“…This result is consistent with the studies in European and Latin American countries despite the difference in the cultural and social characteristics [12,16]. In another study carried out in Japan, subjects who experienced "paternal affectionless control" displayed less ability to adapt with anxiety and stress, leading to mental disorders in these individuals [23]. The attachment theory of Bowlby underscores that ine cient parental style such as excessive control can make children more prone to mental disorders [11].…”

Background: Numerous bio-psychosocial factors play a role in the etiology of psychiatric disorders. In this regard, the relationship between parents and their children is significantly involved in developing the offspring mental health. However, there is no clear-cut answer as to which parental bonding style is more strongly associated with psychiatric diseases of patients. This study aimed to compare parental bonding styles in patients with schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder in Bushehr province, Iran in 2018.Methods: In this cross-sectional comparative study, 130 patients with schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder who referred to four outpatients psychiatric centers in Bushehr were selected using quota sampling. The patients were assessed and compared in terms of parental bonding styles. Data were collected using a valid and reliable parental bonding instrument (PBI). Data were analyzed using SPSS software (ver. 22), Chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis tests at a significant level of 0.05.Results: Results showed that the optimal parental bonding style (low control, high care) in bipolar disorder (43.05%), major depression (47.7%), and schizophrenia(38.5%) was the most prevalent style of parental bonding; however, 62.30% of the above patients suffered from inefficient paternal bonding styles and 51.53% from inefficient maternal bonding styles. Furthermore, the patients' maternal bonding styles were significantly different (p= 0.007) while their paternal bonding styles did not show any significant differences (p = 0.848).Conclusions: Most of the patients with psychiatric disorders were affected by ineffective parenting styles. The results also confirmed that despite the several bio-psycho-social factors involved in the development of psychiatric disorders, the crucial roles of parents, especially mothers, should not be ignored. It was further suggested that parents and parental bonding were important and fundamental factors for mental health promotion.

“…Subsequent studies show that parental rearing evaluated by the PBI is related to psychiatric disorders such as major depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and eating disorders. [3][4][5][6][7] With regard to other aspects, our studies suggest that anomalous parenting as assessed by the PBI is associated with some personality dimensions of the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) and the NEO Personality Inventory. 8,9 These empirical studies suggest a close connection between human attachment and the characterization of personality, supporting Bowlby's 1 attachment theory with practical data.…”

“…They were recruited from medical students or staff in Yamagata University Hospital and its affiliated hospitals by KN, AS, TS, NT, and KO. Criteria of exclusion were 1) serious physical illnesses as clarified by a self-report checklist, 2) current or past history of psychiatric disorders of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-IV, as clarified by the psychiatric screening previously described, 4,25 and 3) parental divorce or death before the age of 16. The DSM-IV was used in this study, since the DSM-5 was not yet available in 2009 when the enrollment started.…”

Attachment research shows that attachment experiences with parents in childhood influence the characterization of personality traits. Meanwhile, it is known that mu-opioid receptor function is involved in human attachment. Furthermore, a few studies suggest that the A118G polymorphism of the mu-opioid receptor gene (OPRM1) is associated with altered mu-opioid receptor function. Thus, we examined if the OPRM1 polymorphism moderates the sensitivity to parental behaviors and thereby contributes to the characterization of personality traits. Materials and Methods: Participants were 725 healthy Japanese. Parenting practices of their parents were evaluated by the Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) with the care and protection subscales. Personality was evaluated using the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI). The OPRM1 A118G polymorphism was detected by a PCR method. Results: Multiple regression analyses revealed significant effects of the interaction between the OPRM1 genotype and maternal protection on scores of the self-directedness and cooperativeness dimensions, while significant main effects of the OPRM1 genotype on scores of the TCI were not found. Further analyses showed that there were significant negative correlations between maternal protection scores and the two dimensional scores in the A/A and A/G genotypes with higher correlation coefficients in the former, but not in the G/G genotype. Conclusion: The present study suggests that the OPRM1 polymorphism contributes to the characterization of personality traits by moderating the sensitivity to parental behaviors, especially maternal protection.

“…21 In line with this, our previous study suggests that a dysfunctional parenting style induces increased neuroticism. 22 On the other hand, it is shown that caregiver maltreatment induces increased BDNF gene methylation in prefrontal cortex, amygdala and hippocampus of rats. 23 In addition, individuals who received childhood abuse or low maternal care show increases in BDNF gene methylation in lymphocytes.…”

BackgroundBrain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophin that has an important function in neuroplasticity and neuronal development. It is suggested that increased methylation of the BDNF gene resulting in decreased BDNF activity is associated with depression. Meanwhile, neuroticism is a well-known risk factor for developing depression. In the present study, the relationship between methylation of the BDNF gene and personality traits including neuroticism was examined.Subjects and methodsThe subjects were 98 healthy Japanese. Methylation levels of the BDNF gene were determined by the bisulfite-pyrosequencing method. Personality traits including neuroticism were assessed by the NEO Personality Inventory-Revised.ResultsThere was a positive correlation between neuroticism scores and methylation levels of the BDNF gene. The subjects with higher neuroticism scores had higher levels of BDNF gene methylation compared with those with lower neuroticism scores. Meanwhile, other personality traits were not associated with BDNF gene methylation.ConclusionThe present study suggests that high neuroticism is related to increased methylation of the BDNF gene.
