Thesis (Ph.D.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2005.
Although it is well documented that an optimistic orientation is beneficial when coping with stressful life events, I proposed that prior to a major life transition a realistic orientation (giving thought to both positive and negative possibilities) is most adaptive. Two studies were conducted to assess the effect of a realistic orientation in the context of the transition to motherhood. In study 1, designed to establish validity and reliability of a new self-report measure of realistic orientation, 181 women, pregnant with their first child, were assessed on their orientation to motherhood (OM), optimism-pessimism (LOT-R), personality traits and depressive affect. In addition to establishing some reliability and validity for the scale, Study 1 indicated that OM significantly predicted depression scores over and above optimism. Women demonstrating a realistic orientation did not differ significantly from the more positively oriented group on depressive affect, however, they were significantly different from the more negatively oriented group, who reported the most depressive symptomatology.

Study 2 was designed to assess the benefits of a realistic orientation after women give birth and undertake the transition to motherhood. In Study 2, 69 women expecting their first child were interviewed during the third trimester of pregnancy, and again 3 months postnatal. Orientation to motherhood, personal projects, depressive affect, and psychological well-being were assessed at the prenatal interview, and all but the OM scale were assessed at the postnatal interview. Findings of this prospective study indicated that a realistic orientation during pregnancy is associated with lower levels of depressive affect, higher levels of psychological well-being (controlling for prenatal depression and well-being) and more adaptive restructuring of personal projects at postnatal than either a positive or negative orientation, particularly when the transition was accompanied by negative surprises. The data suggest that a prenatal orientation to motherhood that includes thoughts of positive and negative possibilities facilitates a smoother transition to motherhood. More generally, the data suggest that a realistic orientation may be adaptive insofar as it fosters anticipatory coping activity.
