Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses how parental trauma, like Holocaust exposure, can negatively impact their children’s physical, behavioral, and cognitive health, supported by empirical research.
  • It explains various ways stress can be transmitted across generations, including genetic changes, social learning, biological modifications in reproductive cells, and the influence of early postnatal care.
  • The review highlights biological evidence such as neuroendocrine, epigenetic, and neuroanatomical changes in offspring, while acknowledging that limitations in current research make it difficult to fully understand the causes of these intergenerational effects.
