We thank Petra Havinga and colleagues for their suggestion that we investigate the possibility of an interaction between paternal and maternal depressive symptoms in our datasets. As Havinga and colleagues state, we found evidence to support independent influences of paternal and maternal depressive symptoms on offspring depressive symptoms at 14 years of age. We used linear statistical models, which assume additive relationships between exposure variables. We have investigated the possibility of non-additive influences of paternal and maternal depressive symptoms.

产妇和产妇的抑郁症和后代的风险：相加作用或更严重？–作者的答复

我们感谢Petra Havea和同事的建议，即我们调查了我们数据集中父亲与母亲的抑郁症状之间相互作用的可能性。正如Havena和同事所言，我们发现了证据支持14岁以下的父母和母亲的抑郁症状对后代抑郁症状的独立影响。我们使用了线性统计模型，该模型假定了暴露变量之间的累加关系。我们调查了父亲和母亲抑郁症状的非累加性影响的可能性。
