abstract = {The existence of psychological distress (PD) during pregnancy is well established. Nevertheless, few
studies have analyzed the PD and resilience of mothers and fathers during high-risk pregnancy. This study analyzes
the differences between parents’ PD and resilience and the relation between them and the neurobehavioral
performance of their SGA newborns. Multivariate analysis of variance showed, in gender comparisons, that mothers obtained higher scores than
fathers for psychological distress but lower ones for resilience. Similar differences were obtained in the comparison
of parents’ distress to intrauterine growth by SGA vs. AGA newborns. Mothers of SGA newborns were more
distressed than the other groups. However, there were no differences between the fathers of SGA vs. AGA
newborns. Regarding neurobehavioral performance, the profiles of SGA newborns reflected a lower degree of
maturity than those of AGA newborns. Hierarchical regression analyses showed that high stress and low resilience
among mothers partially predict low neurobehavioral performance in SGA newborns. These findings indicate that mothers of SGA newborns may need psychological support to relieve
stress and improve their resilience. Furthermore, attention should be paid to the neurobehavioral performance of
their babies in case early attention is needed},
