ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT

Keywords: Introduction: Paternal psychopathology is associated with various adolescent outcomes. With Depression emotional disorders presenting a significant public health concern in the adolescent age group, Anxiety the aim of this systematic review was to synthesize evidence on the relationship between paternal Adolescent mental health and adolescent anxiety or depression. Paternal Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, Global Health, and PsycINFO were Mental health searched for articles which primarily aimed to investigate the relationship between paternal mental health (exposure) and adolescent anxiety or depression (outcome). Articles were assessed for risk of bias, and findings are presented in a narrative synthesis. The protocol is registered on PROSPERO (CRD42018094076). Results: Findings from the fourteen included studies indicated that paternal depression is asso- ciated with adolescent depression and anxiety. Findings relating to other paternal mental health disorders were inconclusive. Results largely suggested that adolescent depression and anxiety is equally associated with paternal and maternal mental health. The included studies were mostly cross-sectional, and the quality of included studies was mixed. Attempts to focus on the 11–17 year age range were hampered by the variability of age ranges included in studies. Conclusions: Further longitudinal research is needed to clarify the association between paternal mental health disorders other than depression, and adolescent anxiety or depression. Mechanisms in this relationship should also be further explored, and could be informed by existing models on younger children.

1. Introduction

A recent review estimated that 15%–23% of children worldwide live with a parent with a mental health or (Leijdesdorff, van Doesum, Popma, Klaassen, & van Amelsvoort, 2017). Research on the impact that parental psychopathology has on children and adolescents tends to focus on mothers rather than fathers (Cabrera, Volling, & Barr, 2018). However, the role of fathers in their children's lives cannot be reasonably overlooked, as they increasingly engage in childcare and head up single parent households (Livingston, 2013; Parker & Wang, 2013). Accordingly, the inclusion of fathers in research is growing, such that the impact of paternal depression on child and adolescent outcomes has been extensively studied and reviewed (Gentile & Fusco, 2017;

Kane & Garber, 2004; Sweeney & MacBeth, 2016), and potential mechanisms in the relationship between paternal and child psy- chopathology have been considered (Ramchandani & Psychogiou, 2009; Sweeney & MacBeth, 2016). But while research is growing in this field, less consideration has been given to the impact of paternal mental health disorders other than depression. Given that disorders such as anxiety and are known to be just as prevalent as depression in the general population, their potential impact warrants equal attention (McManus, Bebbington, Jenkins, & Brugha, 2016). A review which draws together evidence on paternal psychopathologies including but not limited to depression would provide insight to the comparative state of the literature regarding a range of disorders. Moreover, previous reviews of the literature have tended to examine findings from adolescence alongside childhood and even infanthood (Gentile & Fusco, 2017; Kane & Garber, 2004; Ramchandani & Psychogiou, 2009; Sweeney & MacBeth, 2016), despite indication that the effect of parental psychopathology changes throughout childhood and adolescence (Connell & Goodman, 2002). Previous reviews have also investigated both internalising and externalising outcomes in offspring, despite the predictors, course and outcomes of these disorders being heterogeneous and warranting independent and comprehensive study (Liu, 2004; Liu, Chen, & Lewis, 2011). Adolescents are particularly affected by anxiety and depressive disorders (Sadler et al., 2018), which during this developmental period are associated with and a wide range of psychosocial and physical health issues, some of which extend into adulthood (Essau, Lewinsohn, Olaya, & Seeley, 2014; Keenan-Miller, Hammen, & Brennan, 2007; McLeod, Horwood, & Fergusson, 2016; Windfuhr et al., 2008; Woodward & Fergusson, 2001). Therefore these disorders were selected as the focus for this review. Consequently, our primary aim was to synthesize the evidence on the relationship between paternal mental health (exposure) and adolescent anxiety and depression (outcome). Focusing on this association will provide insight on a comparatively neglected re- lationship between fathers and adolescents, and on the circumstances surrounding anxiety and depression, which represent a major public health concern in this age group. Our secondary aims were to summarise findings on any potential mediators and moderators of this relationship investigated by included studies, and the relative importance of maternal mental health where investigated by included studies.

2. Methods

2.1. Inclusion and exclusion criteria

The protocol for this systematic review was registered on PROSPERO and can be accessed at www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/ display_record.asp?ID=CRD42018094076. We followed PRISMA reporting guidelines, and a checklist can be found in Supplementary File 1. In light of the changing role of fathers between the 20th and 21st centuries, we sought to capture studies published since the year 2000 to ensure that the studies were as reflective of contemporary father-adolescent relationships as possible (Livingston, 2013; Parker & Wang, 2013). In addition, to ensure that we did not conflate results for child, adolescent and adult offspring, we focusedon the 11–17 year age range. With ongoing debate around the ‘true’ age of adolescence (Sawyer, Azzopardi, Wickremarathne, & Patton, 2018), this period was felt to capture adolescent years with the most certainty: 11 is the lowest age captured by globally relevant adolescent heath surveys (Sawyer et al., 2018), and 18 is adopted by the United Nations to mark adulthood (UN General Assembly, 1989). Therefore, we included studies which (i) as part of the primary aim, investigated the direct relationship between paternal mental health as the exposure, and adolescent anxiety or depression as the outcome; (ii) included adolescents in the 11–17 year age range at the time of outcome measurement; (iii) were published in English; (iv) were published since the year 2000. We excluded studies which did not meet inclusion criteria, or (i) were systematic reviews, grey literature, or conference abstracts; (ii) only investigated paternal mental health as a confounder, mediator or moderator; (iii) did not use primary data, or if using secondary data, did not use a methodology which had been previously published; (iv) did not use a validated measurement in- strument or diagnostic procedure to measure the relevant exposure and outcome; (v) included adolescents outside the 11–17 year age range but did not either stratify analyses to focus exclusively on the 11–17 year age range, or report a mean age inside the 11–17 year age range.

2.2. Outcome

The outcome of interest was anxiety or depression in adolescents. This included internalising problems and emotional symptoms.

2.3. Exposure

The exposure of interest was any paternal mental health problem, including drug and alcohol misuse.

2.4. Search strategy

The search was conducted between May and June 2019. PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, and Ovid (Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, Global Health, and PsycINFO) were searched using key words on 21 May 2019. Key words were constructed around the following five concepts which needed to be captured by the included studies:

The full search strategy for Ovid MEDLINE can be found in Table 1. Duplicates were removed in Endnote. Titles, abstracts and full texts were screened according to the study inclusion and exclusion criteria. Reference lists of included studies and related literature reviews were hand searched. Relevant titles found during the hand search were then screened according to eligibility criteria. The search and screening was conducted by AW, and independently cross- checked by DL. If the authors were uncertain of an article's eligibility, the article was discussed and screened together, and a consensus was reached. A PRISMA flow diagram is presented in Fig. 1.

2.5. Data extraction and analysis

A data extraction form was developed, piloted and completed by AW. Data was extracted on study design, participant char- acteristics, exposure and outcome measurement, covariates and relevant findings. Data extraction was independently cross-checked by DL. Disagreements over data extraction were discussed and a consensus reached. Authors were contacted to supply missing information. Results are presented in a narrative synthesis. We did not find multiple studies which looked at the same exposures and outcomes, and which used similar study designs or statistical analyses to do so. Therefore in accordance with guidance from the Cochrane Collaboration which advises against combining the results of studies which make heterogenous comparisons, we did not synthesize the results in a meta-analysis (Cochrane Collaboration, 2011). Risk of bias was assessed at the study level using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for cohort studies (Wells et al., 2012) and a version of the scale adapted for cross-sectional studies (Herzog et al., 2013). Two items on sample size and statistical testing only appear in the cross-sectional version of the scale, but as an important aspect of study quality, we also applied these items to the cohort studies, as has been done previously (Epstein et al., 2018). AW and DL independently conducted risk of bias assessments. Dis- agreements were discussed and a consensus reached. Study quality and risk of bias were taken into consideration throughout the narrative synthesis to help ascertain the strength of the studies’ findings.

3. Results

3.1. Study characteristics

In total, 14 studies were identified for inclusion in this review, collectively providing data on 31 271 fathers and 41205ado- lescents. The characteristics and findings of included studies are outlined in Table 2. The majority of included studies utilised a cross- sectional design. Some made use of longitudinal cohorts, such as the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (Elgar, Mills, McGrath, Waschbusch, & Brownridge, 2007). The follow-up periods of interest for the longitudinal study designs were one to three years (Tyrell, Yates, Reynolds, Fabricius, & Braver, 2018) two years (Elgar et al., 2007), four and seven years (Lewis, Neary, Polek, Flouri, & Lewis, 2017). Reeb and Conger (2009) did not specify the length of follow-up period. Lewis et al. (2017) analysed data from two cohorts, Growing Up in Ireland and the Millennium Cohort Study, giving them the largest total adolescent sample of the included studies (n = 6070 and n = 7768). The other studies had adolescent samples ranging from n = 81 (Kane & Garber, 2009) to n = 7809 (Amrock & Weitzman, 2014). Participating offspring ranged from ages 4–19 years (although we focus on results reported from analyses encompassing the adolescent years). A variety of instruments were used to

Flow diagram of study selection. measure adolescent anxiety and depression, usually identifying disorders through the endorsement of emotions or behaviours by the adolescents or their parents. Only two studies conducted diagnostic interviews to identify adolescent anxiety and depression (Agerup, Lydersen, Wallander, & Sund, 2015; Ohannessian et al., 2005). Studies most frequently investigated paternal affective and anxiety disorders in relation to adolescent anxiety and depression, with nine of the included studies reporting on associations with paternal depression, anxiety, or internalising problems. Four studies investigated the effect of paternal alcohol misuse on adolescents. Other investigated paternal mental health disorders wereex- ternalising problems, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), nonspecific psychopathology, antisocial personality disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and avoidant personality problems. The following sections summarise the findings for eachofthese exposures. Where possible, we focus on the results from final models and analyses reported by the included studies, typically after adjusting for covariates.

3.2. Overview of study quality

Risk of bias assessments for all included studies can be found in Table 3 (cohort studies) and Table 4 (cross-sectional studies). It was a requirement that all included studies state the association between paternal and adolescent mental health as part of their primary aim, therefore the objective of all studies was clear. However, some aspects of the included studies were poorly reported. In some cases, the study design was not explicitly defined, and the data extractors had to decide the most likely design(Agerup et al., 2015; Choi et al., 2013; Middeldorp et al., 2016; Rognmo, Torvik, Ask, Røysamb, & Tambs, 2012; Selimbasic, Sinanovic, Avdibegovic, Brkic, & Hamidovic, 2017). The final sample size of included fathers was not always stated(Boricevic Marsanic, Aukst Margetic, Jukic, Matko, & Grgic, 2014; Ohannessian et al., 2005; Reeb & Conger, 2009; Selimbasic et al., 2017), such that the number of cases used in analyses was sometimes unclear. Additionally, the sample sizes were varied. Kane and Garber (2009) and Selimbasic et al. (2017) adopted the lowest adolescent sample sizes (n = 81 and n = 120 respectively), but did not report power calculations or otherwise justify their numbers. Overall the studies were reasonably consistent in reporting important descriptive statistics such as adolescent gender and age. However, it was not always clear whether the participating parents were biological parents, stepparents, adoptive or foster parents.

Where this was specified, there was heterogeneity between the studies: for instance, Ohannessian et al. (2005) only sampled bio- logical fathers, Tyrell et al. (2018) further included stepfathers, and Elgar et al. (2007) also included stepparents, adoptive parents and foster parents. Additionally, many of the studies acknowledged some selection bias that caused the representativeness of their samples to be in doubt, and there was often limited capacity to generalise their findings to other populations. However, a major strength of the included studies is that almost all of them gave some consideration to covariates and confounders. It was required that all studies use a validated instrument or diagnostic procedure to measure the relevant exposures and out- comes, so the psychometric properties of instruments in included studies are largely reasonable. However, there were some issues, such as Choi et al. (2013) using adolescents as informants to measure paternal drinking problems. There was also variation in whether studies assessed parents and adolescents for a diagnosis, or whether they measured symptoms, the clinical importance of which may be in question. Additionally, the procedures for data collection were sometimes poorly reported. In particular, blinding of assessors was only explicitly discussed in one study (Agerup et al., 2015), although this is likely because many studies used self-report measures rather than assessors.

3.3. Paternal depression and anxiety

Eight studies investigated the association between paternal depression and adolescent outcomes. Most studies found evidence for associations between paternal depression and either adolescent depression, anxiety, or internalising problems (Elgar et al., 2007; Kane & Garber, 2009; Lewis et al., 2017; Ohannessian et al., 2005; Ranoyen, Klockner, Wallander, & Jozefiak, 2015; Reeb & Conger, 2009). Three of these were longitudinal studies which received high study quality ratings. In particular, Lewis et al. (2017) employed two large prospective cohorts, providing evidence for a possible causal relationship between paternal and adolescent depression. Meanwhile, only two cross-sectional studies (neither of which had high study quality ratings) investigated paternal anxiety as an exposure, but both found it to be associated with adolescent depression and anxiety (Middeldorp et al., 2016; Ranoyen et al., 2015). The majority of studies therefore found associations between paternal and adolescent depression and anxiety. However, some findings were contradictory. Tyrell et al. (2018) did not find paternal depressive symptoms to predict internalising problems in adolescent waves of their cross-lagged model of longitudinal data, although this was rated as the lowest quality longitudinal study. Middeldorp et al. (2016) also did not find any evidence for a cross-sectional association between paternal depression and adolescent anxiety or depression, although they acknowledge a response bias in their sample, with a possible underestimation of psycho- pathology prevalence rates in fathers. Ohannessian et al. (2005) found paternal depression to be cross-sectionally associated with adolescent depression but not anxiety, and Kane and Garber (2009) found paternal depressive symptoms to be cross-sectionally associated with mother-reported (Achenbach, 1991a), but not self-reported adolescent internalising symptoms (Achenbach, 1991b). Finally, Agerup et al. (2015) did not find paternal internalising problems to be cross-sectionally associated with adolescent de- pression, although their fairly modest sample size may have limited their power to detect an effect.

3.4. Paternal alcohol misuse

Choi et al. (2013) found a cross-sectional association between paternal alcohol misuse and adolescent depression and anxiety. However, it should be noted that Choi et al. (2013) did not consider the potentially confounding effects of socioeconomic status, and only measured paternal drinking using the adolescent as an informant, so the validity of their findings are in doubt. The remaining studies did not find alcohol abuse or dependence to be associated with adolescent depression oranxiety(Ohannessian et al., 2005; Ranoyen et al., 2015), or else only found a borderline significant association (Rognmo et al., 2012), and no longitudinal studies investigated this association.

3.5. Other paternal mental health disorders

Six studies investigated other paternal mental health disorders. Paternal externalising problems (Agerup et al., 2015), antisocial personality disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (Middeldorp et al., 2016) were not found to be cross-sectionally associated with adolescent depression or anxiety. However, findings regarding other paternal affective or anxiety disorders werevery mixed. Paternal nonspecific psychopathology or distress predicted adolescent depression in a large, high quality longitudinal study (Lewis et al., 2017), but not adolescent emotional symptoms in a large cross-sectional study (Amrock & Weitzman, 2014). Paternal PTSD was cross-sectionally associated with adolescent internalising symptoms in Boričević Maršanić et al. (2014) but gave conflicting results in Selimbasic et al. (2017). Finally, paternal avoidant personality problems were not cross-sectionally associated with ado- lescent depression and anxiety in Middeldorp et al. (2016).

3.6. The role of maternal mental health

The role of maternal mental health was considered in the majority of studies. Reeb and Conger (2009) took account of the effects of maternal mental health as a covariate in longitudinal analyses, while others considered maternal mental health as another ex- posure associated with of adolescent mental health. Their findings largely suggested that adolescent anxiety or depression was associated with both maternal and paternal mental health, often reporting similar statistically significant or non-significant asso- ciations for each parent in both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies (Amrock & Weitzman, 2014; Lewis et al., 2017; Middeldorp et al., 2016; Ranoyen et al., 2015; Tyrell et al., 2018). However, there were some exceptions. For instance, maternal but not paternal

242 A. Wickersham, et al. Journal of Adolescence 79 (2020) 232–246 depression was cross-sectionally associated with adolescent anxiety in Ohannessian et al. (2005). Two other cross-sectional studies suggested that adolescent wellbeing might be more associated with maternal than paternal mental health (Agerup et al., 2015; Rognmo et al., 2012).

3.7. Other findings

Several studies considered the role of adolescent gender, although the way they did so was varied, with some adjusting analyses for gender as a covariate and others stratifying analyses by gender. Among those which aimed to explore the effect of adolescent gender, one longitudinal study found a greater impact of paternal mental health in girls than in boys (Reeb & Conger, 2009). Others found that the effect of adolescent gender varied according to whether the outcome under study was depression oranxiety(Choi et al., 2013) and according to whether associations were concurrent or longitudinal (Elgar et al., 2007). Still more found no sig- nificant evidence for an effect of adolescent gender(Middeldorp et al., 2016; Ohannessian et al., 2005; Ranoyen et al., 2015; Rognmo et al., 2012; Selimbasic et al., 2017). A range of other mediators and moderators in the relationship between paternal and adolescent mental health were also explored. However, these findings are tentative and should be interpreted with caution. For instance, there was longitudinal evidence fromone study that parental rejection and low parental monitoring may be mediators on the pathway between parental depression more generally and adolescent internalising disorders (Elgar et al., 2007). Another longitudinal study suggested that father-daughter closeness may modify the effect of paternal depression on female adolescent depression (Reeb & Conger, 2009). Findings from other studies were more inconclusive. Rognmo et al. (2012) proposed a range of mediators and moderators between paternal alcohol abuse and adolescent mental health, but found no significant interactions, and did not present adequate mediation analyses to properly determine their role in the association. It is similarly unclear how the modifying effects of ethnicity, family structure and adolescent gender impacted Tyrell et al. (2018) findings during the study waves limited to adolescence.

4. Discussion

The primary aim of this review was to synthesize the evidence on the relationship between paternal mental health and adolescent anxiety and depression. Overall, there is evidence to suggest that some mental health disorders in fathers are associated with anxiety and depression in adolescents. Consistent with previous research, paternal depression was the most strongly evidenced variable associated with adolescent anxiety and depression, while evidence for an association with other paternal disorders was more limited.

4.1. Research implications

Paternal depression has received a large amount of attention in recent years, and as was the case at the time of Ramchandani and Psychogiou’s (2009) review, depression remains the most comprehensively studied psychiatric disorder in this field. But the effect of other paternal affective and anxiety disorders has been comparatively neglected. Other studies which investigated theeffectsof paternal anxiety including children outside the 11–17 year age range have produced mixed results (Al-Turkait & Ohaeri, 2008; Clark, Cornelius, Wood, & Vanyukov, 2004; Esbjorn et al., 2013). Depression and anxiety are highly comorbid (Kessler et al., 2015), and as such studies about depression may also speak to the association between paternal and adolescent anxiety to some extent. However, the research landscape would now benefit from a robust, large scale longitudinal study on the effect of paternal anxiety onadolescent outcomes. It would also benefit from further investigation of the effects of paternal comorbidities and of other paternal anxiety disorders, such as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and PTSD. Most studies did not find that alcohol misuse and other behavioural disorders in fathers were associated with anxiety orde- pression in adolescents. Findings in other age groups are more mixed (Agerup, Lydersen, Wallander, & Sund, 2014; Ayer, Kohl, Malsberger, & Burgette, 2016; Fals-Stewart, Kelley, Fincham, Golden, & Logsdon, 2004; Kelley & Fals-Stewart, 2004; Moss, Baron, Hardie, & Vanyukov, 2001; Moss, Lynch, Hardie, & Baron, 2002), but in this regard our findings are consistent with the suggestion that specific mental health disorders in parents are more likely to be associated that same mental health disorder inchildren(Clark et al., 2004). Although continued clarification of whether externalising disorders in fathers are associated with internalising disorders in adolescents might be beneficial, future research could focus on paternal anxiety and depression as risk factors for anxietyand depression in adolescents. Connell and Goodman (2002) and Ramchandani and Psychogiou (2009) suggested that mothers might have a greater impact on emotional and internalising outcomes. Findings in other age groups regarding the primacy of maternal versus paternal mental health are mixed (Agerup et al., 2014; Al-Turkait & Ohaeri, 2008; Clark et al., 2004; Jacobs, Talati, Wickramaratne, & Warner, 2015). However, in our review the association between paternal mental health and adolescent anxiety and depression was not negligible, and most included studies did not find maternal mental health to be more influential than paternal mental health. Thereforethe importance of fathers in adolescent emotional wellbeing must not be underestimated, and future research should continue to consider the effect of fathers to an equal extent as mothers. There is speculation in the literature that sons might be more exposed to the effects of paternal mental health disorders compared to daughters. However, the small number of our included studies which investigated this did not find strong evidence for adolescent gender moderating the association between paternal and adolescent mental health. This finding might be interpreted in various ways. For instance, the increased vulnerability experienced by boys who are thought to spend more time with fathers (Raley & Bianchi, 2006) might be offset by the increased vulnerability experienced by girls who are thought to be more empathetic totheemotionsof

243 A. Wickersham, et al. Journal of Adolescence 79 (2020) 232–246 others (Christov-Moore et al., 2014). Other factors such as parenting practices and the father-adolescent relationship may play a role. Parenting practices are included in Ramchandani and Psychogiou’s (2009) proposed model on the pathway between paternal and child psychopathology. While this model might also apply to adolescents, it has been noted that the nature of relationships between fathers and their offspring changes as the child ages (Flouri & Buchanan, 2003). Therefore, a similar but distinct model might be developed for adolescents, with greater emphasis on factors which might be especially pertinent in the adolescent age group, such as father-adolescent conflict (Sheeber, Davis, Leve, Hops, & Tildesley, 2007) and peer support (Vaughan, Foshee, & Ennett, 2010). Additionally, the potentially mediating or moderating effects of family dynamics and structure may be worthy of further investigation in this particular context(Bramlett & Blumberg, 2007), such as the role of non-resident fathers (Flouri, 2006) and other family-level factors thought to mediate the association between father and adolescent mental health, such as marital conflict (Sweeney & MacBeth, 2016). Future studies should continue to explore mechanisms in the association between paternal and adolescent mental health, towards developing a pathway model which is informed by what is already known for younger children, but which also considers other factors relevant to the adolescent development period. Finally, it is important to note that the focus of this review was the association between paternal mental health as an exposure and adolescent mental health as an outcome, and we only included studies which treated these variables as such. However, many of the studies included in this review were cross-sectional, such that we are unable to infer a direction of effect with any certainty. Indeed, there is growing evidence to suggest that the relationships between child and parent mental health may be reciprocal (Ahmadzadeh et al., 2019). Exploring bidirectional effects was beyond the scope of this review, but should be a topic for further investigation.

4.2. Clinical implications

Given the small number of high quality, longitudinal studies identified in this review, caution is warranted in adopting these findings into clinical practice. Nonetheless, the potential association between paternal and adolescent mental health couldhave tentative implications for how fathers and adolescents are supported. First, it remains important that primary care settings be equipped to identify mental health disorders in fathers, and that support is equally accessible for both mothers and fathers, parti- cularly in light of known gender disparities in help-seeking behaviour (Oliver, Pearson, Coe, & Gunnell, 2005). Second, the mental well-being of the father (and indeed the family more generally) should continue to be considered when assessing and treating adolescents for mental health disorders. Kane and Garber (2004) have previously suggested that family-based interventions might benefit from including and supporting fathers as part of efforts made to treat adolescent mental health disorders. Whetherornotthis is successful may depend on other factors mediating or moderating the relationship between paternal and adolescent mental health – future efforts to explore these mechanisms will therefore contribute to the discussion around how best to intervene whenpaternaland adolescent mental health disorders co-occur.

4.3. Limitations

Our search terms and strategy were in keeping with the primary aim of our review, and we followed PRISMA reporting guidelines (Moher, Liberati, Tetzlaff, & Altman, 2009). However, our review has several limitations. First, due to time constraints, key re- searchers in the field were not contacted to suggest relevant titles. Second, attempts to focus on the adolescent age range of 11–17 years were hampered by the variability of age ranges adopted in studies, with many excluded because they recruited children of various ages but did not report separate results for adolescents and younger children. This speaks to the challenge of identifying the precise definition of adolescence (Sawyer et al., 2018). Adolescence does represent a developmental period encompassing major biological and social transitions, and efforts to distinguish it from childhood in research and analyses must be made. Future studies should avoid conflating childhood and adolescence, and some attempt to stratify by age should be made in statistical analyses, such that conclusions on the differential associations in childhood and adolescence can be drawn. Third, as discussed in our results section, the quality of included studies was mixed. Study quality was rated using existing versions of the NOS, and some items were less suited to this review – for instance, studies were only included if they used validated measurement instruments or diagnostic procedures for assessing mental health, so all studies necessarily met quality criteria for methods of exposure and outcome ascertainment. Nonetheless, inconsistent reporting of important methodological features such as study design, power calculations, data collection procedures, and the possible role of bias were particularly concerning. Authors in this field would benefit from following reporting guidelines for observational studies(von Elm et al., 2007). Finally, we only included studies which investigated the direct association between paternal and adolescent mental health as part of the primary aim. While this ensured that potentially spurious secondary findings were not included, relevant findings mayhave been missed. Additionally, we could not draw meaningful conclusions regarding mechanisms in the relationship between paternal and adolescent mental health, because our primary interest was in the direct association.

5. Conclusions

The findings of this review reiterate the importance of paternal depression in adolescent mental health. However, the findingsalso highlight the need for continued consideration of the relationship between other paternal mental health disorders, particularly anxiety disorders, and adolescent anxiety and depression. Additional priorities for research include further exploration of

244 A. Wickersham, et al. Journal of Adolescence 79 (2020) 232–246 mechanisms, and study designs which can imply a causal direction and which do not conflate child and adolescent age groups. Importantly, despite previous implications that fathers primarily influence adolescent externalising and behavioural problems, evidence that they were any less implicated in their adolescent's emotional wellbeing than mothers was sparse in this review. The importance of the father in adolescent emotional wellbeing should not be underestimated.
