PEREZ PADILLA, Javier; ALVAREZ-DARDET, Susana Menéndez  y  VICTORIA HIDALGO, María. Parenting stress, coping strategies and risk assessment in mothers from at-risk families assisted by Child and Family Protection Services. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2014, vol.23, n.1, pp.25-32. ISSN 2173-4712.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/in2014a3.

In this study parenting stress and coping strategies in a sample of 109 mothers from at-risk families were analyzed. Results obtained show over half of these women experienced clinical levels of parenting stress, and problem focused coping strategies were the most commonly used. Moreover, the main characteristics of these families and their trajectories in Child and Family Protection Services were correlated with parenting stress and coping strategies. The global valuation of family risk informed by professionals was significantly related to parenting stress.
