Abstract

This thesis is the compilation of studies that assessed stress and adversity using different approaches, and investigated the relation between adversities and early‑life stress with subsequent neurocognitive outcomes in the general population. This thesis also includes studies that addressed the role of protective factors, and the interplay between adversity and multiple protective factors in relation to brain morphology. Data from the population‑based Generation R Study, and the high‑risk Mannheim Study of Children at Risk were used in the studies presented here.
