STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
We used 2 statistics to compare parenting practices among mothers with and without depressive symptoms at 2 to 4 months post partum.
Multiple logistic regression models were used to estimate the overall unadjusted and adjusted relations of the
presence of maternal depressive symptoms with parenting practices.
These models assessed whether differences by depressive symptoms were due to covariates that may potentially be
associated with both depressive symptoms and parenting practices.
These covariates were mother’s age, race, ethnicity, marital or partner status, level of education, and employment status; whether she was a first-time mother; father’s employment status; household income; whether the family owned their home;and child’s age (Table 1).
In addition, because of a possible correlation of observations among families receiving pediatric care at the same site,
multiple logistic regression analyses were also adjusted for thesite of health care and enrollment in the Healthy Steps intervention group.
Analyses were conducted using SAS statistical software, version 8.2 (SAS Institute Inc, Cary, NC).
The Committee on Human Subjects Research of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and the institutional review board of Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons granted study approval. For participants in this study, written informed consent was obtained at the time of enrollment, and oral
consent was obtained before the 2- to 4-month interview.
