Third, the identification of risk factors for juvenile - onset MDD in no way ensures their causal status.47 Although the early childhood risk factors (except childhood sexual abuse) covered the period prior to the first diagnosis of MDD (and could thus be ruled out as consequences of depression), future research is needed to determine whether changes in any of the childhood risk factors would decrease the likelihood of MDD, thus implying their causal status.
A question for future research is whether risk factors exert their effects for only a limited period (suggesting that the same risk factors we measured in early childhood, such as losing a parent, would predict adult - onset MDD if they occurred in late adolescence) or whether risk factors are developmentally sensitive, and those that predict juvenile - onset MDD are qualitatively different from those that predict adult - onset MDD.
Future research is needed to determine whether these early childhood risk factors are genetically mediated49 and how these risks may be causally implicated in the origins of depression.
Because our review of the literature indicated that this set of risk factors and outcomes had not previously been investigated in a thoroughly comprehensive and systematic manner with longitudinal data, data from the Children in the Community Study, 27 a prospective longitudinal investigation, were used to investigate whether negative life events or severe interpersonal difficulties during adolescence mediate the association between childhood adversities and suicide attempts during late adolescence or early adulthood.
Logistic regression analyses were conducted to investigate the mediation hypotheses, using an established 3 - step procedure.48 First, we investigated whether there was a significant bivariate association between a high level of maladaptive parenting (operationally defined as ≥ 3 maladaptive parenting behaviors) or abuse during childhood or early adolescence (by a mean age of 14 years) and risk for suicide attempts during late adolescence or early adulthood (reported at a mean age of 22 years) and whether the magnitude of this association was reduced when interpersonal difficulties during middle adolescence (reported at a mean age of 16 years) were controlled statistically.
