Brief Summary: Mother-infant relationship disturbances broadly comprise three areas; maternal distress, infant functional problems, and relationship difficulties. Given the high frequency of such disturbances and the relative paucity of randomized treatment studies, substantial systematic investigation is needed. This project is a randomized controlled study comparing mother-infant psychoanalytic treatment with treatment as usual in cases where mothers and/or health visitors demanded expert help.
Detailed Description: DESIGN

Eighty dyads with infants below 1½ years of age were interviewed and then randomly assigned to MIP or TAU. An end-point interview followed after ½ year, evaluating the intervention effects.

The MIP treatments were performed by IPA psychoanalysts at the Infant Reception Service of the Swedish Psychoanalytic Society. TAU implied contact with a nurse at a Child Health Centre, as part of regular Swedish health care of infants and mothers. Additional treatments within the TAU framework suggested at the initiative by the health visitor or the mother were registered at the end-point interview.

INSTRUMENTS

Mother-report questionnaires; the Ages and Stages Questionnaire:Social-Emotional (ASQ:SE; Squires et al., 2002), the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS; Cox et al., 1987), the General Severity Index of the Symptom Check List-90 (Derogatis, 1994)and the Swedish Parental Questionnaire (SPSQ; Östberg et al., 1997).

Time frame: All four instruments were measured at intake interviews and six months later.

Independently rated video-taped mother-infant interactions: the Emotional Availability Scale (EAS; Biringen, 1998).

Relationship assessment: the Parent-Infant Relationship Global Assessment Scale (PIR-GAS; ZERO-TO-THREE, 2005).
