Psychological flexibility as a predictor of mental health outcomes in parents of pre-school children during the COVID-19 pandemic: A two-year longitudinal study
Overview
This longitudinal study examines how parental psychological flexibility, including acceptance, defusion, and committed action, predicts parenting stress and depression symptoms in parents of preschoolers over two years of the pandemic. The research identifies these factors as potential protective elements for mental health during sustained stress periods. It is primarily intended for researchers and clinicians interested in evidence-based predictors of parental well-being.
