Postpartum depression (PPD) is a highly prevalent and serious mental health problem and is defined as the most recent episode of depression occurring between four weeks and twelve months after childbirth. PPD has negative effects, which are usually strongest during the first six months and may decrease the quality of mother-child interaction, adversely affecting the child's behavior and emotional and cognitive development, as well as the spouse marital relationship.PPD prevalence is estimated at 10 to 20%. A recent studies among Arab-Bedouin women, reported 31% - 43 of PPD. Aims: To develop and implement a culturally appropriate intervention program by using focus group (FGs) methodology Methods and Research program description: The study includes two phases. First, qualitative study will be conducted by using focus groups (FGs) method and based on the results of this phase we will develop a culturally based program. The second phase will include implementation and evaluation of the effectiveness of a culturally appropriate intervention.
Rationale and Hypotheses of the Current Research: the investigators speculate that mothers suffering from PPD exhibit high levels of depression and low levels of OXT, hence experiencing the interaction with their child as less rewarding, which in turn promote further depressive symptoms and interfere with child development. While dyadic psychotherapy has been studied in this context, it is unknown which depressed women will respond to this type of therapy, and whether such a response is mediated by the pro-bonding effect of oxytocin. The aim of this study is three-fold: 1. To study the effect of the administration of a single dose (24IU) of oxytocin on cerebral circuit processing and connectivity of empathy and attachment. 2. To examine whether the clinical response of mothers suffering from postpartum depression to short term dyadic psychotherapy (based on improved mother-child interactions) can be predicted by a unique brain response pattern to oxytocin. 3. To assess the relationship between levels of oxytocin in mother and baby and the effectiveness of psychological dyadic treatment on mothers suffering from postpartum depression.
