EthicsEthical approval was obtained from the Research Ethics Committee and the University Research Governance Committee. The infant developmental assessment was done in the participant’s homes by a researcher who was trained and qualified in Infant Development. Either one of the parents was present at all times through the assessment which lasted from forty-five minutes to an hour and a half. Written consent was obtained before the start of each evaluation and confidentiality, anonymity, as well as the right to withdraw consent at anytime, was stressed. Parents were debriefed and given the option of a summary of their baby’s development after the assessment. The study subjects were offspring of participants in the Providence, R.I site of the National Collaborative Perinatal Project which is a multisite study that enrolled more than 50,000 pregnancies nationally. Researchers followed the offspring through the first 7 years of life. In Providence, 4,140 pregnancies were enrolled between 1959 and 1966. Of the 4,140Providence, National Collaborative Perinatal Project births, 1,780 individuals were selected for participation in the adult follow-up study. Selection occurred in two separate phases in which a random sample was drawn from the entire cohort to investigate the association between several early life factors and adult psychiatric disorders.

During phase one, initiated in 1984, 995 eligible subjects 18-27 years old with and without maternal pregnancy/delivery complications were selected. In the second phase, initiated in 1996, 1,056 subjects 30-39 years old with and without learning disabilities were selected. There was a small overlap between the first and second-phase samples. For participants included in both phases, phase-two interviews were used unless depression had been reported at the initial (phase-one) assessment, in which case the earlier information was used. Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects. The first part of the study began between 1959 and 1966 with the enrollment of pregnant women. Their offspring were followed closely for the first seven years of life. The second part of the study was conducted in two phases and was carried out through random subject selection so as to not obscure results. Researchers obtained written consent from all participants. This study fits with historical ethics in the field. This study was supported by grants from NIMH, MH-61953(Drs. Buka and Gilman) and MH-17119 (Dr. Fitzmaurice), GM-29745 from the NationalInstitute of General Medical Sciences (Dr. Fitzmaurice), and a grant from the MacArthur foundation Network on Socioeconomic Status and Health (Drs. Kawachi and Gilman).
