There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.
Discussion points include:
- How health care professionals can impact the ‘vulnerability process’ to help alter the outcomes for offspring of depressed mothers.
- Targeted interventions in the pre-conception period.
- Suggestions for women and birthing people, who have a history of mental health conditions and are considering having a baby, to promote healthier emotional development of their offspring.
- Potential biological markers that may be used to inform early targeted prevention efforts for high-risk populations and the forms of interventions.
- What needs to change within the current provision of health care to see a reduction in disruptions in emotion processing patterns amongst high-risk offspring.
- Paternal depression and the limited research currently available.
In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
