This study examined indirect effects of MotherWise, a community\u2010based perinatal program using the\n                    <jats:italic>Within My Reach<\/jats:italic>\n                    curriculum, on child social\u2013emotional well\u2010being. Perinatal individuals from marginalized groups were randomly assigned during pregnancy or within three months postpartum to the MotherWise program (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009512) or the no\u2010treatment control group (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u2009437). Three mechanisms were assessed at 12\u2010months post\u2010enrollment: general conflict management skills, romantic relationship skills, and disapproval of relationship violence. Child problem behaviors and social\u2013emotional competency were measured at 30\u2010months post\u2010enrollment. Path models were tested using Mplus to examine each mechanism individually and then all together in a combined model. Results are consistent with positive indirect effects of MotherWise on child outcomes. Compared to the control group, MotherWise participants reported better conflict management skills, romantic relationship skills, and greater disapproval of relationship violence at 12\u2010months post\u2010enrollment. These enhanced skills and knowledge were, in turn, associated with fewer problem behaviors and greater social\u2013emotional competency for children at 30\u2010months post\u2010enrollment. The combined model supported that disapproval of relationship violence uniquely contributed to MotherWise's indirect effects on both child outcomes, while romantic relationship skills uniquely contributed to children's social\u2013emotional competency. Results showed indirect benefits of individual\u2010oriented relationship education for children and suggest that clinicians and community\u2010based programs serving families can support child well\u2010being by providing relationship education to individual parents.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/famp.70189","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,1]],"date-time":"2026-09-01T02:33:17Z","timestamp":1788229997000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Indirect Effects of Individual\u2010Oriented Relationship Education on Children's Social\u2013Emotional Outcomes: A Randomized Controlled Trial of MotherWise"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"65","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9190-1474","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jenny","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology University of Denver  Denver Colorado USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4172-5943","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yunying","family":"Le","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology University of Denver  Denver Colorado USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3514-8139","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Galena K.","family":"Rhoades","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology University of Denver  Denver Colorado USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-642-69746-3_2"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/cfp0000241"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/15325024.2019.1581693"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10522158.2011.616482"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1752\u20100606.2012.00314.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","volume-title":"MotherWise: Implementation of a Healthy Marriage and Relationship Education Program for Pregnant and New Mothers","author":"Baumgartner S.","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jpepsy\/jsh017"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1077559520985934"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0022\u20103514.55.6.991"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1891\/1946-6560.3.2.231"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/15332691.2013.871615"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/famp.12172"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/fam0000852"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12905\u2010025\u201004078\u20103"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4324\/9781410612885"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/famp.12748"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_18_1","volume-title":"Measuring Violence\u2010Related Attitudes, Behaviors, and Influences Among Youths: A Compendium of Assessment Tools","author":"Dahlberg L.
