Happy prenatal relationships, healthy postpartum mothers: A prospective study of relationship satisfaction, postpartum stress, and health
Objective Major life transitions, such as the arrival of a new baby, can be stressful, and therefore, costly to one’s health. Being in a satisfying romantic relationship has been previously linked with better health, perhaps because it provides access to a bank of psychosocial resources. The objective of the present research was two-fold. First, we examined whether prenatal relationship satisfaction benefitted mothers’ postpartum health. Second, …

Persistent and occasional poverty and children's food consumption: Evidence from a longitudinal Québec birth cohort
BACKGROUND: Childhood poverty is associated with poorer food consumption but longitudinal data are limited. The objective was to assess if food consumption differs depending on age (6, 7, 10 and 12 years) and pattern of poverty. METHODS: Participants were from the 1998-2010 'Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development' birth cohort. Poverty was defined as income below the low-income thresholds established by Statistics Canada which adjusts for…
Poverty's latent effect on adiposity during childhood: Evidence from a Québec birth cohort
BACKGROUND: Childhood poverty heightens the risk of obesity in adulthood, but the age at which this risk appears is unclear. We analysed the association between poverty trajectories with body mass index (BMI) Z-scores or the risk of being overweight or obese across four ages (6 years, 8 years, 10 years and 12 years) in childhood. METHODS: Data were from the 1998-2010 'Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development' cohort (n=698). Poverty was def…
Is the obesity epidemic worsening the cardiovascular risk factor profile of children? Evidence from two Québec samples measured 10 years apart
Despite higher BMI Z-scores in 2008, differences in cardiometabolic indicators between 1999 and 2008 were small and may not be clinically meaningful. Surveillance to closely monitor trends in cardiometabolic indicators in Canadian youth is needed
Tracking Exposure to Child Poverty During the First 10 Years of Life in a Quebec Birth Cohort
The influence of poverty and social support on the perceived health of children born to minority migrant mothers
In Quebec, economic hardship and lack of social support are common realities among minority migrants with young children. Combined exposure to poverty and low social support is most detrimental to the perceived health of children of minority migrants
Understanding the determinants of active transportation to school among children: Evidence of environmental injustice from the Quebec longitudinal study of child development
La dépression post-natale: Les facteurs socio-environnementaux
Au cours des semaines et des mois qui suivent la naissance, de 10 % à 20 % des mères présentent des symptômes dépressifs modérés ou graves. Cet état de détresse psychologique influe sur l'interaction de la mère avec son nourrisson et peut modifier à plus long terme le développement de l'enfant. Les études récentes associent de plus en plus ces symptômes aux stresseurs psycho-sociaux et environnementaux. Une meilleure compréhension de l'effet du s…

La violence conjugale est un problème complexe dont l'ampleur et les conséquences sont de mieux en mieux documentées. Parmi les multiples facettes du phénomène, son occurrence pendant la grossesse suscite des inquiétudes particulières. Cet article fait le point sur les écrits scientifiques portant sur cette question. Après avoir traité de la prévalence de la violence conjugale pendant la grossesse, il rend compte des principales études qui ont an…
Links Between Maternal Breast-Feeding Duration and Québec Infants’ Health: A Population-Based Study. Are the Effects Different for Poor Children
Le partage des tâches domestiques et les problèmes dépressifs: Une analyse de la situation des nouvelles mères au Québec
Cet article vise à décrire le mode de partage des tâches domestiques parmi les mères de très jeunes enfants, et à explorer la possibilité selon laquelle le mode de partage aurait un impact sur la santé psychologique de ces femmes. Les résultats démontrent qu'un partage inégalitaire est associé à la présence de symptômes dépressifs chez les nouvelles mères, même lorsque sont pris en compte un ensemble de facteurs parmi lesquels on retrouve la qual…
The diversity of prevention and health promotion services offered by Quebec Community Health Centres: A study of infant and toddler programmes
Research has shown that preventive and health promotion (PHP) services offered by community health centres are often vulnerable in times of health reform or budgetary cutbacks. The present study was conducted in Québec, Canada, approximately 10 years after the start of a major transformation of health care services. The objectives were: (1) to examine the diversity of infant/toddler prevention and health promotion services offered by centres loca…
Understanding the dimensions of socioeconomic status that influence toddlers’ health: Unique impact of lack of money for basic needs in Quebec’s birth cohort
Study objectives: To examine the unique impact of financial difficulties as measured by a lack of money for basic needs on the occurrence of health problems between the ages of 17 and 29 months, controlling for mother’s level of education and neonatal health problems. Design and participants: Analyses were performed on the 29 month data of the Quebec longitudinal study of child development. This longitudinal study followed up a birth cohort annua…
Travailler ou ne pas travailler… Le désir d’emploi des nouvelles mères et la dépression postnatale
Cet article vise à explorer les liens qui unissent l’adéquation entre le désir d’emploi et la situation vécue, d’une part, et la présence de troubles dépressifs chez les nouvelles mères, d’autre part. Les résultats indiquent que, six mois après la naissance d’un enfant, une proportion élevée de femmes se déclarant « au foyer » souhaiterait occuper un emploi rémunéré. Chez les femmes au foyer, ce désir d’emploi est associé à la présence de symptôm…

Socio‐economic disparities in preterm birth: Causal pathways and mechanisms
Preterm birth is the leading cause of infant mortality in industrialised societies. Its incidence is greatly increased among the socially disadvantaged, but the reasons for this excess are unclear and have been relatively unexplored. We hypothesise two distinct sets of causal pathways and mechanisms that may explain social disparities in preterm birth. The first set involves chronic and acute psychosocial stressors, psychological distress caused …
