Those factors can be related to children's socioemotional development problems. The present study aims to: a) analyze the relationship between maternal self-efficacy and the levels of stress and depressive and anxious symptoms, in adolescent mothers; b) examine the relationship between maternal self-efficacy and well-being and children's socioemotional development; and c) describe the effects of maternal self-efficacy mediated of maternal well-being on children's socioemotional development. Methods: A sample of 79 dyads of Chilean adolescent mothers and their children aged 10 to 24 months participated in this research. A set of psychometric scales were used to measure maternal self-efficacy (EEP), mother's anxiety and depression (HADS), maternal stress (PSS), and children's socioemotional development (ASQ-SE). Bivariate analyses as well as mediation models were employed to estimate and test the relevant relationships. Results: A bivariate analysis showed that maternal self-efficacy was negatively related to mother's anxiety, depression, and stress. Moreover, there is a significant relationship between maternal self-efficacy and maternal stress, and children's self-regulation and socioemotional development. The effect of maternal self-efficacy on children's self-regulation development mediated of mother's anxiety, mother's depression and maternal stress scores was significant. Conclusions: Those results confirm the importance of the adolescent mothers' emotional well-being regarding their relationship on the socioemotional development of their children. The preceding is necessary to have detailed information about how emotional and self-perception status influences mother's role in the development of her children.PeerJ2022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2445/192560Articles publicats en revistes (Cognició, Desenvolupament i Psicologia de l'Educació)reponame:Dipòsit Digital de la UBinstname:Universidad de BarcelonaInglésReproducció del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.13162PeerJ, 2022, vol. 10, p. 13162https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.13162cc-by (c) Léniz-Maturana, Laura et al., 2022https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:diposit.ub.edu:2445/1925602026-05-27T06:46:51Z
