Data: | 2019 |
Resum: | The objective was to obtain developmental trajectories combining callous-unemotional traits and the number of stressful life-events between ages 3 and 9 years and to ascertain their association with the polymorphism rs53576 at the Oxytocin Receptor gene (OXTR). A total of 377 children were assessed yearly from ages 3 to 9 years. Latent class growth analysis for parallel processes was used to identify distinct trajectories for callous-unemotional traits (assessed using the Inventory of Callous-Unemotional Traits, ICU) and number of stressful life-events, and then the influence of being an A allele carrier on class membership was included with OXTR genotypes as a binary time-invariant predictor, following a 3-step approach. A 3-class model showed the highest entropy (. 859) and adequate posterior probabilities of class membership (≥. 884). Class 1 (n = 226, 59. 9%) included children with low and stable ICU scores and low and descending stressful life-events; class 2 (n = 127, 33. 7%) included children with high and ascending ICU scores and low and slightly descending stressful life-events; and class 3 (n = 24, 6. 4%) included children with persistently high profiles both for ICU scores and stressful life-events. Carrying an A allele (genotypes GA/AA) increased the odds of pertaining to class 3 (high and persistent ICU scores and stressful life-events) as opposed to class 2 (OR = 4. 27, p = 0. 034) or class 1 (OR = 3. 81, p = 0. 042). The results suggest the importance of considering callous-unemotional traits and stressful life-events in conjunction. In addition, the genetic variability of OXTR (rs53576) may help to understand individual differences in early development. |
