Intergenerational associations of maternal depression with daughters' family formation

Daughters' exposure to mothers' depression was associated with daughters' family formation transitions. The timing of exposure, however, was a particularly important driver of that association. We argue that the study of parents' mental ill-health provides untapped opportunity for future intergenerational research.

Abstract

Daughters' exposure to mothers' depression was associated with daughters' family formation transitions. The timing of exposure, however, was a particularly important driver of that association. We argue that the study of parents' mental ill-health provides untapped opportunity for future intergenerational research.
