Titre : Autistic features in girls from a psychiatric sample are strongly associated with a low 2D:4D ratio Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Esther I. DE BRUIN, Auteur ; Robert F. FERDINAND, Auteur ; Fop VERHEIJ, Auteur ; Debora H. VERHAGEN, Auteur ; Pieter F.A. DE NIJS, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.511-521 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism diagnosis digit-ratio Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autistic features such as deficits in social interactions and communication have been associated with a low 2D:4D ratio in normal children.This study assessed this association in a large sample of children with a variety of psychiatric disorders (n = 35 girls and n = 147 boys). Autistic features were assessed with a highly valid and reliable measure (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule—Generic). Correlations between the 2D:4D ratio and autistic features were computed separately for boys and girls. Some small negative correlations (r = —0.17 and r = —0.19) were found in the right hand for boys; however, particularly in girls, large negative correlations (r = —0.51 to r = —0.64) were found in the left hand. A low 2D:4D ratio in girls was highly predictive of the presence of autistic features. Thus, a low ratio could possibly be used as a diagnostic predictor in clinical practice.

Titre : Change in psychopathology in referred children: the role of life events and perceived stress Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Agnes M. WILLEMEN, Auteur ; Hans M. KOOT, Auteur ; Robert F. FERDINAND, Auteur ; Carlo SCHUENGEL, Auteur ; Frits A. GOOSSENS, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.1175-1183 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Life-events stress externalising-disorder internalising-disorder longitudinal-studies Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: This study examined the relation between stress and change in emotional and behavioural problems in children and adolescents referred for mental health services.
Method: At three waves across four years, children and their parents (N = 310, mean age at the first wave = 11.26 years, SD = 3.18) reported emotional and behavioural problems, as well as stressful life events (parent report) and perceived stress (child report).
Results: Major life events before referral were associated with higher levels of parent-reported internalising and externalising problems at referral. Life events after referral were associated with a slower recovery from internalising problems. The associations between stressful life events and the course of parent- and self-reported problems were mediated by children's subjective feelings of stress.
Conclusion: Stressful life events appear to interfere with recovery from internalising problems in the years after referral through increasing the experience of stress in daily lifeEn ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2008.01925.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=633

Titre : Developmental trajectories of depressive symptoms from early childhood to late adolescence: gender differences and adult outcome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marielle C. DEKKER, Auteur ; Natasja D.J. VAN LANG, Auteur ; Frank C. VERHULST, Auteur ; Jan VAN DER ENDE, Auteur ; Robert F. FERDINAND, Auteur ; Ilja L. BONGERS, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.657–666 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Depressive-symptoms growth-mixture-model developmental-trajectories depression child-development sex-differences longitudinal-studies Child-Behavioral-Checklist-(CBCL)adolescence adult-outcome Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Limited information is available on gender differences and young-adult poor outcome in children and adolescents following distinct developmental trajectories of depressive symptoms.
Methods: Parent information on depressive symptoms of 4- to 18-year-olds from an ongoing Dutch community-based longitudinal multiple-cohort study (N = 2,076) was used to estimate trajectories from semi-parametric mixture models. The identified trajectories were used to predict depressive problems, general mental health problems, referral to mental health care, and educational attainment in young adulthood.
Results: In both genders six distinct developmental trajectories were identified. Gender differences existed not only in level, but also in shape and timing of onset of depressive problems. Only in girls was a chronic trajectory of early childhood-onset depression identified. In both boys and girls a group with increasing levels of depressive symptoms was identified that reached a high level around adolescence, although boys showed an earlier onset. Two decreasing trajectories were found in boys, one reaching normative levels of depressive symptoms around late childhood and one around mid-adolescence, while none was found for girls. Individuals who followed elevated trajectories during their whole childhood or starting at adolescence had significantly more depressive and other mental health problems in young adulthood compared to those who followed normative trajectories. Boys in these elevated trajectories showed lower educational attainment, while girls were more likely to have been referred to mental health care.
Conclusions: This study shows the value of estimating growth-mixture models separately for boys and girls. Girls with early childhood or adolescence-onset depressive problems and boys with depressive problems during childhood or starting in adolescence are especially at risk for poor outcome as young adults and should be considered candidates for intervention.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2007.01742.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=141

OLDEHINKEL, Auteur ; Johan ORMEL, Auteur ; Frank C. VERHULST, Auteur ; Catharina A. HARTMAN, Auteur ; Robert F. FERDINAND, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.523-539 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined the extent to which effortful control moderated the risk of internalizing or externalizing problems associated with high negative emotionality in a Dutch population sample of pre- and early adolescents (N = 1,922). Internalizing and externalizing problems were assessed with the Child Behavior Checklist, Youth Self-Report, and Teacher Checklist of Psychopathology. Temperament (effortful control, fearfulness, frustration) was assessed with the parent version of the Revised Early Adolescent Temperament Questionnaire. The effects of fearfulness and frustration appeared to be attenuated by high levels of effortful control. The associations differed between the two domains of mental health investigated: effortful control reduced the effect of fearfulness on internalizing problems and the effect of frustration on externalizing problems. The effects were stronger for externalizing problems and similar for preadolescent (age 11) and adolescent (age 13/14) outcomes.

Titre : Face and Emotion Recognition in MCDD Versus PDD-NOS Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Catherine M. HERBA, Auteur ; Monika ALTHAUS, Auteur ; Robert F. FERDINAND, Auteur ; Esther I. DE BRUIN, Auteur ; Fop VERHEIJ, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.706-718 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : MCDD Pervasive-developmental-disorders PDD-NOS Face-recognition Facial-expression-recognition Emotion-recognition Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Previous studies indicate that Multiple Complex Developmental Disorder (MCDD) children differ from PDD-NOS and autistic children on a symptom level and on psychophysiological functioning. Children with MCDD (n = 21) and PDD-NOS (n = 62) were compared on two facets of social-cognitive functioning: identification of neutral faces and facial expressions. Few significant group differences emerged. Children with PDD-NOS demonstrated a more attention-demanding strategy of face processing, and processed neutral faces more similarly to complex patterns whereas children with MCDD showed an advantage for face recognition compared to complex patterns. Results further suggested that any disadvantage in face recognition was related more to the autistic features of the PDD-NOS group rather than characteristics specific to MCDD. No significant group differences emerged for identifying facial expressions.
