Prenatal and Postnatal Maternal Distress, Early Adversity, and Development From Infancy to Adolescence: Neurobiological and Behavioral Mechanisms
Exposure to maternal prenatal and postnatal distress is associated with negative child developmental outcomes. Less is known, however, about the neurobiological mechanisms that contribute to developmental changes. This symposium highlights research using novel, integrative methods to delineate these mechanisms and describe the changes that follow from infancy to adolescence.
