Tests of Linear and Nonlinear Relations between Cumulative Contextual Risk at Birth and Psychosocial Problems during Adolescence
This study tested whether there is a linear or nonlinear relation between prenatal/birth cumulative risk and psychosocial outcomes during adolescence. Participants (n = 6,963) were taken from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort Study 1986. The majority of participants did not experience any contextual...

This study tested whether there is a linear or nonlinear relation between prenatal/birth cumulative risk and psychosocial outcomes during adolescence. Participants (n = 6,963) were taken from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort Study 1986. The majority of participants did not experience any contextual risk factors around the time of the child’s birth (58.1%). Even in this low-risk sample, cumulative contextual risk assessed around the time of children’s birth was related to seven different psychosocial outcomes 16 years later. There was some evidence for nonlinear effects, but only for substance-related outcomes; however, the form of the association depended on how the cumulative risk index was calculated. Gender did not moderate the relation between cumulative risk and any of the adolescent psychosocial outcomes. Results highlight the potential value of using the cumulative risk framework for identifying children at birth who are at risk for a range of poor psychosocial outcomes during adolescence. |
