AIMS: To investigate the association between exposure to interparental violence in childhood and mental health outcomes in adulthood when taking into account early family and social stressors. METHODS: A retrospective French cohort study of 3023 adults representative of the general population in the Paris metropolitan area was conducted in 2005 through at-home, face-to-face interviews. The outcomes measures were current depression and lifetime suicide attempt, intimate partner violence, violence against children and alcohol dependence. RESULTS: The adults exposed to interparental violence during childhood had a higher risk of psychosocial maladjustment. After adjusting for family- and social-level stressors in childhood, this risk was, respectively, 1.44 (95% CI 1.03 to 2.00) for depression, 3.17 (1.75 to 5.73) for conjugal violence, 4.75 (1.60 to 14.14) for child maltreatment and 1.75 (1.19 to 2.57) for alcohol dependence. CONCLUSIONS: The adult consequences of parental violence in childhood-and this independently of the other forms of domestic violence and the related psychosocial risks-should lead to intensifying the prevention of and screening for this form of maltreatment of children. %G English %2 https://inserm.hal.science/inserm-00415975/document %2 https://inserm.hal.science/inserm-00415975/file/Roustit_et_al_JECH_2009.pdf %L inserm-00415975 %U https://inserm.hal.science/inserm-00415975 %~ INSERM %~ ENS-PARIS %~ UPMC %~ CNRS %~ EHESS %~ U707 %~ APHP %~ SANTE_PUB_INSERM %~ DS3 %~ C-M-H %~ COMUE-NORMANDIE %~ PSL %~ UNICAEN %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SU-INF-2018 %~ SU-MEDECINE %~ SU-MED %~ ENS-PSL %~ SU-TI %~ ALLIANCE-SU
