Longitudinal pathways between maternal depression, parenting behaviors, and early childhood development
Maternal depression is a global public health concern with far-reaching impacts on child development, yet our understanding of mechanisms remains incomplete. This study examined whether parenting mediates the association between maternal depression and child outcomes. Participants included 841 rural Pakistani mother–child dyads (50% female). Maternal depression was measured at 12 months postpartum, parenting behaviors (warmth, stimulation, and ha…
Early life grandmother caregiving trajectories and child development
Grandmothers are influential caregivers for young children, yet their contributions to child development remains understudied. This study characterized trajectories of grandmother caregiving from infancy to 2 years and examined their associations with child development. Data came from a longitudinal birth cohort study in rural Pakistan ( n = 959). Grandmother caregiving behaviors were maternally reported at 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years postpartu…
An examination of multiple illness and social related stressors during the Covid-19 pandemic on maternal and child mental health; findings from a birth cohort in rural Pakistan
These findings provide evidence of additional pathways through which prolonged global events, like the pandemic, can have multigenerational mental health impacts
Maternal self‐efficacy during infancy
Maternal self‐efficacy during infancy is shaped by many factors, including maternal mental health and social support. This study examines how depression, emotional support, and childcare support relate to maternal self‐efficacy among mothers of infants in rural Pakistan. Participants included 885 mothers assessed at 3 and 6 months postpartum. At 3 months postpartum, mothers completed interview measures of depression, emotional social support, sup…
Impacts of chronic suicidal ideation on parenting and child development
Trauma exposure among young children in rural Pakistan
Findings show that childhood trauma exposure is common in this setting and associated with worse mental health problems among young boys and girls. Results suggest that trauma-informed interventions are important for supporting child mental health in South Asia
Enhancing early parenting in the community
Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch‐up (ABC) is a promising home‐visiting intervention promoting sensitive caregiving and secure parent–child attachment in families with young children. The goal of this study was to examine a learning collaborative approach to disseminating ABC in a community setting. Training outcomes (e.g., trainee completion, satisfaction, effectiveness of training methods) and intervention outcomes (e.g., parent behavior, pare…
Effects of a maternal psychosocial intervention on hair derived biomarkers of HPA axis function in mothers and children in rural Pakistan
Disruptions in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis are thought to be key neuroendocrine mechanisms involved in psychopathology and may have intergenerational impacts. Hair-derived HPA hormones offer a measure of long-term HPA axis activity that may be useful in assessing maternal and infant health. Building on a community-based randomized control trial of a perinatal depression intervention in Pakistan, we examine intervention effects o…
Early Adverse Experiences and Repeated Wheezing From 6 to 30 Months of Age
This study examined associations among early adversity, diurnal cortisol, child sex, and caregiver sensitivity at age 6 months in relation to wheezing in children (47% male) followed to 30 months. Analyses included 676 mother-child dyads, 393 of whom completed an observational caregiver sensitivity measure. Participants were primarily ethnic minorities (42.7% Black, 25.4% Hispanic); 22.1% of children had ≥ 1 wheezing episode. Higher adversity was…
Indicators of deprivation predict diurnal cortisol regulation during infancy
Dysregulation of diurnal cortisol rhythms is often seen among children exposed to early adversity and has been associated with a variety of negative physical and mental health outcomes. The present study examined whether two indicators of deprivation, sociodemographic burden and observed parental insensitivity, were associated with child diurnal cortisol rhythms among a diverse community sample of 250 infants ages 5 to 22 months (M = 12.68 months…

Are All Head Start Classrooms Created Equal? Variation in Classroom Quality Within Head Start Centers and Implications for Accountability Systems
Most accountability policies monitor Head Start quality at the center level by selecting a subset of classrooms within a center to represent quality. This study explores variation in classroom quality in Head Start and implications for accountability systems and children’s well-being. We find that one third to one half of the variation in quality was due to differences between classrooms within center and that 37% of centers would receive differe…

What Created, What Perceived
How, then, should we view the recent historiography of our imaginative evolutionâ as we have to date, as a valid description of what has occurred? Or, along with literature and art, as a major force in the creation of national myth and our present imaginative ethos? Central in any assessment of its fundamental character would seem the question Wordsworth posed when he spoke of 'the mighty world / Of eye and ear, both what they half create, / And …

Thomas Rowcroft's Testimony and the 'Botany Bay' Debate
John Ritchie is right to think that what we now need in the 'Botany Bay' debate is more evidence rather than more 'plausible or unsubstantiated hypotheses', but we should be cautious in our use of the Rowcroft paragraphs he publishes.1 As he says, these paragraphs do seem 'rich in implications'. Unfortunately, however, their implications, like the margin of the world which Tennyson's Ulysses dreamt on, tend to fade for ever and for ever as we mov…
