Summary

The objective of this treatment study is to develop and test an augmentation therapy in conjunction with maternal psychiatric treatment that targets the fathers' support of the mothers' mental health and contributions to the family environment to reduce maternal stress. The African-American Social Support Effectiveness Treatment-Partners alleviating Perinatal Depression (ASSET-PPD) intervention will be delivered to fathers in an individual setting to target the context in which a mother lives to expand her support beyond the direct reach of her treatment professional. This study provides skills and training to fathers who have a partner with prenatal depression. The aim is to reduce maternal depression during the perinatal period and improve the family environment for the infant.

African-American Social Support Effectiveness Treatment-Partners alleviating Perinatal Depression (ASSET-PPD)

This proposed novel intervention has four prenatal modules and two postpartum review sessions addressing key correlates of Perinatal Depression (PND) with the largest effect sizes by targeting fathers': 1) prenatal and postpartum family involvement; 2) mental health psychoeducation; 3) interparental communication and relationship skills; and 4) balanced division of family tasks. The intervention is based on the stress-generation and cognitive-behavior theories to frame skill-based individual sessions of didactics, interactive training, and trackable objectives.
