Weaver A Longitudinal Study of Parenting Self-Efficacy in First-Time Mothers 2010 .txt text/plain 289 9 39 Results are discussed in terms of maternal risk for low PSE, recommendations for PSE measurement, and the implementation of intervention programming designed to facilitate the development of PSE among at-risk mothers.
