Abstract
In new parents, postpartum depression (PPD) in women is highly correlated with increased paternal investment in offsprings. Participants used self-report measures to test relationship strength between couple satisfaction and PPD. The results of the study did not support our predictions, likely due to the nature of online surveys.
