Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-1 (February 1984) . - p.20-24 Titre : Does illness foster dependency? A study of epileptic and diabetic children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : P. HOARE, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.20-24 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The development of inappropriate dependency was investigated among two comparable groups of children, one with newly diagnosed epilepsy or diabetes, the other with chronic epilepsy or diabetes. The two groups of epileptic children were significantly more dependent than the two diabetic groups, and than children in the general population. Psychiatric disturbance was significantly more common among the epileptic children, and possibly is a factor in their inappropriate dependency. Specific advice and counselling for the parents is likely to help promote the children's sense of self-esteem and independence.

Psychiatric disturbance in the families of epileptic children / P. HOARE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-1 (February 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-1 (February 1984) . - p.14-19 Titre : Psychiatric disturbance in the families of epileptic children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : P. HOARE, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.14-19 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The rates of psychiatric disturbance among the parents and school-age siblings of two groups of epileptic children, one newly diagnosed and one with chronic epilepsy, were compared with those of adults and children in the general population. Siblings of children in the newly diagnosed group were no more disturbed than children in the general population, whereas those of children with chronic epilepsy were. The parents of both groups were no more disturbed than adults in the general population, but there was an association between disturbance in the chronically epileptic children and increased psychiatric morbidity among their mothers. Professionals involved in the care of epileptic children should be aware of the effects on the psychological health of other members of the family, and of ways of helping the child and the family to cope with the illness.

The development of psychiatric disorder among schoolchildren with epilepsy / P. HOARE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-1 (February 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-1 (February 1984) . - p.3-13 Titre : The development of psychiatric disorder among schoolchildren with epilepsy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : P. HOARE, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.3-13 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Two groups of epileptic children, one newly diagnosed and one with chronic epilepsy, were compared with two comparable groups of diabetic children and with children in the general population in order to investigate the development of psychiatric disorder. The results confirm previous findings that children with chronic epilepsy are significantly more disturbed than children with chronic physical illness not involving the central nervous system, and than children in the general population. Children with newly diagnosed epilepsy were also significantly more disturbed than those with newly diagnosed diabetes, and than children in the general population. The rate of psychiatric disturbance was similar in the two groups of epileptic children. In both groups of epileptic children, those with focal EEG abnormalities and/or complex partial seizures were particularly vulnerable to psychiatric disturbance.
