摘要:

AbstractAn important assumption underlying the twin method of comparing NIZ and DZ twins is that results from twin samples can be generalized to the larger singleton population. This study uses Item Sheet data on child psychiatrc patients to compare twins and singletons on demographic, diagnostic and symptomatic variables. Although link' difference was found between the two groups, conduct disorders were significantly over‐represented in the twin population The‐ significance of this finding is discussed. This study lends overall support for the use of the twin method in child psychiatric samp

摘要:

AbstractThree subgroups of kindergarten boys (Stable conduct disordered‐hyperaetive (SCDH), Stable conduct disordered (SGD). Stable non deviat control(SC)) were‐ defined and Followed up three, four and five years later in primary schools. Using assessments From multiple informants (teachers, mothers peers, self), the results showed that SCDH boys were more hyperactive (i.e. overactive inattentive) and displayed a greater diversity of conduct problems in school and home at follow‐up compared to other groups. These results, and the fact that during early adolescence SCDH boys tend to develop a worse prognosis than SCD boys suggest that they should be distingu

摘要:

AbstractMotor presetting was investigated in hyperactive children, learning disabled children and normal controls. The reaction time of the hyperactive group was more sensitive to increases in interstimulus interval (even rate) than was that of the learning disabled and the controls. This finding indicates that hyperactive children have difficulty with motor presetting.

摘要:

AbstractA sustained attention deficit implies a deficit originating in the course of a task. A series of studies previously indicated that task inefficiency in hyperactive children is independent of task duration. The present study shows that differences in body activity between hyperactive and control children are also independent of task duration. However, the groups did differ in visual behaviour, i.e. hyperactive children did look away from the task more frequently as time proceeds. This visual behaviour did look interfere with task accuracy. It is argued that the results indicate that hyperactive children may have prevented a further deterioration of task efficiency over time through self stimulation.

摘要:

AbstractThis study examines the ability at a new visual vigilance task, the Preschool Vigilance Task (PVT), to differentiate between hyperactive and control preschoolers. The PVT was designed to be an objective measure of attention specifically for use with the preschool‐ape population. Hyperactive and control preschoolers were tested on the PVT and the Continuous Performance Task (CPT). Results indicated that both were useful in differentiating between hyperactive and control preschoolers. Implications for the utility of the PVT and future research directions are discusse

摘要:

AbstractAn inventory was developed to assess children's perceptions of what they did to feel better in stressful situations, and to examine the role of these perceptions in moderating (he relationship between stress and outcome. A total of 345 6–12 year old Children from diverse backgrounds were interviewed. Children's perceptions of what they do to relieve distress could be organized into six factors including the use of social support, distraction/avoidance, and other categories of roping which show continuity with those identified for infants and toddlers. Several types of toping served as compensatory moderators of the relationship between stress and self‐wo

摘要:

AbstractWe compared the formal thought disorder ratings of 27 children with complex partial seizure disorder, 31 schizophrenic children and 58 normal children. The epileptic children with fullscale EQ, scores below 100 had significantly more formal thought disorder than normal children with a similar IQ. The severity of their formal thought disorder was related to the age of seizure onset, seizure control and a diagnosis of schizophrenia spectrum disorder. The schizophrenic children had thought disorder irrespective of IQ scores. The cognitive correlates of their formal thought disorder scores differed from those of the epileptic children. Possible anatomical substrates of thought disorder in childhood complex partial seizure disorder and schizophrenia are discussed.
