Data were collected from a community sample of 13,088 pregnant women in Britain. Findings indicated that, compared with women in biological families and published population rates, women in single-parent families and step-families reported significantly heightened rates of depression. Furthermore, it was found that family-type differences in depression were mediated partly by differences in social support, stressful life events, and crowding but that a main effect of family type in predicting depression remained after statistically controlling for these risks. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
