Diet has been associated with behavioural problems, including aggression, but the long-term effects of childhood diet on adult violence have not been studied. We tested the hypothesis that excessive consumption of confectionery at age 10 years predicts convictions for violence in adulthood (age 34 years). Data from age 5, 10 and 34 years were used. Children who ate confectionery daily at age 10 years were significantly more likely to have been convicted for violence at age 34 years, a relationship that was robust when controlling for ecological and individual factors.
饮食与包括攻击性在内的行为问题有关，但童年饮食对成人暴力行为的长期影响尚未得到研究。我们检验了这样一个假设：10岁时过量食用糖果可预测成年期（34岁）的暴力犯罪定罪情况。我们使用了来自5岁、10岁和34岁的数据。10岁时每天吃糖果的儿童在34岁时因暴力犯罪被定罪的可能性显著更高，在控制了生态和个体因素后，这种关系依然稳固。
