虽然阅读困难与儿童期的破坏性行为障碍有着明确的重叠，但人们对阅读障碍儿童易受情感障碍的影响知之甚少。使用匹兹堡青年研究中6项男孩评估的纵向数据，我们发现，在最初评估时，7岁和10岁的男孩社区样本中，严重的，持续的阅读问题与抑郁情绪风险增加之间存在强有力的联系，尽管那些已经进入青少年的男孩没有这种联系。这些关联不能用选定的家庭风险或共病破坏性行为来解释;相反，研究结果的模式指出存在更直接的因果过程，即阅读问题影响年幼男孩抑郁情绪的风险。
Although reading difficulties show well-established overlaps with disruptive behavior disorders in childhood, much less is known about reading-disabled children's vulnerability to emotional difficulties. Using longitudinal data from 6 assessments of boys in the Pittsburgh Youth Study, we found robust links between severe, persistent reading problems and increased risk for depressed mood in a community sample of boys aged 7 and 10 years at initial assessment, though not in those who had already entered their teens. These associations could not be accounted for in terms of selected family risks or comorbid disruptive behaviors; instead, the pattern of the findings pointed to the existence of more direct causal processes whereby reading problems influence younger boys' risk of depressed mood.
