Parent and Peer Attachments in Adolescence and Paternal Postpartum Mental Health: Findings From the ATP Generation 3 Study

Abstract: Background: When adolescent boys experience close, secure relationships with their parents and peers, the implications are potentially far reaching, including lower levels of mental health problems in adolescence and young adulthood. Here we use rare prospective intergenerational data to extend our understanding of the impact of adolescent attachments on subsequent postpartum mental health problems in early fatherhood.Methods: At age 17–18 years, we used an abbreviated Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment t… Show more

“…However, since the late 1950s, the literature on fathers’ depressive reactions during their wives’ pregnancies has not kept pace with that on women’s perinatal depression (1733 records on PubMed on 13 August 2022 vs. 11,602 results on the same database on the same day). This disparity is regretted by investigators of fathers’ perinatal depression, because its consequence is that fewer resources are available for dedicated programs directed to counteracting paternal depression [ 7 , 8 ]. The fact that there are no diagnostic criteria for paternal depression in commonly accepted diagnostic systems [ 9 ] renders this disparity a natural consequence.…”

“…We have also examined pre-conception relational factors, finding that prospectively assessed attachment security in adolescence reduced risk for postpartum mental health difficulties (OR range =0.62–0.55), 34 and perceived social support assessed prospectively during both the preconception and postpartum periods enhanced relationship quality and social support during the COVID-19 pandemic (β range =0.11–0.22). 35 …”

“…31 Higher levels of infant reactivity and behaviour problems were also observed in infants of mothers with a history of mental health problems in both adolescence and young adulthood compared with those without problems during these periods (β range =0.38-0.52). 32 33 We have also examined pre-conception relational factors, finding that prospectively assessed attachment security in adolescence reduced risk for postpartum mental health difficulties (OR range =0.62-0.55), 34 and perceived social support assessed prospectively during both the preconception and postpartum periods enhanced relationship quality and social support during the COVID-19 pandemic (β range =0.11-0.22). 35 STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS ATPG3 is unique in its three-generation prospective design with 15 waves of preconception data in females and males from infancy to adulthood (27-28 years) and comprehensive assessments of next generation offspring from pregnancy to early childhood.…”
