摘要:

AbstractA whole population survey of an inner‐city health district (population 130,000) was undertaken in order to study the association between social deprivation and non‐organic growth delay in preschool children Potential cases were identified from health clinic records Cases comprised white, full‐term singletons, whose weight and height lay below tin: tenth centile at 4 yean of age. Allowance was made for parental stature. A comparison group was closely matched for socio‐economic conditions, and other salient variables. Case children were comparatively significantly delayed in all areas of their cognitive development. One‐third were seriously retarded and likely to require special

摘要:

AbstractThe pattern and progression in drug use across a 1‐year interval was investigated for 54 hyperactives and 47 controls aged 13–18. Initiation and Use rates between groups at Time I and Time 2 also were studied Patterns of drug usage differed slightly between hyperactives and Controls, with the hyperactives showing greater involvement with cigarettes, As well, the data for progression in use across the I ‐year interval showed that hyperactives were by‐and‐large less predictable than controls in the progression of their drug use.Implications of these findings for future research arc

摘要:

AbstractThe positive and negative symptom distinction has been found to be valid in research on schizophrenia in adulthood. The present study examined age‐related changes in the occurrence of positive and negative symptoms in psychiatric ally disturbed children who were receiving psychiatric treatment for the first time The effect of age on the manifestation of positive and negative symptoms was significant; positive symptoms increased linearly with age, while negative symptoms were most frequent in early childhood and late adolescence. This finding held for the entire sample of children, as well as the subsample of children with psychotic diagnoses. There were few sex differences in the rate of symptoms, although age trends varied somewhat by sex. Examination of the relation between symptomatology and IQ revealed that high‐IQ children showed greater positive and fewer negative symptoms than low‐IQ children. Results are discussed in terms of the importance of examining developmental differences in positive and negative sym

摘要:

AbstractThe case notes of 1069 children and teenagers admitted to Bethlem Royal Hospital, (“Bedlam”), in the nineteenth century were analysed with particular reference to the frequencies and types of hallucinations. There was a significant increase (P<0.001) in the frequencies of auditory and visual hallucinations from 1830 to the end of the century. The presence of auditory hallucinations of people, when they occurred in males, significantly worsened the prognosis (P<0.025)compared to females. Thefindings are considered with special reference to the incidence and aetiology of schizophrenia in the last cent

摘要:

AbstractIdentification of hearing‐impaired children with the additional language‐learning difficulty of dyspraxia, defined by Van Uden(1981, 1983), is explored. Results from 12 diagnostic sublets obtained by Van Uden's sample of profoundly deaf children and a Manchester sample with wider ranges of age and hearing loss were analysed by the Q‐technique of fatter analysis. Comparison of Q profiles revealed a dyspraxic/eupraxic profile for Van Uden's sample, but a linguistic/non‐linguistic profile for the Manchester Sample. Two Manchester children who fulfilled the specified criteria and showed the dyspraxic profile had no known additional language‐learning difficulties. Usefulness of the Q‐technique for the profile analysis of hearing‐unpaired children is discussed, and comparisons made with the results from clu

摘要:

AbstractIn a reliability study concerning axis V (abnormal psychosocial situations) of the Multiaxial classification scheme for psychiatric disorders in childhood and adolescence, it was found that the level of agreement in storing was adequate for only 2 out of 12 categories, A proposal for a modification of axis V was made, including a differentiation and regrouping of the categories and an adjustment of the descriptions in the glossary With this modification of axis V another reliability study was carried out, in which the level of agreement in scoring was adequate for 12 out of 16 categories.

摘要:

AbstractChild and parent ratings of 14 items of the Children's Depression Rating Scale‐Revised are compared for a non‐clinical and clinical sample Four hypotheses are tested: (1) children and parents differ in riling depressive symptoms; (2) children rate depressions less severely than parents; (3) parents report greater severity for behavioral and children for ideational symptoms; and (4) the relationship between child and parent ratings does not differ between samples. The first hypothesis was supported in the non‐clinical sample and the second in the clinical sample. Support for the third hypothesis was equivocal. Finally, the fourth hypothesis was rejected. Implications of these results for the diagnosis of depression in childhood are disc
