“…At age 5 and age 14 interviews, mothers were asked if they or their current partner had ever been imprisoned. We construct a variable used by Roettger and colleagues [10] to indicate if the mother indicated she or her partner had been held in detention at either wave. Child Behavioral Problems.…”

“…One research question which has not been addressed are whether early childhood emotional problems and PI may be linked with cardiometabolic risk in later life. Longitudinal studies suggest that delinquency and depression differentiate risk for increased BMI among females who experience PI in adulthood [9,37]; however, potential interrelationships between PI and early childhood mental health and behavioral issues has, to our knowledge, not been explored. Research suggests a potential association between early childhood behaviors and psychiatric illness with adult obesity and BMI gain [38][39][40], while other research suggests that ACEs are associated with a range of childhood emotional and behavioral problems [41,42].…”

“…Another major limitation of previous research on PI is the lack of longitudinal and prospective cohort studies in general population studies, both generally and with measures of physical health [13,53]. One recent prospective cohort study found that PI in early childhood (≥ 5 age) was associated with a range of cardiovascular risks, but did not nd an association for a larger group of children reporting PI through age 14 [10]. The present study builds on these ndings by examining if PI through age 14 and cardiometabolic risk is mediated by early childhood problems.…”

Objectives Recent studies have demonstrated that parental imprisonment (PI) is associated with cardiometabolic risk later in life. However, underlying risk factors for these associations have not previously been explored. The present study examines how early childhood behaviors and parental imprisonment may be associated with cardiometabolic risk in adulthood. Methods The study follows a subset of 7,223 live, singleton births from 1981–1984 in Brisbane, Australia where data was collected on parental imprisonment at ages 5 & 14 and behaviors from the Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) at age 5. Our sample examines 1884 males and 1758 females whose mothers completed prenatal, age 5, and age 14 interviews and respondents completed one or more interviews at ages 14, 21, and 30. Multivariate regression was used to examine cross-sectional results, while individual growth models examined longitudinal patterns. Results Dividing analysis by sex, we examined how parental imprisonment was potentially mediated or moderated by CBCL subscale measures for aggression, social-attention-thought disorders and general internalizing. No associations were found among male respondents. Among female respondents, controlling for these behaviors, there was a significant association between parental imprisonment and higher systolic blood pressure at age 30, while all CBCL measures were found to moderate waist circumference at age 30 and BMI at ages 14, 21, and 30. Using individual growth curve modelling, we observed the increased CBCL aggression and SAT scores were more strongly associated with higher BMI in adulthood. Conclusions Using prospective cohort data, our results suggest that PI and high levels of behavioral problems are associated with significantly increased cardiometabolic risk in women, with potentially increasing risk in adulthood.

“…Subsequently, researchers proposed a random intercept cross-lagged panel model (RI-CLPM), which is a multilevel method that can separate within-person processes from stable between-person differences in the case of within-individual nested measures (45). In 2022, a study in the United States introduced the concept of random intercept when examining the relationship between family SLEs (parental incarceration) and children’s BMI, and the results showed that the occurrence of parental incarceration was associated with an increase in BMI in girls, but no significant association in boys (46).…”

Objective Psychological stress (PS) has always been a hot topic for researchers to investigate the potential determinants of childhood overweight/obesity. Up to now, cohort studies investigating the relationship between PS and childhood obesity have used different ways to assess PS, different indicators to measure obesity, and different analysis methods, and the results were also inconsistent. Methods Data were obtained from the second to eighth follow-up of an ongoing cohort of school-aged children in Chongqing, China (June 2015–June 2018), with seven waves (W1–W7, N W1 = 1419). The latent growth curve model was used to estimate the co-developmental trends between PS and obesity (body mass index [BMI], waist-to-height ratio [WHtR]). Random intercept cross-lagged panel models were constructed to examine their longitudinal bidirectional associations. Results The changes in PS and obesity (BMI, WHtR) were co-developing (r BMI = −1.105, p = .003; r WHtR = −0.991, p = .004). Longitudinal models showed significant negative correlations between PS and obesity at the between-person level (r BMI = −4.993; r WHtR = −1.591). BMI at W3 could negatively predict PS 6 months later (β = −1.508, p = .027), and WHtR at W1 could negatively predict PS at W3 (β = −2.809, p = .014). Different aspects of PS had different associations with obesity. Notably, there was a significant reciprocal relationship between peer interaction PS and obesity. Conclusions Different aspects of PS were differentially associated with obesity. Notably, there may be a clear reciprocal relationship between peer interaction PS and obesity. These findings provide new directions for protecting children’s mental health to prevent or control childhood overweight/obesity.

“…For example, both maternal and paternal incarceration were associated with higher odds of risky sleep and eating behaviors linked to obesity risk during childhood ( Jackson & Vaughn, 2017 ), even if the parent was not currently incarcerated ( Hiolski et al, 2019 ). Parental imprisonment before child age 5 years was associated with later higher BMI at ages 14, 21, and 30 ( Roettger et al, 2022 ). Decreases in overweight risk have also been observed if one or both parents were ever incarcerated ( Branigan & Wildeman, 2019 ), though two studies have found father incarceration alone was unrelated to risk for childhood overweight ( Branigan and Wildeman, 2017 , 2019 ).…”
