Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 63-11 (November 2022) . - p.1332-1343 Titre : Longitudinal trajectories of mental health and loneliness for Australian adolescents with-or-without neurodevelopmental disorders: the impact of COVID-19 school lockdowns Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Stephen HOUGHTON, Auteur ; Michael KYRON, Auteur ; David LAWRENCE, Auteur ; Simon Charles HUNTER, Auteur ; John HATTIE, Auteur ; Annemaree CARROLL, Auteur ; Corinne ZADOW, Auteur ; Wai CHEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1332-1343 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Humans  Child, Preschool  Mental Health  Loneliness/psychology  covid-19  Longitudinal Studies  SARS-CoV-2  Australia/epidemiology  Communicable Disease Control  Schools  Neurodevelopmental Disorders  Coronavirus  adolescents  loneliness  longitudinal  neurodevelopmental disorders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: The impact of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic school lockdowns on the mental health problems and feelings of loneliness of adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) is hypothesized to be greater than that of their non-NDD peers. This two and a half year longitudinal study compared changes in the mental health and loneliness of Western Australian adolescents pre-COVID-19 (November 2018 and April 2019), immediately prior to COVID-19 school lockdowns (March 2020), and post schools reopening (July/August 2020). METHODS: An age-and-gender matched sample of 476 adolescents with-or-without NDDs completed online assessments for mental health and loneliness. RESULTS: Adolescents with NDDs reported elevated levels of adverse mental health across all four waves of data collection. These young people experienced little change in mental health problems and feelings of loneliness over time, and any increase during school lockdowns returned to, or fell below pre-COVID-19 levels once schools reopened. In comparison, adolescents without NDDs experienced significant increases from a low baseline in depression symptoms, externalizing symptoms, feelings of isolation, and having a positive attitude to being alone, and evidenced a significant decline in positive mental wellbeing. Quality of friendships were unaffected by COVID-19 school lockdowns for all adolescents regardless of NDD status. Of the adolescents with NDDs, those with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder reported a significant increase in positive mental wellbeing following school lockdowns. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents with NDDs emerged relatively unscathed from COVID-19 school lockdowns and the short term impacts associated with these were not maintained over time. These findings should be considered in the context of this study's geographical location and the unpredictability of school lockdowns. Learning to live with school lockdowns into the future may be a critical element for further investigation in the context of interventions.

Self-directed speech and self-regulation in childhood neurodevelopmental disorders: Current findings and future directions / Aisling MULVIHILL in Development and Psychopathology, 32-1 (February 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 32-1 (February 2020) . - p.205-217 Titre : Self-directed speech and self-regulation in childhood neurodevelopmental disorders: Current findings and future directions Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Aisling MULVIHILL, Auteur ; Annemaree CARROLL, Auteur ; Paul E. DUX, Auteur ; Natasha MATTHEWS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.205-217 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adhd  autism spectrum disorder  language disorder  private speech  self-directed speech Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Self-directed speech is considered an important developmental achievement as a self-regulatory mediator of thinking and behavior. Atypical self-directed speech is often implicated in the self-regulatory challenges characteristic of children with neurodevelopmental disorders. A growing body of evidence provides snapshots across age-levels and diagnoses, often presenting conflicting results. This systematic review is undertaken to impose clarity on the nature, extent, and self-regulatory implications of self-directed speech interruption in children with developmental language disorder (DLD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).A rigorous search process of relevant databases (i.e., PsychInfo, PubMed, CINAHL, ERIC) uncovered 19 relevant peer-reviewed articles that investigate self-directed speech in children with neurodevelopmental disorders. Consistent across the research, children with DLD, ASD, and ADHD present with differential development and use of self-directed speech.In its synthesis of findings, this systematic review clearly explicates the differential ontogenesis of self-directed speech in neurodevelopmental disorders and interprets the self-regulatory implications for children with DLD, ASD, and ADHD. Furthermore, the review spotlights important future research directions to better understand the mechanistic relationship between self-directed speech and self-regulation.
