This study included participants from the following locations:
Participants included 440 pregnant women: 222 women were randomly assigned to receive Promoting Parental Skills and Enhancing Attachment in Early Childhood (CAPEDP) and 218 were randomly assigned to the comparison group. Mothers were recruited and randomly assigned within 10 public maternity wards in Paris, France, before the 27th week of pregnancy. Mothers were eligible if they were first-time mothers and identified as high risk for maternal and infant depression, defined by at least one of the following risk factors: (1) less than 12 years of education, (2) planning to raise the child without the child’s father, or (3) low income. The sample of mothers was 22 years old, on average; 58 percent were French citizens; 52 percent were first-generation French immigrants; and 47 percent were low income.
Women were recruited for the study from 10 public maternity wards in Paris, France.
