OBJECTIVE: An association between childhood behavioral disturbance and adulthood @entity161 has been seen previously in retrospective or follow-back studies and in prospective studies. The authors examined the relationship between childhood @entity146 and adulthood @entity161 -related @entity914 . Because a high rate of childhood @entity146 is known to be associated with adult @entity734 , these analyses controlled for @entity734 . METHOD: The subjects of this investigation (N = 185) were offspring of parents with @entity161 or @entity1316 and of normal parents from the New York High-Risk Project (sample A). Data on childhood @entity146 were obtained in a parent interview at initial assessment in 1971-1972. Adulthood outcomes ( @entity161 -related @entity6406 , @entity148 , @entity734 ) were based on lifetime axis I diagnoses according to the Research Diagnostic Criteria. RESULTS: @entity734 had a significant interaction with the clinical outcome groups. In subjects without @entity734 , those with @entity161 -related @entity914 had exhibited significantly more @entity146 as @entity1 than had adult offspring with affective or @entity148 or with @entity734 only or no disorder. CONCLUSIONS: These results support the view that @entity161 -related @entity914 can be followed back to early behavioral disturbances. The confounding effects of @entity734 should be statistically controlled in studies of longitudinal associations between childhood behavioral disturbance and axis I outcomes.
