Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the preliminary effectiveness of a short mentalization community video feedback intervention designed to improve maternal mentalization, maternal communication, and behavior quality of adolescent and young mothers. Twenty-six young and adolescent mother-infant dyads were recruited at an Italian outpatient hospital service for adolescent and young parents with a one-group pre-test\/post-test design. The participants (n = 15) received four video feedback sessions focused on mentalization and affective communication. At 3 infant months, risk factors associated with young motherhood were assessed. At 3 infant months (pre-intervention) and 9 months (post-intervention), the quality of maternal communication and behavior has been evaluated with Atypical Maternal Behavior Instrument for Assessment and Classification (AMBIANCE), and maternal mind-mindedness was assessed. Results: At the end of the intervention, the results showed significant improvements in maternal communication quality and mind-mindedness, especially in decreasing disrupted maternal affective communication (p = 0.005) and non-attuned mind-mindedness comments (p = 0.005). Conclusions: This study highlighted good acceptance of the intervention in a public health context and the effectiveness of a short mentalization community video feedback intervention to improve maternal mind-mindedness and communication quality between young mothers and their infants. The preliminary findings of this pilot study could be useful for implementing similar interventions aimed at young parents in community contexts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/children13010044","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,29]],"date-time":"2025-12-29T08:47:27Z","timestamp":1766998047000},"page":"44","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effectiveness of a Short Mentalization Video Feedback Intervention Aimed at Adolescent and Young Mother\u2013Infant Dyads: A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Elena","family":"Ierardi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Milano-Bicocca, 20126 Milan, Italy"},{"name":"ASST Santi Paolo Carlo Hospital, 20142 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2510-3949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria Elena","family":"Magrin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Milano-Bicocca, 20126 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alessandro","family":"Albizzati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ASST Santi Paolo Carlo Hospital, 20142 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Margherita","family":"Moioli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ASST Santi Paolo Carlo Hospital, 20142 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Renata","family":"Tambelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dynamic, Clinical and Health Psychology, University of Roma Sapienza, 00185 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cristina","family":"Riva Crugnola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Milano-Bicocca, 20126 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Does anyone suffer from teenage motherhood?
