Mental health among bereaved youth in the ALSPAC birth cohort: Consideration of early sociodemographic precursors, cognitive ability, and type of loss / Christy A. DENCKLA in Development and Psychopathology, 36-3 (August 2024)

Ecosocial theory is employed to conceptualize bereavement in the context of sociodemographic factors.Method:This longitudinal study used data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. Of the 15,454 pregnancies enrolled, 5050 youth were still enrolled at age 16.5 and completed self-report questionnaires on life events and emotional/behavioral symptoms.Results:Sociodemographic precursors associated with parent, sibling, or close friend bereavement included maternal smoking, parental education levels, and financial difficulties. The significant yet small main effect of higher cognitive ability, assessed at age 8, on reduced emotional/behavioral symptoms at age 16.5 (? = ?0.01, SE = 0.00, p < 0.001) did not interact with bereavement. Bereavement of a parent, sibling, or close friend was associated with a 0.19 point higher emotional/behavioral symptom log score compared to non-bereaved youth (95% CI: 0.10-0.28), across emotional, conduct, and hyperactivity subscales.Conclusions:Descriptive findings suggest sociodemographic precursors are associated with bereavement. While there was an association between the bereavement of a parent, sibling, or close friend and elevated emotional/behavioral symptoms, cognitive ability did not moderate that effect.

Resilience in development: Neighborhood context, experiences of discrimination, and children?s mental health / Natalie SLOPEN ; Joseph WILSON in Development and Psychopathology, 35-5 (December 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 35-5 (December 2023) . - p.2551-2559 Titre : Resilience in development: Neighborhood context, experiences of discrimination, and children?s mental health Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Natalie SLOPEN, Auteur ; Joseph WILSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2551-2559 Mots-clés : children  discrimination  internalizing/externalizing problems  neighborhood  resilience Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : An understanding of child psychopathology and resilience requires attention to the nested and interconnected systems and contexts that shape children?s experiences and health outcomes. In this study, we draw on data from the National Survey of Children?s Health, 2016 to 2021 (n = 182,375 children, ages 3? to 17 years) to examine associations between community social capital and neighborhood resources and children?s internalizing and externalizing problems, and whether these associations were moderated by experiences of racial discrimination. Study outcomes were caregiver-report of current internalizing and externalizing problems. Using logistic regression models adjusted for sociodemographic characteristics of the child and household, higher levels of community social capital were associated with a lower risk of children?s depression, anxiety, and behaviors. Notably, we observed similar associations between neighborhood resources and child mental health for depression only. In models stratified by the child?s experience of racial/ethnic discrimination, the protective benefits of community social capital were specific to those children who did not experience racial discrimination. Our results illustrate heterogeneous associations between community social capital and children?s mental health that differ based on interpersonal experiences of racial/ethnic discrimination, illustrating the importance of a multilevel framework to promote child wellbeing.

Resilience-promoting policies and contexts for children of color in the United States: Existing research and future priorities / Natalie SLOPEN in Development and Psychopathology, 33-2 (May 2021)

In this article, we argue for a broad view of resilience, in both research and policy, that views resilience not just as a property of individuals but also as a characteristic of social contexts and policies. Accordingly, we describe the empirical evidence for policies and contexts as factors that can improve health among children and families that are deprived of equal opportunities and resources due to structural racism. We discuss the evidence and opportunities for policies and interventions across a variety of societal systems, including programs to promote economic and food security, early education, health care, and the neighborhood and community context. Based on this evidence and other research on racism and resilience, we conclude by outlining some directions for future research.

The prospective association between stressful life events and inflammation among adolescents with a history of early institutional rearing / Alva TANG in Development and Psychopathology, 32-5 (December 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 32-5 (December 2020) . - p.1715-1724 Titre : The prospective association between stressful life events and inflammation among adolescents with a history of early institutional rearing Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Alva TANG, Auteur ; Mark WADE, Auteur ; Nathan A.

ZEANAH, Auteur ; Natalie SLOPEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1715-1724 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Child  *Child, Institutionalized  Child, Preschool  *Foster Home Care  Humans  Infant  Inflammation  Prospective Studies  Romania  *adolescence  *inflammation  *neglect  *stress sensitization  *stressful life events Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Early adversity has been shown to sensitize individuals to the effects of later stress and enhance risk of psychopathology. Using a longitudinal randomized trial of foster care as an alternative to institutional care, we extend the stress sensitization hypothesis to examine whether early institutional rearing sensitizes individuals to stressful events in adolescence engendering chronic low-grade inflammation. At baseline, institutionalized children in Romania (ages 6-31 months) were randomly assigned to foster care or to remain in usual care within institutions. A group of never-institutionalized children was recruited as an in-country comparison sample. At ages 12 and 16, participants reported stressful events. At age 16, Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were derived from blood spots. Among children assigned to care as usual, more stressful events at age 12, but not age 16, were associated with higher IL-6. In the same group, stressful events at age 16 were associated with higher CRP, though these effects attenuated after adjusting for covariates. These associations were not observed in the foster care or never-institutionalized groups. The findings suggest that heightened inflammation following stress exposure is one pathway through which early neglect could compromise physical health. In contrast, early family care might buffer against these risks.
