Titre : Higher cognitive ability buffers stress-related depressive symptoms in adolescent girls Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lucy RIGLIN, Auteur ; Stephan COLLISHAW, Auteur ; Katherine H. SHELTON, Auteur ; I. C. MCMANUS, Auteur ; Terry NG-KNIGHT, Auteur ; Ruth SELLERS, Auteur ; Ajay K. THAPAR, Auteur ; Norah FREDERICKSON, Auteur ; Frances RICE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.97-109 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Stress has been shown to have a causal effect on risk for depression. We investigated the role of cognitive ability as a moderator of the effect of stressful life events on depressive symptoms and whether this varied by gender. Data were analyzed in two adolescent data sets: one representative community sample aged 11–12 years (n = 460) and one at increased familial risk of depression aged 9–17 years (n = 335). In both data sets, a three-way interaction was found whereby for girls, but not boys, higher cognitive ability buffered the association between stress and greater depressive symptoms. The interaction was replicated when the outcome was a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. This buffering effect in girls was not attributable to coping efficacy. However, a small proportion of the variance was accounted for by sensitivity to environmental stressors. Results suggest that this moderating effect of cognitive ability in girls is largely attributable to greater available resources for cognitive operations that offer protection against stress-induced reductions in cognitive processing and cognitive control which in turn reduces the likelihood of depressive symptomatology.

Titre : Maternal depression and co-occurring antisocial behaviour: testing maternal hostility and warmth as mediators of risk for offspring psychopathology Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ruth SELLERS, Auteur ; Gordon T. HAROLD, Auteur ; Kit ELAM, Auteur ; Kimberly A. RHOADES, Auteur ; Robert POTTER, Auteur ; Becky MARS, Auteur ; Nick CRADDOCK, Auteur ; Anita THAPAR, Auteur ; Stephan COLLISHAW, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.112-120 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Hostility warmth mediation depression antisocial behaviour disruptive behaviour Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Disruption in the parent–child relationship is a commonly hypothesized risk factor through which maternal depression may increase risk for offspring psychopathology. However, maternal depression is commonly accompanied by other psychopathology, including antisocial behaviour. Few studies have examined the role of co-occurring psychopathology in depressed mothers. Using a longitudinal study of offspring of mothers with recurrent depression, we aimed to test whether maternal warmth/hostility mediated links between maternal depression severity and child outcomes, and how far direct and indirect pathways were robust to controls for co-occurring maternal antisocial behaviour. Methods Mothers with a history of recurrent major depressive disorder and their adolescent offspring (9–17 years at baseline) were assessed three times between 2007 and 2010. Mothers completed questionnaires assessing their own depression severity and antisocial behaviour at Time 1 (T1). The parent–child relationship was assessed using parent-rated questionnaire and interviewer-rated 5-min speech sample at Time 2 (T2). Offspring symptoms of depression and disruptive behaviours were assessed using the Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Assessment at Time 3 (T3). Results Maternal hostility and warmth, respectively, mediated the association between maternal depression severity and risk for offspring psychopathology. However, the effects were attenuated when maternal antisocial behaviour was included in the analysis. In tests of the full theoretical model, maternal antisocial behaviour predicted both maternal hostility and low warmth, maternal hostility predicted offspring disruptive behaviour disorder symptoms, but not depression, and maternal warmth was not associated with either child outcome. Conclusions Parenting interventions aimed at reducing hostility may be beneficial for preventing or reducing adolescent disruptive behaviours in offspring of depressed mothers, especially when depressed mothers report co-occurring antisocial behaviour.

Titre : Trends in parent- and teacher-rated emotional, conduct and ADHD problems and their impact in prepubertal children in Great Britain: 1999–2008 Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ruth SELLERS, Auteur ; Barbara MAUGHAN, Auteur ; Andrew PICKLES, Auteur ; Anita THAPAR, Auteur ; Stephan COLLISHAW, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.49-57 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Symptomatology survey psychopathology prevalence gender difference Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Evidence from Western countries indicates marked increases in diagnosis and treatment of childhood psychiatric disorders in recent years. These could reflect changes in prevalence of mental health problems, changes in their impact or increased clinical recognition and help-seeking. Epidemiological cross-cohort comparisons are required to test possible changes in prevalence, but are lacking for pre-adolescent children in Great Britain. Methods Parent and teacher Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) ratings were used to compare rates of emotional, conduct and hyperactivity problems in 7-year-old children across three nationally representative British samples assessed in 1999 (n = 1033), 2004 (n = 648) and 2008 (n = 13 857). The SDQ impact supplement was used to assess associated distress, social, and educational impairment. Stratified analyses examined trends by gender and socio-economic group. Results There was a decline in mean problem scores and a fall in the percentages scoring in the ‘abnormal’ range for all symptom types across the period of study. This decline was observed for all demographic groups, for parent and teacher reports, and was more marked for boys than girls. Both parent- and teacher-rated impact scores differed across the three cohorts for boys. Teacher-rated impact scores differed across cohorts for girls. Conclusions The first decade of the 21st Century saw a reduction in perceived levels of emotional and behaviour problems in pre-adolescent children in Great Britain. The threshold at which mental health problems have an impact on children's distress and classroom learning has changed over time. Continued monitoring of child mental health remains a priority.

Titre : Using genetic designs to identify likely causal environmental contributions to psychopathology Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ruth SELLERS, Auteur ; Lucy RIGLIN, Auteur ; Gordon T. HAROLD, Auteur ; Anita THAPAR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1653-1665 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : environment genetics psychopathology strength-based approaches Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The multifactorial nature of psychopathology, whereby both genetic and environmental factors contribute risk, has long been established. In this paper, we provide an update on genetically informative designs that are utilized to disentangle genetic and environmental contributions to psychopathology. We provide a brief reminder of quantitative behavioral genetic research designs that have been used to identify potentially causal environmental processes, accounting for genetic contributions. We also provide an overview of recent molecular genetic approaches that utilize genome-wide association study data which are increasingly being applied to questions relevant to psychopathology research. While genetically informative designs typically have been applied to investigate the origins of psychopathology, we highlight how these approaches can also be used to elucidate potential causal environmental processes that contribute to developmental course and outcomes. We highlight the need to use genetically sensitive designs that align with intervention and prevention science efforts, by considering strengths-based environments to investigate how positive environments can mitigate risk and promote children’s strengths.
