Psychometric evaluation of the Italian version of the adverse childhood experiences international questionnaire (ACE-IQ) in more than a thousand of community adults
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic events linked to health issues and public health costs. The World Health Organization (WHO)’s ACE International Questionnaire – International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) is a widely used tool to screen ACEs, though its factorial structure remains debated. This study addresses gaps in ACE-IQ research being the first examining factor structures invariance across gender, age, and educational …

Social media misuse explained by emotion dysregulation and self-concept
Studies suggested that emotion dysregulation and identity processes are involved in social media (SM) misuse, even if their proximal role has not been investigated. Previous studies rarely discriminated between specific activities or between types of SM. We recruited 50 young adults and implemented a momentary ecological assessment measurement. Four times by day, during seven days, we measured SM use, frequency of several activities on SM, emotio…

Can alexithymia be assessed through an interview in adolescents? The Toronto Structured Interview for Alexithymia
Alexithymia is connected to adolescents' psychopathology, but the current methods of assessment present limitations. The Toronto Structured Interview for Alexithymia (TSIA) was developed to overcome the limits of the main used self-rating scale in adults, but no studies investigated its feasibility with adolescents. This study involved 95 community adolescents aged 12-19 years. Adolescents were assessed with the TSIA, the 20-item Toronto Alexithy…
Attachment Stability and Longitudinal Prediction of Psychotic-like Symptoms in Community Adolescents over Four Months of Covid-19 Pandemic
Background: The Friends and Family Interview (FFI) is assumed to be a valid method to study attachment stability and attachment-related psychopathological processes in adolescence, but no studies have yet tested the test–retest reliability of this interview or the longitudinal association of attachment patterns in response to the FFI from adolescents with symptoms such as psychotic-like experiences (e.g., hallucinations, bizarre behavior, dissoci…
How are the youth? A brief‐longitudinal study on symptoms, alexithymia and expressive suppression among Italian adolescents during Covid‐19 pandemic
Studies documented the negative consequences on adolescents' mental health of the stay‐at‐home measures adopted in reaction to the COVID‐19 outbreak. However, few contributions focused on the psychopathological trajectories after the end of these stressful measures or investigated the moderating role of this context in the relationship linking psychological symptoms with emotion regulation. This brief longitudinal study was performed with two mea…
Peer Power! Secure Peer Attachment Mediates the Effect of Parental Attachment on Depressive Withdrawal of Teenagers
Adolescents' depressive social withdrawal is a relevant concern for mental health professionals, and it is widespread among community teenagers in form of subclinical symptoms. Different studies suggest that insecure attachment representations increase the adolescents' likelihood to show symptoms of withdrawal (e.g., loneliness). This study explored the effect of the general attachment internal working model (IWM) and the independent and cumulati…
What's Happened to Italian Adolescents During the Covid-19 Pandemic? A Preliminary Study on Symptoms, Problematic Social Media Usage, and Attachment
Italian adolescents were confined at home for 3 months due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which exposed them to feelings of fear, uncertainty, and loneliness that may have increased their vulnerability to emotional-behavioral symptoms (e.g., anxiety) and binge-eating attitudes. Potential risk factors for these psychopathological symptoms are problematic social media usage and attachment insecurity. Therefore, this study aimed: (1) to assess emotional-…
