Aims: To explore the potential of administrative data in assessment of the association between parental socioeconomic position (SEP) and children's violent victimization by biological parents.
Methods: A longitudinal register-linkage study based on child-mother and child-father data, including all children born in Finland between 1991 and 2017. The data included 1,535,428 children, 796,335 biological mothers, and 775,966 fathers. We used logistic regression with person-years as observations and cluster-robust standard errors to predict children's violent victimization in 2009-2018 and assessed effect modification by child's age and gender.
Results: For the SEP indicators, lower maternal education (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.90, secondary education OR 1.99) and lower paternal education (OR 2.24, secondary education OR 1.59) were risk factors for violent victimization. Parental social assistance receipt (OR 2.4) and non-employment (OR 1.8-1.9) increased the risk of victimization to maternal and paternal violence. Income was associated with victimization in a gradient-like manner, with ORs ranging from 1.14 to 1.98 among mothers and from 1.29 to 2.56 among fathers. Children with low parental SEP were at the highest risk of parental violence, particularly paternal violence, at ages 3-8 years.

The relationship between the experience of childhood adversity (CA) and the development of personality disorders (PDs) has been well documented. The dimensional PD alternative model (AMPD) has been introduced in nosography in 2013, and so far it is been used for CA research mostly on non-clinical samples. We included in our study 137 psychiatric outpatients who were screened for history of maternal antipathy (MA), paternal antipathy (PA), maternal neglect (MN), paternal neglect (PN), maternal physical abuse (MPA), paternal physical abuse (PPA) and sexual abuse (SA) using the Childhood Experience of Care and Abuse Questionnaire (CECA.

While Early Live Adversity (ELA) is a known risk factor for mental and physical diseases, the investigation into the mechanisms behind this connection is ongoing. In the present study, we investigated whether ELA blunts the relaxation response in healthy adults. Using a within-subjects design, we employed a paced breathing exercise (four seconds inhale, six seconds exhale) and a 360° nature video as relaxation interventions while measuring physiological relaxation using heart rate variability and subjective relaxation using the Relaxation State Questionnaire.

Article Synopsis
- - Male postpartum depression is common but under-researched, especially concerning effective treatments in low-income areas; this study investigated a specific intervention called Learning Through Play Plus Dads (LTP + Dads) for improving male mental health in Karachi, Pakistan.
- - The study involved 357 fathers diagnosed with major depressive episodes, who were randomly assigned to either the LTP + Dads intervention or standard treatment; it measured various outcomes including depression, anxiety, and parenting stress over a 4 to 6 month period.
- - Results showed that fathers who participated in the LTP + Dads intervention had significantly greater improvements in their depression symptoms compared to those receiving usual treatment.
