Research Review: Intergenerational transmission of disadvantage: epigenetics and parents' childhoods as the first exposure

23 Feb 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: For decades, economists and sociologists have documented intergenerational transmission of socioeconomic disadvantage, demonstrating that economic, political, and social factors contribute to 'inherited hardship'. Drawing on biological factors, the developmental origins of adult health and disease model posits that fetal exposure to maternal prenatal distress associated with socioeconomic disadvantage...
