“…Recently, the study of the developmental pathways to adult psychopathology has become a fruitful method for delineating heterogeneity and examining mechanisms [Hill et al, 2004;Kendler et al, 2004;Vythilingam et al, 2002]. Ultimately, prospective studies are required, however retrospective approaches can yield valuable pointers over much shorter time spans, and in relation to targeted adult clinical disorders [Widom et al, 2004].…”

“…For example, multiple environmental and genetic risk factors for depression have been identified, but these do not operate uniformly across subgroups defined by age of onset [Hill et al, 2004;Jaffee et al, 2002]. Identifying key differences within psychopathological groups represents a major challenge, conceptually and empirically [Angold and Pickles, 2003].…”

Prospective longitudinal studies have shown strong predictions from conduct disorders (CDs) in childhood to antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and violence in adults. However, little is known of the childhood antecedents of serious violence nor whether these may vary depending on the context in which the violence occurs. In this study, 54 men aged 21-40 years serving prison sentences for violent crime were assessed. Standardized interviews of ASPD and violence were conducted independently of interviews covering retrospective recall of childhood psychiatric disorders and adverse experiences. Analyses of the predictors of overall violence suggested a pathway involving childhood CD and adult ASPD associated with interparental discord, and an additional pathway associated with experiencing interparental violence in childhood. Different results were however obtained when account was taken of the context of the violence. The CD-ASPD pathway was associated with social violence, but not with partner violence. Partner violence was predicted by retrospective reports of having been exposed to interparental violence during childhood but not by reports of childhood CD or adult ASPD. Thus developmental pathways to serious violence may be different depending on the social domain in which the violence occurs.

“…Hypotheses have been raised regarding differing etiological origin of adolescent onset depression compared to adult onset depression, since the former phenotype is more sensitive to environmental influences, and has a higher comorbidity with externalizing conditions (Hill et al, 2004;Jaffee et al, 2002;Laucht et al, 2009). Moreover, the extensive comorbidity has also given rise to questions about whether particular risk factors for specific disorders could actually be seen as general risk factors for a broader predisposition of mental health problems (Kessler et al, 2011).…”

“…These do not establish that maternal depression is the key risk because it is associated with other psychiatric disorders and psychosocial risks. For example, many women with depression have a history of conduct problems and marked interpersonal difficulties in adult life (Jaffee et al 2002a;Hill et al 2004). Rates of conduct disorders in the children of mothers with depression and antisocial personality disorder are higher than among those with depression only (Kim-Cohen et al 2006a).…”

This paper considers how environmental threat may contribute to the child's use of avoidant strategies to regulate negative emotions, and how this may interact with high emotional reactivity to create vulnerability to conduct disorder symptoms. We report a study based on the hypothesis that interpreting others' behaviours in terms of their motives and emotions-using the intentional stance-promotes effective social action, but may lead to fear in threatful situations, and that inhibiting the intentional stance may reduce fear but promote conduct disorder symptoms. We assessed 5-year-olds' use of the intentional stance with an intentionality scale, contrasting high and low threat doll play scenarios. In a sample of 47 children of mothers with post-natal depression (PND) and 35 controls, children rated as securely attached with their mothers at the age of 18 months were better able to preserve the intentional stance than insecure children in high threat scenarios, but not in low threat scenarios. Girls had higher intentionality scores than boys across all scenarios. Only intentionality in the high threat scenario was associated with teacher-rated conduct disorder symptoms, and only in the children of women with PND. Intentionality mediated the associations between attachment security and gender and conduct disorder symptoms in the PND group.

Juvenile- versus adult-onset depression: multiple differences imply different pathways

Abstract: The juvenile- versus adult-onset distinction appears to be important to heterogeneity in adult depression, implicating different individual and environmental factors during childhood, and different mechanisms in adult life.
