摘要

本研究目的是以前瞻追蹤法和事後回溯法探究難養育型嬰兒母親的孕期壓力。難養育嬰兒的母親篩選自200位健康產婦，產婦在三個孕期都填寫孕期心理壓力量表，至其嬰兒四個多月時，再填寫嬰兒氣質評估問卷。依父母親、家人和保母都一致知覺非常難帶的嬰兒，再參考困難氣質特性，計篩選出11位難養育型嬰兒。從量化結果得知，難養育型與非難養育型嬰兒的母親，在三個孕期的心理壓力分量表「確保母子健康及安全」、「外形和身體活動改變」和「認同母親角色」中都未達顯著差異；從母親經驗再現的語料中，深知孕期的先前流產經驗、生理嚴重傷害、配偶低社會支持等等壓力事件背後的意義和脈絡，最後研究提出增加低社經孕婦人數、與醫院護理單位合作和輔以可體松檢測孕婦壓力值等建議。
