Mediating links between maternal depression and offspring psychopathology: The importance of independent data

A study contributes to the growing research base demonstrating the importance of parenting behavior and family environmental factors in the intergenerational transmission of depression as well as the broader impact of maternal depression on offspring psychopathology more generally. Results revealed the importance of independent data for testing mediational claims, and support claims that the processes involved in the intergenerational transmission of psychopathology are different for male and female.

Associations between early mother-child mutually responsive orientation (MRO) and children's conscience are previously established, but the mechanisms accounting for those links are not understood. The impact of the early mother-child relationship on future conscience appears to be a complex process that progresses along distinct paths.
