Abstract

Social communication difficulties are a transdiagnostic risk factor for psychopathology. However, few studies have examined prospective risk for social communication difficulties in young children within an ecological systems framework. Our sample was 251 parent-child dyads assessed during pregnancy, postpartum, and toddlerhood (child ages 1 and 2). We leveraged observer ratings of child behavior, parent-reported questionnaires, and geocoded data. We examined prospective risk factors for social communication difficulties at ages 1 and 2, including at the level of the child (gestational age), family (household income, maternal mental health, maternal-child bonding), and neighborhood (neighborhood resources). Fewer neighborhood resources were associated with more social communication difficulties at age 1, but only among dyads with impaired maternal bonding. Lower gestational age, lower household income, and impaired maternal bonding were associated with more child social communication difficulties at age 2. Fewer neighborhood resources were also related to more social communication difficulties at age 2, specifically among families with low household incomes. Findings provide insight into families who may benefit from early intervention to reduce transdiagnostic risk for child psychopathology across ecological systems, including efforts to target maternal bonding and poverty.

纵向生态系统框架下幼儿社会沟通困难的特征分析。
社会沟通困难是精神病理的跨诊断危险因素。然而,很少有研究在生态系统框架内检查幼儿社会沟通困难的预期风险。我们的样本是251对在怀孕、产后和幼儿期(1岁和2岁的孩子)进行评估的亲子二人组。我们利用了儿童行为的观察者评分、父母报告的问卷和地理编码数据。我们研究了1岁和2岁儿童社会沟通困难的潜在危险因素,包括儿童(胎龄)、家庭(家庭收入、母亲心理健康、母子关系)和社区(社区资源)。1岁时,较少的社区资源与更多的社会沟通困难有关,但仅在母亲关系受损的二人组中存在。较低的胎龄、较低的家庭收入和母亲关系受损与儿童2岁时更多的社会沟通困难有关。社区资源较少也与两岁时更多的社会沟通困难有关,特别是在低收入家庭中。研究结果为那些可能从早期干预中受益的家庭提供了见解,以减少跨生态系统的儿童精神病理学的跨诊断风险,包括针对母亲关系和贫困的努力。
