We studied the prospective association between childhood friendships and psychological difficulties in young adulthood. Data come from 1,103 French 22-35year olds participating in the TEMPO study. Childhood friendships were ascertained in 1991 when participants were 4-16years old. Psychological difficulties were measured in 2009 using the Adult Self-Report. Logistic regression models controlled for participants' age, sex, childhood psychological difficulties and parental characteristics. Young adults who had no childhood friends had higher odds of psychological difficulties than those with at least one friend: (adjusted ORs 2.45; 95% CI 1.32-4.66, p=0.01 for high internalizing symptoms; 1.81; 95% CI 0.94-3.54, p=0.08 for high externalizing symptoms). Social relations early in life may have consequences for adult psychological well-being.
