contents Life course predictors of child emotional distress during the COVID ‐19 pandemic: Findings from a prospective intergenerational cohort study Primrose Letcher Christopher J. Greenwood Jacqui A. Macdonald Joanne Ryan Meredith O'Connor Kimberly C. Thomson Ebony J. Biden Felicity Painter Catherine M. Olsson Ben Edwards Jennifer McIntosh Elizabeth A. Spry Delyse Hutchinson Joyce Cleary Tim Slade Craig A. Olsson Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry Background We examine precursors of child emotional distress during the COVID‐19 pandemic in a prospective intergenerational Australian cohort study. Methods Parents ( N  = 549, 60% mothers) of 934 1–9‐year‐old children completed a COVID‐19 specific module in 2020 and/or 2021. Decades prior, a broad range of individual, relational and contextual factors were assessed during parents' own childhood, adolescence and young adulthood (7–8 to 27–28 years old; 1990–2010) and again when their children were 1 year old (2012–2019). Results After controlling for pre‐pandemic socio‐emotional behaviour problems, COVID‐19 child emotional distress was associated with a range of pre‐pandemic parental life course factors including internalising difficulties, lower conscientiousness, social skills problems, poorer relational health and lower trust and tolerance. Additionally, in the postpartum period, pre‐pandemic parental internalising difficulties, lower parental warmth, lower cooperation and fewer behavioural competencies predicted child COVID‐19 emotional distress. Conclusions Findings highlight the importance of taking a larger, intergenerational perspective to better equip young populations for future adversities. This involves not only investing in child, adolescent, and young adult emotional and relational health, but also in parents raising young families. 10.1111/jcpp.13995 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
