The Roles of Genetic Background and Event Valence in the Association between Stressful Life Events and Adolescent Antisocial Behavior David W. Sosnowski1, Kristine Marceau2, Shawn J. Latendresse3, Briana Horwitz4, David Reiss5, Jenae M. Neiderhiser6 1Virginia Commonwealth University 2Brown University/Rhode Island Hospital 3Baylor University 4California State University, Fullerton 5Yale University 6The Pennsylvania State University Abstract Results Conclusion Associations between total SLE occurrences, uniquely positive SLE occurrences, and uniquely negative SLE occurrences and adolescent antisocial behavior were examined. In addition, associations among 5-HTTLPR and Taq1A and adolescent antisocial behavior were tested, along with their interactions with SLEs. Data were obtained from Waves 1 and 3 of the Nonshared Environment in Adolescent Development Study (N = 264; Females = 52%; Mage = 13.5). Regression analyses were used to examine main effects of each life event variable, each functional polymorphism, and their pairwise interactions. Uniquely positive SLEs were associated with less adolescent antisocial behavior, but no association between either total SLE occurrences or uniquely negative SLEs and adolescent antisocial behavior was found. Furthermore, there was an interaction between 5-HTTLPR and negative SLE occurrences predicting less adolescent antisocial behavior. No associations were found between Taq1A and adolescent antisocial behavior and no gene-environment interactions emerged. Findings suggest that perceived valence is essential in understanding the effects of SLEs on adolescent antisocial behavior, both independently and in the presence of genetic moderators. Positive stressful life events were associated with decreases in antisocial behaviors. Total SLEs and negative SLEs had no effect on antisocial behaviors. Taq1A was not associated with antisocial behaviors. An interaction effect was detected for 5-HTTLPR and negative SLEs: For adolescent carriers of the “long” allele, more negative SLEs were associated with more antisocial behaviors. Perceived event valence plays an important role in the manifestation of adolescent antisocial behaviors. The “short” allele of 5-HTTLPR may not confer risk in context of SLEs. Neither 5-HTTLPR or Taq1A appear to function differentially within the context of SLEs. Future studies should examine additional genetic variants and use novel gene scoring approaches (e.g., polygenic scores) to aid in detecting effects. References Belsky, J., & Pluess, M. (2009).

Psychological Medicine, 40, 1659-1668. Introduction Stressful life events (SLEs) are linked with externalizing outcomes during adolescence (Timmermans et al., 2010). Life events literature often overlooks the impact of event valence (i.e., positive vs. negative) regarding SLEs. Research suggests event valence may play a role in one’s response to SLEs (Jackson & Warren, 2000). 5-HTTLPR and Taq1A have been associated with an individual’s response to stressful experiences (Seo et al., 2008), both for better and for worse (Belsky and Pluess, 2009). The current study aimed to examine the independent and interactive effects of event valence and genetic background on adolescent antisocial behavior in response to positive and negative SLEs.
