Questionnaires were administered to 492 first\u2010time mothers, 37 of whom had a history of abortion, and their partners (n\u00a0=\u00a0436). Women with previous miscarriages, ectopic pregnancies, and deliveries were excluded. The women were allocated to an abortion group or a comparison group, depending on each woman's abortion history obtained from medical birth registry data. Psychological well\u2010being, which encompassed social and emotional loneliness, marital satisfaction, social phobia, and depression, was evaluated as a predictor of maternal and paternal self\u2010efficacy within the two groups. The analysis was conducted using multi\u2010group structural equation modeling.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Induced abortion was not predictive of maternal or paternal well\u2010being or parental self\u2010efficacy. Overall, maternal and paternal psychological well\u2010being was predictive of parental self\u2010efficacy when an assessment was performed, regardless of an abortion history. After testing the invariance of multi\u2010group models, psychological well\u2010being was similarly found to predict parental self\u2010efficacy in both the abortion history and comparison groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>These findings suggest that the psychological well\u2010being of parents is an important predictor of maternal and paternal self\u2010efficacy during toddlerhood.
