Attentional avoidance of fearful facial expressions following early life stress is associated with impaired social functioning / Kathryn L. HUMPHREYS in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 57-10 (October 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 57-10 (October 2016) . - p.1174-1182 Titre : Attentional avoidance of fearful facial expressions following early life stress is associated with impaired social functioning Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kathryn L. HUMPHREYS, Auteur ; Katharina KIRCANSKI, Auteur ; Natalie L. COLICH, Auteur ; Ian H. GOTLIB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1174-1182 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Early life stress  attentional bias  fearful faces  social problems Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Early life stress is associated with poorer social functioning. Attentional biases in response to threat-related cues, linked to both early experience and psychopathology, may explain this association. To date, however, no study has examined attentional biases to fearful facial expressions as a function of early life stress or examined these biases as a potential mediator of the relation between early life stress and social problems. Methods In a sample of 154 children (ages 9–13 years) we examined the associations among interpersonal early life stressors (i.e., birth through age 6 years), attentional biases to emotional facial expressions using a dot-probe task, and social functioning on the Child Behavior Checklist. Results High levels of early life stress were associated with both greater levels of social problems and an attentional bias away from fearful facial expressions, even after accounting for stressors occurring in later childhood. No biases were found for happy or sad facial expressions as a function of early life stress. Finally, attentional biases to fearful faces mediated the association between early life stress and social problems. Conclusions Attentional avoidance of fearful facial expressions, evidenced by a bias away from these stimuli, may be a developmental response to early adversity and link the experience of early life stress to poorer social functioning.

Early life stress, cortisol, frontolimbic connectivity, and depressive symptoms during puberty / Katharina KIRCANSKI in Development and Psychopathology, 31-3 (August 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 31-3 (August 2019) . - p.1011-1022 Titre : Early life stress, cortisol, frontolimbic connectivity, and depressive symptoms during puberty Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Katharina KIRCANSKI, Auteur ; Lucinda M.

In this study, we examined in early pubertal youth the associations among ELS, cortisol stress responsivity, and white matter microstructure of the uncinate fasciculus and the fornix, two key frontolimbic tracts; we also tested whether and how these variables predicted depressive symptoms in later puberty. A total of 208 participants (117 females; M age = 11.37 years; M Tanner stage = 2.03) provided data across two or more assessment modalities: ELS; salivary cortisol levels during a psychosocial stress task; diffusion magnetic resonance imaging; and depressive symptoms. In early puberty there were significant associations between higher ELS and decreased cortisol production, and between decreased cortisol production and increased fractional anisotropy in the uncinate fasciculus. Further, increased fractional anisotropy in the uncinate fasciculus predicted higher depressive symptoms in later puberty, above and beyond earlier symptoms. In post hoc analyses, we found that sex moderated several additional associations. We discuss these findings within a broader conceptual model linking ELS, emotion dysregulation, and depression across the transition through puberty, and contend that brain circuits implicated in the control of hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis function should be a focus of continued research.

Heightened sensitivity to the caregiving environment during adolescence: implications for recovery following early-life adversity / Natalie L. COLICH in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 62-8 (August 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 62-8 (August 2021) Titre : Heightened sensitivity to the caregiving environment during adolescence: implications for recovery following early-life adversity Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Natalie L. COLICH, Auteur ; Margaret A. SHERIDAN, Auteur ; Kathryn L. HUMPHREYS, Auteur ; Mark WADE, Auteur ; Florin TIBU, Auteur ; Charles A. NELSON, Auteur ; Charles H. ZEANAH, Auteur ; Nathan A. FOX, Auteur ; Katie A. MCLAUGHLIN, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Adverse Childhood Experiences  Child  Child, Institutionalized  Foster Home Care  Humans  Psychopathology  Psychosocial Deprivation  Institutionalization  adolescence  executive function  psychopathology  reward Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Adolescence has been proposed to be a period of heightened sensitivity to environmental influence. If true, adolescence may present a window of opportunity for recovery for children exposed to early-life adversity. Recent evidence supports adolescent recalibration of stress response systems following early-life adversity. However, it is unknown whether similar recovery occurs in other domains of functioning in adolescence. METHODS: We use data from the Bucharest Early Intervention Project - a randomized controlled trial of foster care for children raised in psychosocially depriving institutions - to examine the associations of the caregiving environment with reward processing, executive functioning, and internalizing and externalizing psychopathology at ages 8, 12, and 16 years, and evaluate whether these associations change across development. RESULTS: Higher quality caregiving in adolescence was associated with greater reward responsivity and lower levels of internalizing and externalizing symptoms, after covarying for the early-life caregiving environment. The associations of caregiving with executive function and internalizing and externalizing symptoms varied by age and were strongest at age 16 relative to ages 8 and 12 years. This heightened sensitivity to caregiving in adolescence was observed in both children with and without exposure to early psychosocial neglect. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescence may be a period of heightened sensitivity to the caregiving environment, at least for some domains of functioning. For children who experience early psychosocial deprivation, this developmental period may be a window of opportunity for recovery of some functions. Albeit correlational, these findings suggest that it may be possible to reverse or remediate some of the lasting effects of early-life adversity with interventions that target caregiving during adolescence.

Neural and Behavioral Responses During Self-Evaluative Processes Differ in Youth With and Without Autism / Jennifer H. PFEIFER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-2 (February 2013)

Compared to neurotypical youth, those with ASD exhibited hypoactivation of ventromedial prefrontal cortex during self-appraisals. Responses in middle cingulate cortex (MCC) and anterior insula (AI) also distinguished between groups. Stronger activity in MCC and AI during self-appraisals was associated with better social functioning in the ASD group. Although self-appraisals were significantly more positive in the neurotypical group, positivity was unrelated to brain activity in these regions. Together, these results suggest that multiple brain regions support making self-appraisals in neurotypical development, and function atypically in youth with ASD.

The association between early life stress and prefrontal cortex activation during implicit emotion regulation is moderated by sex in early adolescence / Natalie L. COLICH in Development and Psychopathology, 29-5 (December 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 29-5 (December 2017) . - p.1851-1864 Titre : The association between early life stress and prefrontal cortex activation during implicit emotion regulation is moderated by sex in early adolescence Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Natalie L.

GOTLIB, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1851-1864 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Early life stress (ELS) is a significant risk factor for the emergence of internalizing problems in adolescence. Beginning in adolescence, females are twice as likely as males to experience internalizing disorders. The present study was designed to examine sex differences in the association between ELS and internalizing problems in early pubertal adolescents, and whether and how corticolimbic function and connectivity may underlie these associations. Fifty-nine early pubertal males and 78 early pubertal females, ages 9–13 years (all Tanner Stage 3 or below) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging as they performed an emotion label task that robustly interrogates corticolimbic function. Participants were also interviewed about their experience of ELS. Females exhibited a positive association between ELS and internalizing problems, whereas males exhibited no such association. Whole-brain and amygdala region of interest analyses indicated that whereas females exhibited a positive association between ELS and the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex during implicit emotion regulation, males showed no such association. Activation in these regions was positively associated with internalizing problems in females but not males; however, activation in these regions did not mediate the association between ELS and internalizing problems. Finally, both boys and girls exhibited an association between ELS and increased negative connectivity between the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex and bilateral amygdala. Using a carefully characterized sample of early pubertal adolescents, the current study highlights important sex differences in the development of corticolimbic circuitry during a critical period of brain development. These sex differences may play a significant role in subsequent risk for internalizing problems.
