Social and family factors in childhood hospital admission
The relation between social, economic, and family life event measures and rates of hospital admission during the period from birth to 5 years was studied in a birth cohort of New Zealand children. Both family social background and family life events made a significant contribution to the variability in the risk of hospital admission. However, economic factors made no significant contribution to rates of admission when the correlated effects of fa…

A Proportional Hazards Model of Family Breakdown
Rates of family breakdown were studied in a birth cohort of New Zealand children during the period from birth to 5 years. Family breakdown occurred at a steady rate of approximately 2.3% per annum with the result that by 5 years just under one child in every eight had experienced a family breakdown. Rates of breakdown were related to a series of family formation and social factors including length of marriage type of marriage family size planning…
Risk factors in childhood eczema
The cumulative rate of childhood eczema during the first three years was studied in a birth cohort of 1265 New Zealand infants. A parental history of eczema was the strongest predictor of rates of childhood eczema but parental asthma was also related to childhood eczema. Children exposed to an early diverse solid-food diet also had increased risks of eczema, but there was no evidence to suggest that breast-feeding practices had any effect on rate…
Parental smoking and lower respiratory illness in the first three years of life
The relationships between parental smoking and the rates of lower respiratory illness during the first three years of life were examined for a birth cohort of 1265 New Zealand children. Lower respiratory illness varied significantly with maternal smoking for the first year; there was equivocal evidence of a relationship between maternal smoking and lower respiratory illness in the second year; and by third year the relationship had clearly disapp…
