Postpartum Depression Model, tests of covariance structures for type of delivery (vaginal delivery vs. Cesarean delivery) by LISREL (LInear Structural RELations) indicated that covariance matrices for the two groups were significantly different. Therefore, multi-sample LISREL analysis was used to analyze data from the two groups simultaneously and it demonstrated that the basic model of the two groups fit the data well. In all, 54% of variance in postpartum depression for the vaginal delivery group and 44% of variance in postpartum depression for the Cesarean delivery group was explained.
