Summary

This study looks at how a mother's stress, anxiety, and mood during pregnancy might influence her child's brain development and behavior. Researchers are following 587 families in Singapore, including mothers, fathers, and children. They use brain scans and developmental tests to understand these connections, also considering the father's genetics and parenting style.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help identify which aspects of maternal stress most influence child development, leading to better support for pregnant women.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It cannot prove cause and effect, and results may not apply to all populations.
