Marital disruption (i.e., separation or divorce) impacts an estimated 40-50% of married couples. Previous research has shown that marital disruption results in negative health outcomes for children and adolescents. Our study aims to investigate the relationship between marital disruptions and internalizing disorders of children in a prospective cohort. Comparisons between marital status groups at each time point showed a significant difference in CBCL score between children in married and unmarried families at 3 years of age, with children in unmarried families having a 0.10 higher standardized CBCL score (95% CI: 0.09-0.12; p<.0001). Differences in CBCL score by marital status were not significant at 5 and 9 years after adjusting for confounders. Parental marital status is associated with an increased CBCL internalizing behavior score at 3 years of age, but the association disappears at later time points.
婚姻关系破裂(即分居或离婚)影响着约40%-50%的已婚夫妇。先前的研究表明,婚姻关系破裂会给儿童和青少年带来负面的健康后果。我们的研究旨在在前瞻性队列中调查婚姻关系破裂与儿童内化性障碍之间的关系。各时间点婚姻状况组之间的比较显示,3岁时已婚家庭和未婚家庭儿童的儿童行为检查表(CBCL)得分存在显著差异,未婚家庭儿童的CBCL标准化得分高0.10(95%可信区间:0.09-0.12;p<0.0001)。在调整混杂因素后,5岁和9岁时按婚姻状况划分的CBCL得分差异不显著。父母的婚姻状况与3岁时CBCL内化行为得分增加有关,但在随后的时间点这种关联消失了。
