Maternal mental well-being: challenges and implications for the family institution
Item Type: Article

Year: 00/06/2025
Abstract: Maternal mental well-being is a key determinant of overall family well-being. However, various modern challenges negatively impact mothers’ well-being and increase the risk of parental burnout. This study aims to examine the roles and involvement of mothers in family institutions, their perceptions of motherhood, the key challenges they face, and the current status of their mental health status. The study involved 3,988 Malaysian mothers aged 18 and above with children. Data were collected through an online survey in May 2024 using a convenience sampling method and analysed descriptively using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Findings indicate that mothers play a dominant role in doing housework (48.0%), managing children’s education (41.0%), ensuring daily needs are met (36.6%) and maintaining family health (34.8%). In terms of perception, most Malaysian mothers believe that being a mother today is more challenging than in the past. The primary challenges faced by mothers include the rising cost of living (80.0%), work-family imbalance (66.8%) and financial stress (58.9%). The study found that 32.2% of respondents reported experiencing depression due to these challenges, with 10.3% frequently feeling depressed. Additionally, only 16.6% of mothers felt that society truly understands the struggles they face. This study highlights the need for integrated interventions such as family-friendly policies, flexible work arrangements, and stronger social support to help mothers manage their mental well-being. These measures can alleviate maternal stress, contributing to family stability and overall societal well-being.

Abstract: The National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN) established a new framework for family research in Malaysia by introducing the Family Well-Being Index (FWBI) in 2011 to measure the level of family well-being. To continue the effort of measuring and monitoring family well-being, LPPKN conducted the fourth series of the FWBI Study in 2022 and subsequently published the 2022 Family Well-Being Index Report (FWBI 2022).
Out of 8,460 households visited, a total of 5,236 respondents were successfully interviewed, consisting of 2,784 (53.2%) fathers and 2,452 (46.8%) mothers. The majority of respondents were aged between 40 and 49 years, Malay, still married, had secondary education, and resided in urban areas. More than two-thirds (68.9%) of respondents were from the B40 group with a household income of less than RM4,850.00. In terms of family structure, three-quarters (75.3%) of respondents belonged to nuclear households, where the father, mother, and children live together.
The FWBI 2022 showed that the level of family well-being was at a moderate level, with a score of 7.93 out of a maximum scale of 10.00. The 2022 FWBI score recorded an increase of 0.21 points or 2.7 percent compared to FWBI 2019. This improvement was contributed by five domains that scored above 8.00, namely:
(i) Family Relationship Domain (8.44);
(ii) Family, Religion, and Spiritual Practices Domain (8.37);
(iii) Family and Community Involvement Domain (8.24);
(iv) Family and Communication Technology Domain (8.18); and
