The Effects of Poverty on Childhood Brain Development: The Mediating Effect of Caregiving and
Stressful Life Events, and Biological Embedding of
Early Life Adversity
In 2010, more than 1 in 5 children were reported to be
living in poverty.6, 10 Economic disadvantage is among the most potent risks for behavioral and emotional problems due to increased exposure to environmental, familial, and psychosocial risks.11 — 13 In families in which parents are in military service, parental deployment and return has been determined to be a risk factor for behavioral and emotional problems in children.14 Data from the 2003 National Survey of Children's Health demonstrated a strong linear relationship between increasing number of psychosocial risks and many poor health outcomes, including social - emotional health.15 The Adverse Childhood Experience Study surveyed 17000 adults about
early traumatic and
stressful experiences.
Developmental trajectories appear

stressful and risky social contexts.
Findings that these effects on the hippocampus are mediated by caregiving and
stressful life events suggest that attempts to enhance
early caregiving should be a focused public health target for prevention and
early intervention.
Mildly
stressful early life experiences can potentially impact a broad range of social, cognitive, and physiological functions in humans, nonhuman primates, and rodents.
The importance of
early interventions that target caregiving is underscored by studies demonstrating high cost - effectiveness through greatly enhanced long - term outcomes.41 Furthermore, children who receive more nurturing caregiving may also be protected from exposure to
stressful life events, suggesting this central target may have positive ramifications on brain development.42 Considering these issues, study findings are relevant to the public policy debate on the importance of
early preschool programs for young children
living in poverty.
In a recent report, the Institute of Medicine identified 5 risk factors associated with the onset of depression: having a parent or other close biological relative with a mood disorder; experiencing a severely
stressful event; having low self - esteem, a sense of low self - efficacy, and a sense of helplessness or hopelessness; being female; and
living in poverty.39 This national study of depressive symptoms in mothers of children in kindergarten who attended a Head Start program supports the predictive validity of several of the risk factors published by the Institute of Medicine and corroborates findings from several
earlier studies that examine depression in mothers of young children.

stressful life events on children.
Although this is the first prospective longitudinal study to investigate this mediational hypothesis in a systematic manner, our findings are consistent with previous findings indicating that disruption of interpersonal relationships is a predominant risk factor for suicide10, 13,49 and that interpersonal conflict or separation during adulthood partially mediated an association between neglectful overprotective parenting and subsequent suicide attempts.23 The present findings are also consistent with research indicating that
stressful life events mediated the association between childhood adversities and suicidal behavior during adolescence or
early adulthood, 8 that suicide is multidetermined, 2 and that youths who experience numerous adversities during childhood and adolescence are at a particularly elevated risk for suicide.18, 22,49
While Rosa did not talk specifically in the Save the Children video about postpartum depression, research shows that
stressful life events, including premature birth, are risk factors for maternal depression.24 Evaluation studies confirm that women who participated in home visiting programs were less likely to demonstrate symptoms of depression and reported improved mental outlook when compared with control groups of women who did not participate in home visiting.25 For example, parents participating in the Child First model — one of the 20 evidence - based models eligible to receive funds from the Maternal, Infant, and
Early Childhood Home Visiting program — experienced lower levels of stress and depression at the end of the program compared with parents who did not participate.26
In the long term, those participating children are more likely to be employed and less likely to be dependent on government assistance.9 The positive effects are larger, and more likely to be sustained, when programs are high quality.10 In addition, the impact is greatest for children from low - income families.11 Differences in children's cognitive abilities by income are evident at only nine months old and significantly widen by the time children are two years old.12 Children
living in poverty are more likely to be subject to
stressful home environments — which can have lifelong impacts on learning, cognition, and self - regulation — while parents
living in poverty have limited resources to provide for their families and high barriers to accessing affordable, high - quality child care.13 High - quality
early learning programs staffed by warm and responsive adults can help mitigate these effects, offering a safe and predictable learning environment that fosters children's development.14

Research evidence shows that maternal
stressful experiences during pregnancy and in

life.

stressful life events [16] sometimes precede relapses in bedwetting.
Risk factors associated with the occurrence of PPD, i.e., lower maternal education, more conflicts with the partner, separation from the child's biological father and more
stressful life events were controlled for and therefore did not account for the relation between PPD and children's outcomes in the
early school period.
Early stressful life contexts increase the likelihood that youth will encounter stressors later in adolescence and young adulthood in a successively contingent manner over adolescence, creating a stress trajectory or pathway (path 2a)(Attar et al. 1994; O'Rand and Hamil - Luker 2005).
The resulting stress trajectories may include the
early onset of puberty (Ge et al. 2001), adolescent
stressful life events and circumstances (Wickrama et al. 2015b), romantic relationship problems (Barr et al. 2016), and an off - time (
early or late) transition to adulthood, including the acquisition of adult roles such as becoming a parent, cohabiting, and dropping out of school (Lee 2015; Wickrama et al. 2015a, 2005).
