Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar dimensiones relativas al contexto familiar y laboral, y examinar su contribución al nivel de estrés asociado a la paternidad. Se analizó el papel desempeñado por la percepción de competencia, tanto del padre como de la madre, una vez controladas algunas características de ambos contextos. Se realizaron análisis con la información obtenida de 74 progenitores que, en el momento de la evaluación, disponían de un puesto laboral y cuidaban al menos a un menor en edad escolar. Los resultados indicaron que la dedicación laboral, el número de hijos y la percepción de dificultad en el cuidado del menor, fueron las variables más robustas para explicar el estrés parental. Asimismo, los análisis mostraron que una evaluación positiva y optimista del papel que la persona desempeña en la educación y el cuidado de sus hijos, tendió a atenuar la aparición de estrés parental.
