Parental Mentalization

Presenter: Helana JV Rutherford, PhD

Discussant: Norka Malberg, PsyD

 

Pregnancy and the postpartum period can be conceptualized as a time of neurobiological and psychological reorganization to facilitate caregiving. However, surprisingly few studies have examined the interface of the neurobiology and psychology of the perinatal period. Such an integrative approach is needed to advance our understanding of this significant time for parent and child development. In particular, the psychological construct of parental mentalization is thought critical to parent and child well-being and has been the focus of many attachment-based parenting interventions. Although a number of approaches to measure parental mentalization have been developed, we know surprisingly little of its underlying neurobiology. Emerging research from our lab has adopted a social neuroscience lens to begin unpacking the neurobiology of this important parental capacity. Through our empirical work, we seek to identify the mechanisms underscoring parental mentalization to advance both theory and clinical practice.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe the perinatal period as being a time for neurobiological and psychological reorganization
  2. Summarize the different approaches to measure parental mentalization in research
  3. Critique the utility of social neuroscience to our understanding of parental mentalization
