Associations between trauma exposure and irritability within the family unit: a network approach / Grace COTTER in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 65-11 (November 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 65-11 (November 2024) . - p.1501-1512 Titre : Associations between trauma exposure and irritability within the family unit: a network approach Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Grace COTTER, Auteur ; Kristina MORREALE, Auteur ; Amanda VALDEGAS, Auteur ; Meghan FISH, Auteur ; Rebecca BEEBE, Auteur ; Damion GRASSO, Auteur ; Carla STOVER, Auteur ; Wan-Ling TSENG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1501-1512 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Irritability  trauma  network analysis  psychopathology  emotion regulation  PTSD  intergenerational transmission  psychological violence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Pediatric irritability is a pervasive psychiatric symptom, yet its etiology remains elusive. While trauma exposure may contribute to the development of irritability, empirical research is limited. This study examined the prevalence of irritability among trauma-exposed children, identified factors that differentiate trauma-exposed children with and without irritability, and employed a network analysis to uncover associations between irritability and trauma exposure in the family unit. Methods Sample included 676 children (56.3% male, mean age 9.67+3.7 years) and their parents referred by the Connecticut Department of Children and Families to Fathers for Change ? a psychotherapy intervention designed to reduce intimate partner violence (IPV) and child maltreatment. Child's trauma exposure, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, and irritability were assessed pre-intervention using self- and caregiver-report. Parents self-reported their childhood and adulthood trauma exposures, PTSD symptoms, irritability, psychopathology, and IPV. Results Across caregiver- and child-reports, 16% 17% of children exhibited irritability. Irritable children experienced greater trauma exposure, interpersonal violence, emotional abuse, and PTSD severity. They had caregivers, particularly mothers, with greater trauma histories, IPV, and psychopathology. Network analysis revealed 10 nodes directly correlated to child's irritability including child's PTSD severity, parental IPV (specifically psychological violence), and parental psychopathology. Conclusions Results provide initial empirical evidence that pediatric irritability is linked to trauma exposure, suggesting trauma histories be considered in the diagnosis and treatment of irritability. Interventions addressing caregiver trauma, IPV, and psychopathology may ameliorate pediatric irritability. Future studies could benefit from adopting network approaches with longitudinal or time series data to elucidate causality and points of intervention.

Attention bias and anxiety in young children exposed to family violence / Margaret J. BRIGGS-GOWAN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 56-11 (November 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 56-11 (November 2015) . - p.1194-1201 Titre : Attention bias and anxiety in young children exposed to family violence Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Margaret J.

Attention bias may moderate the relationship between violence exposure and anxiety in young children. Capitalizing on measurement advances, this study examines these relationships at a younger age than previously possible. Methods Young children (mean age 4.7, ±0.8) from a cross-sectional sample oversampled for violence exposure (N = 218) completed the dot-probe task to assess their attention biases. Observed fear/anxiety was characterized with a novel observational paradigm, the Anxiety Dimensional Observation Scale. Mother-reported symptoms were assessed with the Preschool Age Psychiatric Assessment and Trauma Symptom Checklist for Young Children. Violence exposure was characterized with dimensional scores reflecting probability of membership in two classes derived via latent class analysis from the Conflict Tactics Scales: Abuse and Harsh Parenting. Results Family violence predicted greater child anxiety and trauma symptoms. Attention bias moderated the relationship between violence and anxiety. Conclusions Attention bias toward threat may strengthen the effects of family violence on the development of anxiety, with potentially cascading effects across childhood. Such associations may be most readily detected when using observational measures of childhood anxiety.

Attention bias in the developmental unfolding of post-traumatic stress symptoms in young children at risk / Margaret J. BRIGGS-GOWAN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 57-9 (September 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 57-9 (September 2016) . - p.1083-1091 Titre : Attention bias in the developmental unfolding of post-traumatic stress symptoms in young children at risk Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Margaret J.

This study examines prospective relations among attention bias, trauma exposure, and anxiety and trauma symptoms in a sample previously reported to manifest cross-sectional associations between attention bias and observed anxiety at preschool age. Methods Young children [mean (MN) = 5.0, ±0.7 years, n = 208] from a community-based sample completed the dot-probe task to assess their attention biases in response to angry faces. At baseline (T1) and at follow-up approximately 9 months later (T2), anxiety and trauma exposure (i.e. violent and noninterpersonal events) and symptoms were assessed by maternal report. Results Neither attention bias nor baseline or recent trauma exposure predicted later anxiety. In contrast, attention bias toward threat and recent trauma exposure significantly predicted later trauma symptoms. There was evidence of symptom specificity such that attention bias toward threat significantly predicted hyperarousal and dissociation, but not avoidance or re-experiencing symptoms. Finally, moderation analyses indicated that the relationship between attention bias and trauma symptoms may differ according to children's experiences of probable abuse. Conclusions Attention profiles and trauma exposure may increase the risk that young children will develop trauma symptoms. Individual differences in these attentional patterns and children's exposure history may impact outcomes among high-risk children with potential implications for intervention.

Three-variable systems: An integrative moderation and mediation framework for developmental psychopathology / Brandon L. GOLDSTEIN in Development and Psychopathology, 35-1 (February 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 35-1 (February 2023) . - p.12-23 Titre : Three-variable systems: An integrative moderation and mediation framework for developmental psychopathology Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Brandon L.

KLEIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.12-23 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : developmental psychopathology  longitudinal research  mediation  moderation  risk factors Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this article, we consider an often overlooked model that combines mediation and moderation to explain how a third variable can relate to a risk factor-psychopathology relationship. We refer to it as moderation and mediation in a three-variable system. We describe how this model is relevant to studying vulnerability factors and how it may advance developmental psychopathology research. To illustrate the value of this approach, we provide several examples where this model may be applicable, such as the relationships among parental externalizing pathology, harsh parenting, and offspring psychopathology as well as between neuroticism, stressful life events, and depression. We discuss possible reasons why this model has not gained traction and attempt to clarify and dispel those concerns. We provide guidance and recommendations for when to consider this model for a given data set and point toward existing resources for testing this model that have been developed by statisticians and other methodologists. Lastly, we describe important caveats, limitations, and considerations for making this approach most useful for developmental research. Overall, our goal in presenting this information to developmental psychopathology researchers is to encourage testing moderation and mediation in a three-variable system with the aim of advancing analytic strategies for studying vulnerability factors.
