Parental burnout: revisión del alcance

revisión del alcance, según el Instituto Joanna Briggs. Búsqueda en enero de 2021, en seis bases de datos de publicaciones en inglés, portugués o español, sin límite de tiempo. Datos extraídos y analizados descriptivamente por tres investigadores independientes.

Resultados:

se capturaron 374 artículos y se incluyeron 20 en la muestra final, todos publicados en inglés, a partir de 2017. El burnout parental es un problema complejo y multifactorial, distinto de los casos de burnout, síntomas depresivos y otras alteraciones de la salud mental. Afecta entre el 0,2 y el 20% de los padres, cuenta con instrumentos de medición validados y adecuados y, si no se trata, puede tener consecuencias en la vida conyugal, las relaciones laborales, el abandono y la violencia contra el niño.

Conclusiones:

este es un tema reciente que necesita ser explorado, por el posible impacto en la salud de los niños y las familias y en los procesos laborales de los padres. Protocolo registrado en el Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/jd7vk).

1. A step forward in the conceptualization and measurement of parental burnout: The Parental Burnout Assessment (PBA)⁽¹⁶⁾16 Roskam I, Brianda M-E, Mikolajczak M. A step forward in the conceptualization and measurement of Parental Burnout: the parental burnout assessment (PBA). Front Psychol. 2018;9:758. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.00758 https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.00758...	Belgium, 2018	Describe steps in the construction of an instrument to measure and assess parental burnout and support its conceptualization.	Methodological study through survey/ 901 parents	The instrument consisted of 50 items, with responses in a Likert-type scale (related to frequency), divided into three subscales: I- emotional exhaustion; II – emotional distance and III – parents’ loss of fulfillment. The instrument proved to be valid; however, it must be suitable for different languages and cultures. Parental psychological traits, parental factors and family functioning contributed to the occurrence of parental burnout.	100%
2. A theoretical and clinical framework for parental burnout: the balance between risks and resources (BR²)⁽¹⁷⁾17 Mikolajczak M, Roskam I. A theoretical and clinical framework for Parental Burnout: the balance between risks and resources (BR2). Front Psychol. 2018;9:886. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.00886 https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.00886...	Belgium, 2018	Test a theoretical model of balance between risk factors and resources in parental burnout.	Longitudinal/ 923 parents	The instrument reliably measured parents’ balance between risks and resources. A strong relationship was identified between the model and the Parental Burnout Assessment (PBA). The model was found to predict parental exhaustion. Risks and resources not specific to parenting predict work and parental burnout. Parenting-specific risks and resources only predict parental burnout. Imbalances between risk and resources are common to all parents with parental burnout.	100%
3. Exhausted parents: development and preliminary validation of the parental burnout inventory⁽⁶⁾6 Roskam I, Raes M-E, Mikolajczak M.

Methodological study through survey/ 2,102 parents	The parental burnout inventory showed adequate validity and reliability; the 22 items had strong psychometric properties.

France, 2018	Replicate the PBA and analyze the influence of sociodemographic factors and parent and child personality traits in detected cases of parental burnout.	Longitudinal/ 372 parents	Younger parents – higher personal achievement scores and higher exhaustion scores. The number of children was associated with greater emotional distance between parents and children. Parental traits – meticulousness and lack of emotional control were at risk for burnout. Children with lack of control and meticulousness – associated with parental burnout. High level of neuroticism associated with parents’ lower sense of accomplishment, greater exhaustion and distance. Parental personality influenced 42.3% of cases of parental burnout and children’s personality contributed in 13.8% of cases.	100%

On the day a parent felt exhausted, high exhaustion was detected in the partner. The greater the exhaustion, the greater the perception of support. Mothers felt more exhausted and fathers were supportive. Early intervention normalizes ambiguity, frustration and exhaustion. Greater motivation in being a good parent and partner leads to greater fit in the relationship. The study points to the need for couple therapy when high levels of exhaustion are detected in both partners.	100%
