Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Stephanie STADELMANN, Auteur ; Sonja PERREN, Auteur ; Agnes VON WYL, Auteur ; Kai VON KLITZING, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.996–1004 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Kindergarten-age parental-representations play-narratives family-environment psychopathology symptoms pro-social-behaviour Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The quality of the family relationships plays an important role in the development of children's psychopathology and in their socio-emotional development. This longitudinal study aims to investigate whether family relationships are related to children's symptoms/strengths at kindergarten, and whether family relationships are predictors of changes in children's symptoms/strengths between 5 and 6. Our main interest is to examine the role of children's parental representations. Methods: One hundred and fifty-three kindergarten children (67 girls, 86 boys) participated in this study. Children's parental representations were assessed using a story stem task (age 5). The family environment was assessed using parents’ ratings (age 5). A multi-informant approach (parent, teacher, child) was employed to assess children's symptoms/strengths at 5 and 6. Children were interviewed using a standardised puppet interview. Parents and teachers completed questionnaires. Results: Children's parental representations as well as the family environment were associated with children's symptoms/strengths at 5 and 6. When controlled for gender, children's representations were the only predictor of changes in symptoms/strengths between 5 and 6. A large number of negative parental representations at 5 predicted an increase in conduct problems. A large number of positive parental representations at 5 predicted an increase in pro-social behaviour. In terms of emotional symptoms and hyperactivity/inattention, symptoms at 5 were the only predictor for symptoms one year later. Conclusions: Our results suggest that kindergarten children's narrative representations may elaborate the processes underlying the expression of child disturbance and strengths, and underline the relevance of the play and narration of young children for diagnostics and therapy.

Endocrinological and subjective stress responses in children with depressive, anxiety, or externalizing disorders / Stephanie STADELMANN in Development and Psychopathology, 30-2 (May 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 30-2 (May 2018) . - p.605-622 Titre : Endocrinological and subjective stress responses in children with depressive, anxiety, or externalizing disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Stephanie STADELMANN, Auteur ; Sonia JAEGER, Auteur ; Tina MATUSCHEK, Auteur ; Yoon Ju BAE, Auteur ; Kai VON KLITZING, Auteur ; Annette Maria KLEIN, Auteur ; Mirko DÖHNERT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.605-622 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this study, we used a stress test to investigate endocrinological and subjective stress responses of 8- to 14-year-old children with internalizing or externalizing disorders and healthy controls. The sample (N = 170) consisted of clinical and community children. Parents were given a diagnostic interview to diagnose their children's psychiatric condition. We measured saliva cortisol and subjectively experienced arousal in children before and after the Trier Social Stress Test for Children. Children also rated their performance immediately after the stress test, and 1 hr later they rated their positive and negative thoughts about this stressful event. Children with internalizing or externalizing disorders exhibited a blunted cortisol response compared to healthy controls. Depressed children rated their test performance lower and reported more negative thoughts after the test in comparison to healthy controls, anxious children reported more arousal before and after the task, and children with externalizing disorders reported more positive thoughts. In regression analyses, cortisol and subjective stress responses were both predictive of psychiatric disorders. The study extends previous work on the relation between psychiatric disorders and children's stress responses to an experimentally induced stress task by including a broad range of psychiatric disorders and by integrating endocrinological and subjective stress responses.
