Maternal and paternal parenting stress: Direct and interactive associations with child externalizing and internalizing behavior problems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study examined the direct and interactive effects of mothers’ and fathers’ parenting stress in the prediction of child externalizing and internalizing behavior problems. Mothers and fathers (predominantly White and generally college-educated) of 157 children reported on their respective parenting stress when children were 18 months old. Both parents also reported on child behavior problems when children were 4 years old. Parent-reported infant temperamental difficultness at 15 months of age as well as child sex and family socioeconomic status were controlled for in the models. Path analyses suggested that both paternal and maternal parenting stress uniquely predicted child externalizing behaviors. A significant interaction between both parents’ parenting stress was also found, such that higher paternal parenting stress predicted more child externalizing behaviors at low and average levels of maternal stress, but not at high levels. Only maternal stress predicted higher levels of internalizing problems. The results of this longitudinal study suggest that paternal parenting stress may be of salient importance in the development of child externalizing behavior problems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
