摘要

This study aimed to examine the association between maternal psychological resilience and preschool children’s socio-emotional well-being and psychological resilience from a multidimensional perspective. A cross-sectional, correlational study was conducted with 184 mother-child dyads recruited from preschools in Zonguldak, Türkiye. Mothers completed the Adult Resilience Scale, while children’s socio-emotional well-being and psychological resilience were assessed using the Preschool Social-Emotional Well-being and Resilience Scale. Demographic data were collected via structured form. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlations, and simple and hierarchical multiple regression analyses to examine associations and demographic variations. Maternal psychological resilience showed statistically significant, positive associations with all domains of children’s socio-emotional well-being and resilience. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that maternal resilience explained a significant and unique proportion of variance in children’s self-control/thoughtfulness (ΔR² = 0.034, p = 0.007) after controlling for sociodemographic variables. For other child outcome domains, the observed associations were attenuated after demographic adjustment. Relational resources were independently associated with children’s communication skills and enjoyment of exploration. The findings underscore that mothers’ psychological resilience, particularly their relational and personal resources, is significantly associated with children’s socio-emotional development and resilience capacities. These findings suggest that maternal psychological resilience may be an important correlate of preschool children’s socio-emotional functioning. Given the cross-sectional design, the findings reflect associations rather than causal relationships. Interventions to strengthen mothers’ psychological resilience—especially by enhancing social support networks and offering stress-regulation strategies—may be associated with more adaptive socio-emotional functioning and resilience in preschool children. Pediatric nurses and early childhood professionals should consider integrating resilience-building programs for parents to promote holistic child well-being.
