The Legacy of Adversity? The Impact of Caregivers’ Childhood Experiences and Children’s Mental Health on Family Dynamics and Perceived Burden During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Background: This cross-sectional observational study examined the relationship between caregivers' adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), their perceived COVID-19-related burden, child psychopathology, and changes in family relationships during the pandemic. Methods: The final sample included 285 children ( M = 10.19, SD = 3.36) from clinical settings and their caregivers. Caregivers reported their own ACEs and their children's psychopathology. Pe…
Parental Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) in an Early Childhood Mental Health Outpatient Clinic in Germany
Parental adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to negative outcomes in children, including emotional and behavioral problems, developmental delays, and higher risk for psychopathology. Most research focuses on school-aged children or community samples, with few studies examining preschool-aged children in child psychiatric care. Understanding parental ACEs in this population is crucial, as early childhood is a sensitive developmental pe…
Mental health and quality of life in children and adolescents during the Covid-19 pandemic
Familial context influences media usage in 0- to 4-year old children
Background: The use of digital media (e.g., smartphones, tablets, etc.) and the Internet have become omnipresent for every age group and are part of children's and parents' everyday life. Focusing on young children, the availability of media devices, their use as well as associated problems (e.g., in social, emotional and motor development) have increased in recent years. Of particular interest for prevention of these problems in early childhood …
Parents of Child Psychiatric Patients Report More Adverse Childhood Experiences Compared with Community Samples
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have already been associated, in some studies, with various diverse psychosocial abnormalities in later life. However, it is still unclear whether ACEs reported by biological parents differ from ACE scores in community samples. Background/Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the extent to which parents of a patient sample differ from a community sample in terms of reporting childhood experienc…
Maternal Postnatal Psychopathology Predicts Identity Diffusion in Young Adult Offspring
The present data suggest a relevant influence of maternal psychopathological symptoms on their children's identity development in terms of functioning that has not yet been empirically shown in a longitudinal study. This finding highlights the importance of including further factors (particularly on the part of the child) in longitudinal studies and of investigating this clinically highly relevant relationship in greater depth
Motivations for Adolescent Covid-19 Vaccination
Given the crucial role of vaccination in halting the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative to understand the factors that motivate adolescents to get vaccinated. We surveyed adolescents and their accompanying guardians scheduled to receive a COVID-19 vaccination (Comirnaty) in an urban region in Germany in mid-2021 regarding their motivation for getting vaccinated and collected data on their sociodemographic characteristics, medical history, vaccin…
Assessment and Diagnostic Classification Using DC
Mental health problems in early childhood are common, but there is a lack of psychiatric research on this age group. DC:0-5 is a multiaxial classification system for mental disorders in early childhood, providing a framework for standardizing clinical practice and research. However, research on the validity of DC:0-5 is scarce. The Developmental Psychiatry Diagnostic Challenges Study (DePsy) is a multi-site, prospective clinical study including s…
Misjudgement of One’s Own Performance? Exploring Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder (ADHD) and Individual Difference in Complex Music and Foreign Language Perception
In previous research, we detected that children and adolescents who were diagnosed with ADHD showed deficits in both complex auditory processing of musical stimuli and in musical performance when compared to controls. In this study, we were interested in whether we could detect similar or distinct findings when we use foreign speech perception tasks. Therefore, we recruited musically naïve participants ( n = 25), music-educated participants ( n =…
Mental Health and Health-Related Quality of Life in German Adolescents after the Third Wave of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Evaluations after the first and second waves of the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany showed an increase in mental health problems and a reduction in health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The aim of the study was to assess those aspects after the third wave of COVID-19 in adolescents who decided to receive a vaccination. In students aged 12-17 years recruited from schools in one German region, mental health (by the strengths and difficulties questio…
Problematic Internet Use among Adolescents 18 Months after the Onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Studies in recent years and especially since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic have shown a significant increase in the problematic use of computer games and social media. Adolescents having difficulties in regulating their unpleasant emotions are especially prone to Problematic Internet Use (PIU), which is why emotion dysregulation has been considered a risk factor for PIU. The aim of the present study was to assess problematic internet use…
Preschool Temperament as a Factor of Risk and Protection for Later Childhood Psychopathology
Our data suggests that preschool temperament contributes differently to the development of externalizing and internalizing problems in childhood. The temperament factor frustration/anger in preschool children might be a strong predictor of the general mental condition in childhood at nine years of age and can therefore be used as a target for prevention of psychopathology in children. On one hand, high sensory sensitivity can be a predictor to id…
Behavioral Inhibition in the Second Year of Life Is Predicted by Prenatal Maternal Anxiety, Overprotective Parenting and Infant Temperament in Early Infancy
Results indicate a predictive relevance of both infant and maternal factors for the development of behavioral inhibition in toddlerhood. Mothers who perceived more pregnancy-related anxiety showed more overprotective parenting and had infants with more distress to novelty. Further, mothers being more overprotective reported their child to be more inhibited in toddlerhood. Our findings also indicate the stability of reported infant distress to nov…
Feasibility and Effectiveness of a New Short-Term Psychotherapy Concept for Adolescents With Emotional Dysregulation
Background: The 'Stress-Trauma-Symptoms-Regulation-Treatment' (START) is an innovative manualized short-term treatment program for stabilization and stress resilience in emotionally dysregulated adolescents, based on an approach of stress and management and emotional regulation. The current pilot trial aims to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of the START intervention program for improvement of emotion regulation. Methods: Sixty-six adole…
Early Detection of Temperament Risk Factors
Despite an extensive literature on associations between early childhood temperament and behavior problems, most of this evidence is based on general population samples. Hence, relatively little is known about the temperament characteristics of children who have been referred for in- or outpatient treatment of emotional and/or behavioral problems. Whether temperament-to-behavior problems identified in community samples would also be found in sampl…
Maternal Bonding in Early Infancy Predicts Childrens' Social Competences in Preschool Age
Background: There are many studies on mother-child-bonding with little theoretical doubt that better bonding may have a positive effect on further social development. However, there is hardly any empirical evidence. In particular, there is a lack prospective longitudinal studies. Methods: As part of a longitudinal study, bonding was assessed in a community sample of 97 healthy mothers using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ) 6 weeks after…
Emotional Dysregulation in Preschool Age Predicts Later Media Use and Gaming Disorder Symptoms in Childhood
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of early Emotional Dysregulation (ED) at preschool age as a risk factor or predictor of later media use behavior and Gaming Disorder (GD) in school age. Methods: 80 patients (63.7% male; mean age = 4.2, SD = 1.23) who had attended a special outpatient program for preschoolers at measuring point time t1 were contacted at measuring point time t2 (mean age = 9.2, SD = 2.03). At t1, the compr…
