Note. N (Total) reflects the number of participants in the full sample. Missing (%) was calculated as (Missing n / N Total) × 100. [1] The 14-item Familism Scale (Sabogal et al., 1987) assesses cultural values related to familial obligation, support, and referents, using items rated on a Likert-type scale. Higher scores indicate stronger familistic values. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS; Cox et al., 1987) is a 10-item screening tool for postpartum depressive symptoms, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. [3] The Brief Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D; Santor & Coyne, 1997) is a 10-item self-report measure assessing depressive symptoms experienced in the past week. [4] The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS; Cohen et al., 1983) is a widely used 10-item measure evaluating the degree to which situations in one’s life are appraised as stressful.
