Extensive evidence documents negative consequences of adversity for children's development. Here, we extend such work by looking beyond average effects to consider variation in susceptibility to both threat and deprivation in terms of cognitive and social–emotional development, using an influence‐statistic methodology. Data come from the ongoing Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (N = 14,541, 49.1% female, age range: 6 month to 12 year, race and ethnicity: 97.8% white, 0.4% black, and 0.6% other). With respect to anticipated associations of threat with problem behavior and of deprivation with cognition, results of this pre‐registered research revealed that a roughly equal proportion of children proved to be susceptible in a domain‐general manner (similarly influenced) and a domain‐specific one (dissimilarly influenced). Implications for intervention are considered.

早期生命威胁和剥夺：儿童是否受到类似的影响？


大量证据记录了逆境对儿童发展的负面影响。在这里，我们通过超越平均效应来扩展此类工作，使用影响统计方法从认知和社会情感发展的角度考虑对威胁和剥夺的敏感性的变化。数据来自正在进行的 Avon 父母和儿童纵向研究（N = 14,541,49.1% 女性，年龄范围：6 个月至 12 岁，种族和民族：97.8% 白人，0.4% 黑人和 0.6% 其他）。关于威胁与问题行为的预期关联以及剥夺与认知的预期关联，这项预先注册的研究结果显示，大致相等比例的儿童被证明在一般领域方式（类似影响）和特定领域方式（不同影响）方面易感。考虑干预的意义。
