Prenatal and Postpartum Maternal Psychological Distress and Infant Development: A Systematic Review (2012, background): “Hertzman and Boyce [51] conceptualized developmental risk factors as those that are most proximal to the child (e.g., family-based factors), those in the meso-environment (e.g., neighbourhood; school), and those belonging to the macro-environment (social/economic/ political).”
