Abstract
This study analyzed psychosocial factors associated with coparenting support among Brazilian adoptive parents. 148 Brazilian adoptive parents aged 20 to 55 years (M = 39.16; SD = 6.89), and primarily heterosexual (87.76%), responded to an online survey. Descriptive, bivariate and multiple linear regression analyses were performed. Symptoms of common mental disorders were negatively correlated with coparenting support, whereas marital satisfaction and support networks had positive associations with coparenting support. In a regression model, marital satisfaction and symptoms of common mental disorders contributed significantly to the explanation of coparenting support. Our findings inform those who work to support the adaptation of adoptive families.
