چکیده
Biol. Lett. 13, 20170464. (Published online 18 October 2017) (doi:10.1098/rsbl. 2017.0464) Please note that an error was unfortunately introduced in table 1 during the proof-reading of this article [1]. At the end of the legend of table 1 the text should read ‘p-value codes: , 0.1; *, 0.05; **, 0.01; ***, 0.001’, rather than ‘p-value codes: , 0.1; **, 0.05; ***, 0.01; , 0.001’ as currently stated in the manuscript. The p-value codes in the actual table are correct (i.e. *** indicates a p-value , 0.001).

متن کاملMenarche and father absence in a national probability sample.
The relation between women's timing of menarche and father absence was examined in a national probability sample of Great Britain (NATSAL 2000; N>5000). Current body mass index (as a proxy for childhood weight) was examined as a potential mediator of this relationship, along with the potential moderating role that siblings (e.g. number of older brothers) had on this relationship. As in a number...
متن کاملEarly Childhood Father Absence and Depressive Symptoms in Adolescent Girls from a UK Cohort: The Mediating Role of Early Menarche
Absence of the biological father in early childhood has been linked to depressive symptoms in mid-adolescent girls. Earlier studies have linked father absence to early timing of menarche, and early menarche is a risk factor for increased depressive symptoms in adolescence. No studies, however, have examined whether the association between father absence and depressive symptoms may be explained ...
