Behavioral and emotional symptoms of post-institutionalized children in middle childhood / Kristen L. WIIK in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 52-1 (January 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 52-1 (January 2011) . - p.56-63 Titre : Behavioral and emotional symptoms of post-institutionalized children in middle childhood Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kristen L. WIIK, Auteur ; Michelle M. LOMAN, Auteur ; Mark J. VAN RYZIN, Auteur ; Jeffrey M. ARMSTRONG, Auteur ; Marilyn J. ESSEX, Auteur ; Seth D. POLLAK, Auteur ; Megan R. GUNNAR, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.56-63 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : International adoption  institutional care  mental health Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background:  Experience in institutional/orphanage care has been linked to increased mental health problems. Research suggests that children adopted from institutions experience specific difficulties related to inattention/overactivity. Evidence of internalizing and conduct problems relative to non-adopted peers has been found in early childhood and early adolescence, but problems may not differ from other adopted children. This study clarifies the understanding of behavioral and emotional symptoms of post-institutionalized (PI) children during middle childhood. Methods:  Eight- to eleven-year-old PI children (n = 68) and two comparison groups, children internationally adopted from foster care (n = 74) and non-adopted children (n = 76), and their parents completed the MacArthur Health and Behavior Questionnaire related to attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), externalizing, and internalizing symptoms. Group means for symptom level and number of children with symptoms above clinical cutoffs were compared. Results:  PI children displayed an increased level of ADHD symptoms per parent report. PI child and parent report indicated a higher number of PI children above clinical ADHD cutoff. Both groups of internationally adopted (IA) children had higher levels of externalizing symptoms relative to non-adopted children, with parent report indicating higher numbers of IA children above the externalizing clinical threshold. Informants differed in their report of internalizing symptoms. Parents indicated that both IA groups displayed increased internalizing symptom levels and greater numbers above clinical threshold; however, children reported this to be true only for the PI group. Conclusions:  PI children differ from non-adopted peers across symptom domains in middle childhood. Whether these concerns were more broadly associated with international adoption rather than institutional care depended on symptom domain and informant. An understanding of this variability may be beneficial for treatment and intervention.

Risk-taking and sensation-seeking propensity in postinstitutionalized early adolescents / Michelle M. LOMAN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 55-10 (October 2014)

Although these problems have been well described, the related adolescent behaviors of risk-taking and sensation-seeking have not yet been explored in this population. This study examined risk-taking and sensation-seeking propensity, and associations with conduct problems and depressive symptoms, in early adolescents who were adopted as young children from institutional care. Methods Risk-taking and sensation-seeking propensities of 12- and 13-year-old postinstitutionalized (PI; n = 54) adolescents were compared with two groups: youth who were internationally adopted early from foster care (PFC; n = 44) and nonadopted youth (NA; n = 58). Participants were recruited to equally represent pre/early- and mid/late-pubertal stages within each group. Participants completed the youth version of the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (Lejuez et al., ) and the Sensation-Seeking Scale for Children (Russo et al., ). Parents completed clinical ratings of participants' conduct problems and depressive symptoms.

The effect of early deprivation on executive attention in middle childhood / Michelle M. LOMAN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 54-1 (January 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 54-1 (January 2013) . - 37-45 Titre : The effect of early deprivation on executive attention in middle childhood Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Michelle M. LOMAN, Auteur ; Anna E. JOHNSON, Auteur ; Alissa WESTERLUND, Auteur ; Seth D. POLLAK, Auteur ; Charles A. III NELSON, Auteur ; Megan R. GUNNAR, Auteur Article en page(s) : 37-45 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Attention  event-related potentials  executive function  international adoption  institutional care Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Children reared in deprived environments, such as institutions for the care of orphaned or abandoned children, are at increased risk for attention and behavior regulation difficulties. This study examined the neurobehavioral correlates of executive attention in post institutionalized (PI) children. Methods: The performance and event-related potentials (ERPs) of 10- and 11-year-old internationally adopted PI children on two executive attention tasks, Go/No-go and Flanker, were compared with two groups: children internationally adopted early from foster care (PF) and nonadopted children (NA). Results: Behavioral measures suggested problems with sustained attention, with PIs performing more poorly on Go trials and not on No-go trials of the Go/No-go and made more errors on both congruent and incongruent trials on the Flanker. ERPs suggested differences in inhibitory control and error monitoring, as PIs had smaller N2 amplitude on Go/No-go and smaller error-related negativity on Flanker. Conclusions: This pattern of results raises questions regarding the nature of attention difficulties for PI children. The behavioral errors are not specific to executive attention and instead likely reflect difficulties in overall sustained attention. The ERP results are consistent with neural activity related to deficits in inhibitory control (N2) and error monitoring (error-related negativity). Questions emerge regarding the similarity of attention regulatory difficulties in PIs to those experienced by non-PI children with ADHD.
