Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 48-8 (August 2007) . - p.785–792 Titre : Chronic physical illness and mental health in children. Results from a large-scale population study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mari HYSING, Auteur ; Christopher GILLBERG, Auteur ; Astri J. LUNDERVOLD, Auteur ; Stein Atle LIE, Auteur ; Irene ELGEN, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.785–792 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Chronic-illness SDQ DAWBA population-study Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in detecting emotional and behavioural problems among children with chronic illness (CI). Methods: Parents and teachers of a population of primary school children in Norway (n = 9430) completed a questionnaire including the SDQ, and a question about chronic illness. A total of 74% (n = 7007) of the parents participated. A sub-sample (n = 1040) was given a psychiatric diagnostic evaluation according to the Development and Well-Being Assessment (DAWBA). Results: According to parent reports, 537 (8%) children had a CI. The SDQ revealed an increased risk of emotional and behavioural problems in children with CI as compared with non-CI peers, both among boys (OR = 2.10 CI 95% 1.56–2.83) and girls (OR = 2.11 CI 95% 1.49–2.99). Children with CI also showed an increased risk of psychiatric disorder as assessed by the DAWBA (OR = 1.70 CI 95% 1.04–2.85). Both the sensitivity and specificity of the SDQ in predicting a psychiatric diagnosis were high, even when only information from parents was included. Conclusion: Children with CI in the general population are at increased risk of behavioural and emotional problems and psychiatric disorders. Given its high sensitivity and specificity the SDQ might work well as a screening instrument for behaviour/emotional problems and psychiatric disorder in children with CI.

Reduced white matter connectivity in the corpus callosum of children with Tourette syndrome / Kerstin J. PLESSEN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-10 (October 2006)

HIRSCH, Auteur ; Arvid LUNDERVOLD, Auteur ; Renate GRUNER, Auteur ; Kenneth HUGDAHL, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.1013–1022 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Tourette-syndrome brain-development brain-imaging Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Brain imaging studies have revealed anatomical anomalies in the brains of individuals with Tourette syndrome (TS). Prefrontal regions have been found to be larger and the corpus callosum (CC) area smaller in children and young adults with TS compared with healthy control subjects, and these anatomical features have been understood to reflect neural plasticity that helps to attenuate the severity of tics. Method: CC white matter connectivity, as measured by the Fractional Anisotropy (FA) index from diffusion tensor images, was assessed in 20 clinically well-defined boys with Tourette syndrome and 20 age- and gender-matched controls. Results: The hypothesis that children with TS would show reduced measures of connectivity in CC fibers was confirmed for all subregions of the CC. There was no significant interaction of TS and region. Reductions in FA in CC regions may reflect either fewer interhemispheric fibers or reduced axonal myelination. FA values did not correlate significantly with the severity of tic symptoms. Group differences in measures of connectivity did not seem to be attributable to the presence of comorbid ADHD or OCD, to medication exposure, or group differences in IQ. Conclusion: Our findings of a reduced interhemispheral white matter connectivity add to the understanding of neural connectivity and plasticity in the brains of children who have TS.

Should there be separate parent and teacher-based categories of ODD? Evidence from a general population / Linda MUNKVOLD in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 50-10 (October 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 50-10 (October 2009) . - p.1264-1272 Titre : Should there be separate parent and teacher-based categories of ODD? Evidence from a general population Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Linda MUNKVOLD, Auteur ; Astri J.

Method: Data were collected from 7007 children (aged 7–9) who participated in The Bergen Child Study (BCS), an ongoing population-based study of children's development and mental health. ODD symptoms were measured by the SNAP-IV (Swanson, Nolan, & Pelham-IV) Oppositional Defiant Disorder sub-scale (SNAP-IV ODD) that was distributed to parents and teachers. Co-occurring symptoms of mental health problems were measured by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Results and Conclusion: Prevalence-estimates of ODD varied considerably depending on how ratings from parents and teachers were combined. Specific ODD symptoms occurred at very different rates depending on the rater and on the gender of the child being rated. Parents and teachers co-identified very few children with ODD. ODD identified by only one informant was associated with high levels of comorbid mental health problems and impairment according to both informants. The results support an informant-specific conceptualization of childhood ODD.
