Engaging the family, recognising and focusing on their beliefs and concerns, and paediatric/psychiatric liaison are usually required. Our knowledge on the management of children with somatisation is largely based on clinical reports but a number of open trials and methodologically increasingly stronger studies show that somatisation can respond to family treatments involving cognitive-behavioural techniques as well as to sensitive, psychologically sound advice by paediatricians. Antidepressants should be considered when there are comorbid mood disorders.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Scholastic Achievement: A Model of Dual Developmental Pathways / Mark D. RAPPORT in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

An important component of this model suggests that attention deficit behaviors are related to later scholastic underachievement, whereas conduct problems are unrelated to scholastic underachievement except by their common correlation with attention deficit and intelligence. The present study replicated the general model using a cross-sectional sample of 325 children, and examined whether hypothesized dual pathways (behavioral and cognitive) better account for the relationship between attention deficit, intelligence, and later scholastic achievement. Results of the structural equation modeling analysis were consistent with the hypothesized dual pathway model and suggest that school behavior and select cognitive abilities serve as important mediators between attention deficit, intelligence, and later scholastic achievement. Implications of these results for understanding the developmental trajectory of children with attention deficit and general theoretical models of ADHD are discussed.

Parents Anticipating Misbehaviour: An Observational Study of Strategies Parents Use to Prevent Conflict with Behaviour Problem Children / Frances E. M. GARDNER in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

This home observational study examined strategies used by 52 mothers to prevent conflict with 3-year-olds. It was predicted that mothers of children with behaviour problems would use fewer “positive” strategies to resolve conflict, and would use reactive rather than pre-emptive strategies. Results showed frequency of positive strategies did not differ between the groups. Mothers of children with behaviour problems were less likely to use pre-emptive, and more likely to use reactive, strategies. Further analysis showed child conduct problems, rather than other characteristics, best discriminated pre-emptive from reactive strategy users. Follow-up of a subsample found that reactive strategies at age 3 predicted age 5 behaviour problems, even after controlling for age 3 behaviour problems.

Executive Functions and Physical Aggression after Controlling for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, General Memory, and IQ / Jean R. SEGUIN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 40-8 (November 1999) . - p.1197-1208 Titre : Executive Functions and Physical Aggression after Controlling for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, General Memory, and IQ Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jean R.

Boys received a cognitive-neuropsychological test battery over the ages of 13, 14, and 15 years. Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC 2.25) data were collected from the boys and one parent between ages 14 and 16, and an IQ estimate was obtained at age 15. Three groups, differing in stability and level of physical aggression since kindergarten, were formed: Stable Aggressive, Unstable Aggressive, and Nonaggressive. Composite scores of validated executive function tests of working memory representing subjective ordering and conditional association learning were formed. A MANCOVA (N= 149) using ADHD status, teacher-rated negative emotionality, general memory abilities, and IQ as covariates was performed on the two composite scores. ADHD and teacher-rated emotionality did not provide significant adjustment to the dependent variables. Number of ADHD symptoms was negatively associated only with general memory and IQ. General memory contributed significantly to adjusting for conditional association test scores. Group differences indicated lower conditional association scores for Unstable Aggressive boys relative to the other groups. Both IQ and general memory abilities interacted with subjective ordering within the groups. Specifically, Stable Aggressive boys performed poorly on this measure and did not benefit from increases in IQ whereas Nonaggressive boys performed best and were not disadvantaged by lower general memory abilities. This suggests a relationship exists between aspects of working memory and a history of physical aggression regardless of ADHD and IQ.

Effects of Poverty on Academic Failure and Delinquency in Boys: A Change and Process Model Approach / Linda PAGANI in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

We then investigated whether the relation between family economic hardship and antisocial behaviour is direct or indirect by considering the value of parenting practices and academic failure as process variables in the model. Data included official records, and parent, teacher, and self-reports. The temporal intensity of poverty was classified into five categories: never-poor; always-poor; poor-earlier ; poor-later ; and transitory-poverty. Family configuration status was classified by both temporal characteristics and number of marital transitions: intact-family ; short-term-single; long-term-single; short-term-remarried; long-term-remarried; and multiple-marital-transitions. Results revealed that when maternal education and early childhood behaviour were controlled, poverty had an effect on both academic failure and extreme delinquency. This effect was independent of family configuration status. Although they both significantly predicted extreme delinquency on their own, academic failure and parental supervision did not mediate the relationship between poverty and delinquency. Divorce increased the risk of theft and fighting at age 16, regardless of financial hardship. Parental supervision only helped explain the effects of divorce on boys' fighting.

Past research has suggested that adopted children are over-represented in mental health settings. In addition, some studies have suggested that adopted and nonadopted children differ on measures of social, emotional, behavioral, and cognitive functioning. The current study used data from a large, representative sample in the United States to examine whether adopted children are more likely to have had mental health contacts or emotional or behavioral problems than nonadopted children. Age of placement in the adoptive home was examined as a variable contributing to the adjustment of adopted children. Results suggest that adopted and foster children are more likely to have mental health contacts than nonadopted children. Results are mixed regarding whether adopted and foster children have more behavior problems than nonadopted children. However, significant differences between adopted, foster, and nonadopted children disappeared when a small group of influential cases were removed. This suggests that the differences seen between the groups reflect a small number of cases and are not representative of the groups of adoptees and foster children as a whole. The vast majority of adopted children showed patterns of behavior problems similar to those of nonadopted children. These results are discussed in relation to the past literature and areas for future research.

At that time, they were compared to a group of refugee children living in a nearby camp with one or both parents. The orphans exhibited significantly more behavioral symptoms than the refugee children, but performed the cognitive tests at a more advanced level. Five years later, the orphans were re-examined; and they were compared to unaccompanied 9–12-year-children living in one of two residential settings that differed qualitatively in their social climate, principles of child care, and patterns of staff-child interactions. Although the severity of their behavioral symptoms had diminished, the orphans still exhibited many symptoms of emotional distress. On the other hand, they performed the cognitive measures as well as, or better than, unaccompanied children who had been protected from the terrors of war. The cross-sectional comparisons indicated that a residential setting that respects the individuality of children and promotes their close personal ties with at least one staff member can ameliorate many of the more serious psychological sequelae of having lost both parents and being exposed to the physical dangers of the war. The implications for war orphans in other Third World countries are discussed.

Mental Health in International Adoptees as Teenagers and Young Adults. An Epidemiological Study / Marianne CEDERBLAD in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

Most often they are transracially adopted and have a different appearance from their new parents—“visible ” adoptions. This study was made to explore the mental health of a teenager/young adult group that arrived with their families in the southernmost county of Sweden between 1970 and 1977. They were placed through the largest Swedish adoption agency at that time. One hundred and forty-seven families and their 211 adopted children, who were 13 years of age or older at the time of the investigation, were interviewed in their homes. CBCL, SCL-90, a self-esteem questionnaire, and two family relations inventories were also completed. Compared to nonadopted Swedish young persons of the same ages, who had been investigated with the same inventories in earlier epidemiological studies, the adoptees had as good mental health. The adoptees also reported good self-esteem. The pre-adoption conditions were more important than the age of arrival in itself for the risk of later maladaptation. Family relations, various aspects of identity, and peer relations explained much of the variance of mental health and self-esteem. Those who were most engaged in questions about their identity and felt mostly non-Swedish had more behaviour problems. The association, however, between the factor “ Identity ” and the mental health variables approached zero for the older subjects (18–27 years of age). The majority (about 90%) of the adoptees felt mostly Swedish. Seventy per cent didn't feel any connection to their country of origin.

Compared to nonadopted Swedish young persons of the same ages, who had been investigated with the same inventories in earlier epidemiological studies, the adoptees had as good mental health. The adoptees also reported good self-esteem. The pre-adoption conditions were more important than the age of arrival in itself for the risk of later maladaptation. Family relations, various aspects of identity, and peer relations explained much of the variance of mental health and self-esteem. Those who were most engaged in questions about their identity and felt mostly non-Swedish had more behaviour problems. The association, however, between the factor “ Identity ” and the mental health variables approached zero for the older subjects (18–27 years of age). The majority (about 90%) of the adoptees felt mostly Swedish. Seventy per cent didn't feel any connection to their country of origin.

Parents' Judgements About Young Children's Problems: Why Mothers and Fathers Might Disagree Yet Still Predict Later Outcomes / Dale F. HAY in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

As in other samples, there was moderate convergence in mothers' and fathers' total problem scores, but also signs that they were reporting different sorts of problems linked to different influences. The father's rating was primarily associated with the child's cognitive ability. The mother's rating was primarily affected by her own mental state and view of her marriage. The father's but not the mother's rating provided unique information that predicted teachers' reports of the children's problems 7 years later. In general, parents' ratings of preschool children's problems reflect particular informants' perspectives on family life.

The Socioemotional Development of 5-year-old Children of Postnatally Depressed Mothers / Lynne MURRAY in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 40-8 (November 1999) . - p.1259-1271 Titre : The Socioemotional Development of 5-year-old Children of Postnatally Depressed Mothers Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lynne MURRAY, Auteur ; Dana SINCLAIR, Auteur ; Peter J. COOPER, Auteur ; Pierre DUCOURNAU, Auteur ; Patricia TURNER, Auteur ; Alan STEIN, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : p.1259-1271 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Attachment  behaviour problems  longitudinal studies  maternal depression  parent-child interaction  school Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A community sample of depressed and well mothers, recruited at 2 months postpartum and assessed through to 18 months, was followed up at 5 years. The quality of mother-child interactions was assessed, as was the children's behavioural and social adjustment, using maternal reports and observations of child behaviour during free play at school. Several aspects of child outcome were found to be associated with postnatal depression, even when taking account of current adverse circumstances (maternal depression and parental conflict). These included the child's behaviour with the mother, the presence of behavioural disturbance at home, and the content and social patterning of play at school. These associations with postnatal depression were independent of the child's gender. The child's relationship with the mother appeared to be mediated by the quality of infant attachment at 18 months. The mother's behaviour with her child was more affected by current difficulties, in particular by conflict with the child's father. Together these findings suggest that, while maternal behaviour varies with changing circumstances, exposure to maternal depression in the early postpartum months may have an enduring influence on child psychological adjustment.

Exploring the Covariation between Anxiety and Depression Symptoms: A Genetic Analysis of the Effects of Age and Sex / Thalia C. ELEY in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 40-8 (November 1999) . - p.1273-1282 Titre : Exploring the Covariation between Anxiety and Depression Symptoms: A Genetic Analysis of the Effects of Age and Sex Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Thalia C. ELEY, Auteur ; Jim STEVENSON, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : p.1273-1282 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Anxiety  adolescence  behavioural genetics  comorbidity  depression  gender Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Self-reported anxiety and depression symptoms in children and adolescents have been shown to be heritable, and are also highly correlated. Furthermore, there have been indications in the literature of sex and age differences in the aetiologies of these two types of symptoms. This study set out to ascertain to what extent the genetic and environmental factors that influence anxiety symptoms also influence depression symptoms, and whether these are the same in children and adolescents, and males and females. Four hundred and ninety pairs of twins aged 8 to 16 years completed the Children's Depression Inventory and the Trait scale of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children. There were significant effects of age and sex on the variance in and covariance between these two types of symptom. Bivariate genetic analyses of the measures indicated that the genetic influences on anxiety and depression were shared for all four groups, a finding that has been consistently demonstrated for adults.

Are Individuals with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome Susceptible to Visual Illusions ? / Danielle ROPAR in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 40-8 (November 1999)

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 40-8 (November 1999) . - p.1283-1293 Titre : Are Individuals with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome Susceptible to Visual Illusions ? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Danielle ROPAR, Auteur ; Peter MITCHELL, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : p.1283-1293 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Asperger's syndrome  weak central coherence  illusions Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A recent finding that individuals with autism are not susceptible to illusions has been explained by Happé (1996) as a sign of “weak central coherence” at lower levels of processing. We investigated the phenomenon with a more sophisticated measure. In Experiment 1, individuals with autism, Asperger's syndrome, moderate learning difficulties, and typical development adjusted certain comparison lines and circles to make them appear to be the same size in four visual illusions. With a minor exception, the participants with autism and Asperger's syndrome evinced a systematic bias in their judgements in the illusion condition. The extent of this was no different from control participants. In a second experiment, a similar finding was obtained in a task where participants made verbal judgements about the stimuli. The results suggest that lower-level coherence in visual processing in autism is intact.
