Membership in a single - parent family or stepfamily is

factors, financial adversity, increased stress directly related to family transitions, and increased exposure to additional
psychosocial risks.3, 4 Compared with the extensive research base connecting family type (ie, membership in a 2 - parent biological family, stepfamily, or single - parent family) and children's psychological adjustment, little is known about the physical health consequences of membership in diverse family types.

Physicians underestimated substantially the prevalence of intrafamilial violence, maternal
psychosocial distress, and
associated behavior problems in children compared with use of a questionnaire for this purpose.23 The use of a clinic questionnaire identified significantly more mothers with potential risk

For example, in the NSCAW study, foster children with experiences of severe maltreatment exhibited more compromised outcomes.32 Other scholars suggest that foster care may even be a protective
factor against the negative consequences of maltreatment.33 Similarly, it has been suggested that foster care results in more positive outcomes for children than does reunification with biological families.34 Further, some studies suggest that the
psychosocial vulnerability of the child and family is more predictive of outcome than any other
factor.35 Despite these caveats, the evidence suggests that foster care placement and the foster care experience more generally are
associated with poorer developmental outcomes for children.
The findings differentiating juvenile - and adult - onset MDD are consistent with results from family studies, suggesting that juvenile - onset MDD may be a distinct subtype
associated with both genetic and early childhood
psychosocial risk
factors.
Workload, in particular tight deadlines, too much work and too much pressure or responsibility, a lack of managerial support, organisational changes at work, violence and role uncertainty are identified causes of work - related stress.1 These
