abstract="OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this article was to describe the findings from a systematic review, quality review, and meta-analysis of risk factors for postpartum  depression among adult Latinas in the United States. <br><br>METHODS: Databases were  searched from inception to May 2020 for studies published in English related to  Latina/Hispanic mothers and risk factors of postpartum depression. Of 115 abstracts  screened, 10 met the inclusion criteria for the review and meta-analysis. Eleven  risk factors from these studies were included: acculturation, age, economic stress,  education, marital status, number of children, prenatal depression, recent and  remote intimate partner violence (IPV), general social support, and partner/father's  social support. <br><br>RESULTS: Partner/father's social support had a large effect size. Prenatal depression and recent IPV had medium effect sizes, while education,  economic stress, general social support and remote IPV had small effect sizes. Negligible effect sizes were found for age, marital status, number of children, and  acculturation. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Prenatal depression, IPV, social support (general and  from partner/father), economic stress and education are risk factors that should be  screened for when working with perinatal Latinas. Future directions for clinical  practice and research are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
