A Cross-Cultural Analysis of the Prevalence and Risk Factors for Prenatal Depression in Spain and Mexico.
Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry 2021 December
The prevalence and risk factors associated with prenatal depression among Spanish-speaking women in Spain and Mexico are examined and compared through a cross-cultural study. The study utilizes secondary data from 563 participants who received prenatal care in Madrid (N = 283) and in Mexico City (N = 280), assessed with the PHQ-9 and the PDPI-R. Spanish women reported a lower prevalence of depressive symptoms (10.0%) than Mexican women (20.3%). Regression analyses showed that previous prenatal anxiety and lack of family emotional support were common risk factors to the two countries. Within each country, significant risk factors included: (a) previous depression history (β = 0.224; p < 0.001) in Spain; and (b) unplanned pregnancy (β = - 0.116; p < 0.027), lack of emotional support from others (β = 0.129; p < 0.032), marital dissatisfaction (β = 0.186; p < 0.009), and life stress due to financial problems (β = 0.117; p < 0.026), and life stress due to marital problems (β = 0.114; p < 0.040) in Mexico. Health professionals can tailor interventions to their particular risk factors to reduce the adverse effects on mothers and infants.
