There is extensive evidence on the negative effects of maternal depression and parenting stress on child development. Specifically, there is a robust body of literature suggesting that depression and stress decrease maternal responsiveness which affects the mother-child interactions and relationship. This disruption in the dyad may hinder appropriate child self-regulation development which has been extensively linked to important outcomes (e.g., school readiness, academic achievement, social-emotional competence). However, most of this research work has focused on White European families which considerably differ from the rapidly growing Latino population in the United States.The present cross-sectional study sought to examine the associations among maternal distress (maternal depression and parenting stress), parenting behaviors, and child self-regulation while considering racial stress (stress of immigration and perceived racism) in a community sample of 150 Latina mother-child dyads across the country. This study also explored the moderating effects of cultural factors such as acculturation, ethnic identity, and social support on these associations. Latina mothers of preschool aged children participated remotely by completing a demographic questionnaire via phone call and filling out several self-report, standardized surveys assessing aspects of maternal distress, parenting, and child behavior. Several regression analyses were conducted. Findings from this study indicate that in a low-risk sample of Latina mother-child dyads higher levels of maternal distress were negatively associated with child self-regulation even when controlling for child sex. Results also showed that this relation may be partially mediated by negative parenting. Although in this sample racial stress was not significantly correlated with child self-regulation, it was positively correlated with maternal distress suggesting that culture specific stressors significantly contribute to reductions in maternal psychological well-being./xiste amplia evidencia sobre los efectos negativos de la depresion materna y el estres de los padres en el desarrollo infantil. Especificamente, existe un solido cuerpo de literatura que sugiere que la depresion y el estres disminuyen la capacidad de respuesta materna, lo que afecta las interacciones y la relacion madre-hijo. Esta interrupcion en la diada puede obstaculizar el desarrollo adecuado de la autorregulacion infantil, la cual ha sido ligada a importantes resultados del desarrollo (p. ej., preparacion escolar, rendimiento academico, competencia socioemocional). Sin embargo, la mayor parte de este trabajo de investigacion se ha centrado en familias blancas de origen Anglo-europeo, que difieren considerablemente de la poblacion Latina la cual presenta un rapido crecimiento en los Estados Unidos.El presente estudio transversal busco examinar las asociaciones entre la angustia materna (depresion materna y estres parental), los comportamientos de crianza y la autorregulacion infantil al considerar el estres racial (estres de la inmigracion y racismo percibido) en una muestra comunitaria de 150 diadas latinas madre-hijo(a). Este estudio tambien exploro los efectos moderadores de factores culturales como la aculturacion, la identidad etnica y el apoyo social en estas asociaciones. Las madres latinas de ninos en edad preescolar participaron de forma remota completando un cuestionario demografico a traves de una llamada telefonica y completando varias encuestas estandarizadas de autoinforme que evaluan aspectos de la angustia materna, la crianza de los hijos y el comportamiento infantil. Se realizaron varios analisis de regresion para contestar a tres preguntas de investigacion. Los hallazgos de este estudio indican que en una muestra de bajo riesgo de diadas latinas madre-hijo, los niveles mas altos de angustia materna se asociaron negativamente con la autorregulacion del nino, incluso controlado por sexo. Los resultados tambien mostraron que esta relacion puede estar parcialmente mediada por la crianza negativa. Aunque en esta muestra el estres racial no se correlaciono significativamente con la autorregulacion infantil, se correlaciono positivamente con la angustia materna, lo que sugiere que los factores estresantes particulares de la cultura latina, contribuyen significativamente a la reduccion en el bienestar psicologico materno./
