Examining cumulative adverse and positive childhood experiences as determinants of youth violence
This study investigates the role of cumulative adverse and positive childhood experiences (ACEs and PCEs) in the development of youth violence using longitudinal data from the UK millennium cohort study (N = 18,282). Findings show a strong association between higher ACE exposure and increased likelihood of assault, weapon involvement, and gang affiliation in adolescence. Conversely, greater exposure to PCEs is associated with reduced youth violen…
Harmonised fertility histories in four British longitudinal cohort studies
BACKGROUNDSince World War II, Britain has witnessed significant societal changes, including in relation to fertility.Robust longitudinal and cross-cohort research requires data harmonisation to create comparable fertility measures to understand the predictors and consequences of these changes across generations. OBJECTIVEThis paper describes newly created datasets on fertility histories that have been derived and harmonised across four longitudin…
Adolescent motherhood and the development of adolescent Offspring
The study provides the first evidence on long-term outcomes of children born to teenage mothers for the UK. It studies the entire range of key developmental outcomes. It uses a novel decomposition to examine the relative importance of different variables for explaining variation in the outcomes of interest
Cyber offending predictors and pathways in middle adolescence
Despite the pervasiveness of cyber crime victimisation, knowledge is limited regarding the prevalence, characteristics and pathways of offenders. The present study examines predictors of self-reported engagement in cyber crime in middle adolescence in a large (N = 13,277) longitudinal dataset from the UK Millennium Cohort Study. We adopted an ecological systems approach to examine a range of multicausal, intersecting factors across individual, fa…
Longitudinal predictors of weapon involvement in middle adolescence
This study uses longitudinal data from the UK Millennium Cohort Study ( N = 13,277) to examine the childhood and early adolescence factors that predict weapon involvement in middle adolescence, which in this study is exemplified by having carried or used a weapon. It finds that childhood experiences of low family income and domestic abuse between parents predict weapon involvement at age 17 years. Other predictors include childhood externalizing …
Changes in the behavioural determinants of health during the Covid-19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have far-reaching consequences on population health. We investigated whether these consequences included changes in health-impacting behaviours which are important drivers of health inequalities. METHODS: Using data from five representative British cohorts (born 2000-2002, 1989-1990, 1970, 1958 and 1946), we investigated sleep, physical activity (exercise), diet and alcohol intake (N=14 297). We in…
Parental Perceptions of Learning Loss During Covid-19 School Closures in 2020
Schools across the UK were mostly closed from March to July 2020 due to Covid-19. Therefore, parents and children found themselves thrust into a prolonged period of home-schooling. In this study, parents (N = 2,122) reported on their children’s (N = 3,230) home-schooling experiences and its impacts on their children’s academic progress. Parental reports suggest that children spent around 3 hours each weekday doing schoolwork at home. Children enr…
