Childhood personality pathology: Dimensional stability and change / Barbara DE CLERCQ in Development and Psychopathology, 21-3 (August 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 21-3 (August 2009) . - p.853-869 Titre : Childhood personality pathology: Dimensional stability and change Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Barbara DE CLERCQ, Auteur ; Filip DE FRUYT, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEWEN, Auteur ; Wim VAN DEN NOORTGATE, Auteur ; Marleen DE BOLLE, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.853-869 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Studies on the developmental course of personality disorders have suggested that adult personality disorders enclose both features with a natural plasticity over time, as well as stable components represented by underlying trait dimensions. The current study broadens this dimensional stability perspective toward an earlier developmental stage, and describes with different indices of stability the longitudinal behavior of basic childhood maladaptive trait dimensions in a community sample of 477 Flemish children. The results underscore structural, rank-order, and within-person stability for the disagreeableness, emotional instability, introversion, and compulsivity dimensions and suggest a similar maturation principle as has been proposed for adults. Individual growth curve analyses indicate that children's maladaptive trait scores generally decrease as they grow older, with a smaller decline for high-scoring individuals. Childhood maladaptive traits and general psychopathology dimensions show similar longitudinal patterns in terms of shape and change over time, supporting a spectrum conceptualization of Axis I related pathology and personality disorder precursors at young age. The implications of these findings for a developmental perspective on dimensional conceptualizations of personality disorders are discussed.

How Temperament and Personality Contribute to the Maladjustment of Children With Autism / Sarah S.W. DE PAUW in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 41-2 (February 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-2 (February 2011) . - p.196-212 Titre : How Temperament and Personality Contribute to the Maladjustment of Children With Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sarah S.W. DE PAUW, Auteur ; Ivan MERVIELDE, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEWEN, Auteur ; Barbara DE CLERCQ, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.196-212 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Temperament  Personality  Problem behavior  Maladjustment  Spectrum hypothesis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To test the spectrum hypothesis—postulating that clinical and non-clinical samples are primarily differentiated by mean-level differences—, this study evaluates differences in parent-rated temperament, personality and maladjustment among a low-symptom (N = 81), a high-symptom (N = 94) ASD-group, and a comparison group (N = 500). These classic spectrum hypothesis tests are extended by adding tests for similarity in variances, reliabilities and patterns of covariation between relevant variables. Children with ASD exhibit more extreme means, except for dominance. The low- and high-symptom ASD-groups are primarily differentiated by mean sociability and internal distress. Striking similarities in reliability and pattern of covariation of variables suggest that comparable processes link traits to maladaptation in low- and high-symptom children with ASD and in children with and without autism.

Parenting behaviour among parents of children with autism spectrum disorder / Greet LAMBRECHTS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5-3 (July-September 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 5-3 (July-September 2011) . - p.1143-1152 Titre : Parenting behaviour among parents of children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Greet LAMBRECHTS, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEWEN, Auteur ; Hannah BOONEN, Auteur ; Bea MAES, Auteur ; Ilse L.J. NOENS, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.1143-1152 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Parenting behaviour  Autism spectrum disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Contrary to the extensive amount of empirical findings about parental perceptions, parenting cognitions, and coping in families with a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), research about parenting itself is very scarce. A first goal of this study was to examine the factor structure and internal consistency of two scales to measure parenting behaviour: the Parental Behaviour Scale-short version (PBS, [Van Leeuwen, 2002], [Van Leeuwen and Vermulst, 2004] and [Van Leeuwen and Vermulst, 2010]) and a new scale to measure parenting behaviours more specifically relevant to children with ASD. A second goal was to compare general and more specific parenting behaviour among parents of children with and without ASD. The participants were 305 parents of a child with ASD between 8 and 18 years old and 325 parents of a typically developing child between 8 and 18 years old. Parents completed both scales. Exploratory factor analysis of the new scale resulted in two factors: Stimulating the Development and Adapting the Environment. Multisample confirmatory factor analyses showed good fit indices for the noninvariant model of both the PBS and the new scale. Mean level analyses revealed significant main effects of group with higher mean scores for the control group in comparison with the experimental group for the subscale Harsh Punishment and the reversed effect for the subscale Stimulating the Development. We concluded that it is possible to use the parenting constructs of the PBS-short version to investigate parenting behaviour of parents with and without children with ASD. Furthermore, the new scale showed a relatively stable two factor structure for the control group as well as for the experimental group. The two factors ‘Stimulating the child's Development’ and ‘Adapting the child's Environment’ were also convincing as regards content. A first indication was found that parents of children with ASD indeed use more specifically relevant parenting behaviours. It is self-evident that more research is needed to gain further insight into the nature of these behaviours.
