Both had significantly reduced eights-weeks later. Greater self-compassion predicted lower anxiety and depression, and better well-being, in both cross-sectional and longitudinal data, including when all confounders were controlled for. Illness uncertainty and illness appraisals were less consistent predictors. No robust differences were found between parents of infants with silent GORD and those with GORD with visible regurgitation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Parents of infants with GORD showed high rates of anxiety and depression, which were elevated compared to those that have been found in perinatal and general population samples. Self-compassion was a consistent predictor of better mental health and has promise as a proximal intervention target. Future research could benefit from examining the efficacy of a compassion-focussed intervention in this population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/13591045231164866","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,20]],"date-time":"2023-03-20T09:34:09Z","timestamp":1679304849000},"page":"1024-1037","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Paediatric gastroesophageal reflux disease and parental mental health: Prevalence and predictors"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Elizabeth GM","family":"Aizlewood","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Salomons Institute for Applied Psychology, Canterbury Christ Church University, Tunbridge Wells, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9459-6631","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fergal W","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Salomons Institute for Applied Psychology, Canterbury Christ Church University, Tunbridge Wells, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rachel M","family":"Whatmough","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Salomons Institute for Applied Psychology, Canterbury Christ Church University, Tunbridge Wells, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-13591045231164866","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyt.2019.00391"},{"key":"bibr100-13591045231164866","unstructured":"Atroszko P.
