风险因素研究是指对先行条件和后续结果以及它们相互关联的方式的研究。这项研究涵盖了广泛的问题和研究策略。本文讨论了发展精神病理学背景下危险因素研究的特点和贡献。讨论了将因果路径概念化的方式、整合多种影响的能力以及可以从研究结果中得出的应用。研究的进展与关键概念（相关，风险因素，标记，因果风险因素）有关，这些概念反映了对前因-结果关系的不同理解水平。在发展过程中，对因果关系、进展和路径的识别以及理论、研究和应用的相互作用进行了说明和讨论。1997爱思唯尔科学有限公司
Risk-factor research refers to the study of antecedent conditions and subsequent outcomes and the ways in which these are interrelated. The research encompasses a broad rang of questions and research strategies. The paper discusses the characteristics and contributions of risk-factor research in the context of developmental psychopathology. The ways in which causal paths are conceptualized, the capacity to integrate multiple influences, and applications that can be derived from the findings are discussed. The progression of research is illustrated in relation to key concepts (correlate, risk factor, marker, causal risk factor) that reflect varied levels of understanding antecedent-outcome relations. The identification of causal relations, progressions, and paths over the course of development and the interplay of theory, research, and application are illustrated and discussed.
