Differentiating minimal brain dysfunction and temperament / William B. CAREY in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 21-6 (December 1979)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 21-6 (December 1979) . - p.765-772 Titre : Differentiating minimal brain dysfunction and temperament Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : William B. CAREY, Auteur ; Sean C. MCDEVITT, Auteur ; David H. BARKER, Auteur Année de publication : 1979 Article en page(s) : p.765-772 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : After referral to a pediatric neurologist for problems in behavior and learning, 61 children aged from three to seven years were assigned to one of four diagnostic groups: (1) minimal brain dysfunction (MBD); (2) hyperactivity; (3) learning disability; and (4) other criteria. Their temperament profiles were determined by the Behavioral Style Questionnaire. The disproportionately large number of children with more difficult temperament diagnoses in the referred population indicates that teachers and physicians may have mininterpreted a less adaptive behavioral style as evidence of neurological dysfunction. Those diagnosed clinically as having MBD were less adaptable, less persistent, more active and more negative than the control population. This suggests that MBD overlaps with difficult temperament. Children in the other three groups were temperamentally similar to the MBD group, which raises doubt about the advisability of diagnosing MBD on the basis of behavior alone. A comprehensive neurobehavioral profile is necessary to separate clearly the various factors contributing to problems in school performance.

Editorial Perspective: Adolescents' fragile sleep-shining light on a time of risk to mental health / Mary A. CARSKADON in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 61-10 (October 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 61-10 (October 2020) . - p.1058-1060 Titre : Editorial Perspective: Adolescents' fragile sleep-shining light on a time of risk to mental health Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mary A. CARSKADON, Auteur ; David H. BARKER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1058-1060 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : As many other facets of life-biological, behavioral, psychological, cognitive, and social-undergo change during adolescence, so too does sleep. The context of sleep behavior is modified by alterations to underlying bioregulatory processes that challenge sleep's timing, regularity, and quantity. The buildup of sleep pressure during the day gets slower, opening the door for youth to stay awake later; however, the amount of sleep required does not diminish. Further, the circadian timing system delays, again providing the biological impetus for later sleep. When these changes meet societal demands for early wake, most teens cannot find a way to get enough sleep at a consistent time from night to night. Insufficient and irregular sleep provides a fragile foundation to support mental health.

Predicting behavior problems in deaf and hearing children: The influences of language, attention, and parent–child communication / David H. BARKER in Development and Psychopathology, 21-2 (May 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 21-2 (May 2009) . - p.373-392 Titre : Predicting behavior problems in deaf and hearing children: The influences of language, attention, and parent–child communication Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : David H. BARKER, Auteur ; Alexandra L. QUITTNER, Auteur ; Nancy E. FINK, Auteur ; Laurie S. EISENBERG, Auteur ; Emily A. TOBEY, Auteur ; John K. NIPARKO, Auteur ; CDACI INVESTIGATIVE TEAM, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.373-392 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The development of language and communication may play an important role in the emergence of behavioral problems in young children, but they are rarely included in predictive models of behavioral development. In this study, cross-sectional relationships between language, attention, and behavior problems were examined using parent report, videotaped observations, and performance measures in a sample of 116 severely and profoundly deaf and 69 normally hearing children ages 1.5 to 5 years. Secondary analyses were performed on data collected as part of the Childhood Development After Cochlear Implantation Study, funded by the National Institutes of Health. Hearing-impaired children showed more language, attention, and behavioral difficulties, and spent less time communicating with their parents than normally hearing children. Structural equation modeling indicated there were significant relationships between language, attention, and child behavior problems. Language was associated with behavior problems both directly and indirectly through effects on attention. Amount of parent–child communication was not related to behavior problems.
