这项研究考察了儿童行为问题的存在与成年早期生活事件和困难发生率之间的关系。这是一项为期20年的跟踪研究的数据,研究对象是伦敦市中心的学童,他们在10岁时开始接受研究。关键发现是,童年时期的情绪或行为障碍与大约20年后的严重负面事件和困难的发生率显著增加有关。这一增加只在具有严重负面影响的应激源中获得,在以前的调查中显示的类型与精神障碍的发病有关。其他结果表明,这一主要发现不能由成人精神障碍造成的压力源、被调查者自己的行为或与原籍家庭的持续联系来解释。对已确立的应激源-疾病联系的终生发展方法的必要性进行了讨论。
The research presented in this paper examined the relationship between the presence of childhood behaviour problems and the rate of life events and difficulties in early adult life. Data are presented from a 20 year follow-up study of a sample of inner London school children first studied when they were aged 10. The key finding was that emotional or behavioural disturbance in childhood was associated with a marked increase in the rate of severely negative events and difficulties some two decades later. This increase was only obtained for stressors with severe negative impact of the type shown in previous investigations to be associated with the onset of psychiatric disorder. Additional results demonstrated that this main finding could not be accounted for by stressors that were a result of adult psychiatric disorder, by the respondent's own behaviour, or by continuing association with the family of origin. The need for a lifespan developmental approach to the well-established stressor-illness link is discussed.
