OverviewAI-generated summary
Bettina Knight's research focuses on perinatal mental health, particularly the intergenerational effects of trauma and the nuances of depressive symptoms in pregnant and postpartum individuals. Her work investigates the associations between parental depression and anxiety prior to birth and infant temperament trajectories over the first year of life. Knight has explored how childhood maltreatment exposure is differentially associated with transdiagnostic perinatal depression symptoms and how positive affect can improve models of these symptoms.
Her publications also examine the severity and role of somatic depressive symptoms within psychological networks in longitudinal samples of women. Knight's scholarly contributions are recognized by a high-impact researcher designation, evidenced by an h-index of 29 and over 3,300 citations across 61 publications. She remains actively engaged in research, with her most recent publication in 2024.
