Dilemmas Concerning the Quality of Parenting Skills Among People with Mental Disorders in Slovenia

Dilemmas about the quality of parenting skills in people with mental disorder in slovenia

The study aims to measure psychiatrists’, obstetrician-gynecologists’, pediatricians’, and family physicians’ explicit attitudes and implicit diagnostic biases toward parents with mood, psychotic, and personality disorders using a vignette-based method.

Parental mental illness affects a substantial proportion of families worldwide: up to 45% of adult mental health service users are parents, and 10% to 23% of children live with a parent who has a mental illness. Parents with psychiatric diagnoses face significant stigma not only in society but also within healthcare, while cultural ideals of good parenting leave little room for psychiatric vulnerability. Growing evidence suggests that a psychiatric diagnosis alone can distort clinical risk assessments, regardless of observed parenting behavior, and that psychotic and personality disorders are viewed more negatively than mood disorders; however, physicians’ attitudes toward this population’s parenting capacity across different specialties remain underexplored. The study aims to assess psychiatrists’, obstetrician-gynecologists’, pediatricians’, and family physicians’ explicit attitudes and implicit diagnostic biases regarding the quality of parenting among people with mood, psychotic, and personality disorders, and to examine how professional training, clinical experience, and personal contact shape these beliefs. To this end, a purpose-designed cross-sectional survey combining a Likert-type attitude scale with clinical vignettes in which the diagnosis is varied will be administered to a sample spanning different medical specialties; the vignette method allows implicit bias to be identified by holding parenting behavior constant while changing only the parent’s psychiatric diagnosis. The study results will be presented at the congress, and marked differences in attitudes across specialties and diagnostic categories are expected. The findings are expected to inform the design of targeted anti-stigma training and evidence-based guidelines for assessing parenting capacity.
