AbstractWe investigate the causal relationship between educational attainment (EA) and mental health conditions using two research designs. Here we first compare the relationship between EA and 18 psychiatric diagnoses within-sibship in Dutch national registry data (N = 1.7 million), thereby controlling for unmeasured familial factors.

AbstractParents play a crucial role in children’s lives. Despite high prevalences of anxiety and depression, we do not know how these disorders among parents associate with child school performance in Norway. We use regression models to estimate associations between parental mental disorders and child school performance, while adjusting for some social and genetic confounders.
