A Developmental Framework for Infancy and Early Childhood

There is a steady accumulation of research and clinical evidence documenting the effect of traumatic events on the development of infants and young children. Trauma involves the impact of extreme…

61 GENETIC AND OTHER VULNERABILITY FACTORS FOR ANXIETY AND STRESS DISORDERS

Despite dramatic advances in our understanding of genetics and neurobiology, the etiology of the anxiety disorders is still relatively unknown. To date, there remain no pathognomonic markers with…

Childhood Maltreatment and Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders

TLDR
Treatment and prevention of childhood maltreatment and its sequelae may help mitigate risk for perinatal psychopathology and its impact on maternal and child outcomes.

Building child trauma theory from longitudinal studies: a meta-analysis.

Pediatric Posttraumatic Stress

TLDR
It is the goal to further pediatric PTSD treatment through evidence-based research, implementation and dissemination of programs, and policy change.

Clinical implications of traumatic stress from birth to age five.

TLDR
The prevalence of traumatic exposure in the birth-to-five age range, the indicators and diagnostic criteria of early traumatic stress, and the contextual issues associated with the experience of early trauma are examined.

Parent-child interaction and childhood post-traumatic stress: A prospective study.

There is to date no comprehensive theoretical account of how PTSD develops in children. Theories of adult PTSD (e.g. Brewin, Dalgleish and Joseph, 1996, Ehlers and Clarke, 2000) exist yet their…

An integrative model of pediatric medical traumatic stress.

TLDR
A model for assessing and treating pediatric medical traumatic stress (PMTS) is presented that integrates the literature across pediatric conditions and provides a basis for further development of evidence-based treatments.

TLDR
The use of epidemiological data to examine causal processes is discussed, with attention to the need to consider development in its social context and to examine indirect, as well as direct, causal chains of connection.

Moral development and psychopathological interference in conscience functioning among adolescents after trauma.

TLDR
The findings suggest that therapeutic consideration should be given to assisting children in integrating the horror of their traumatic experiences and the harshness of posttrauma adversities into an adaptive schema of good and evil in themselves and the world.

Childhood adversity, attachment and personality styles as predictors of anxiety among elderly caregivers.

TLDR
Results indicated that childhood adversity and paranoid, histrionic and self-defeating styles all directly increase the odds of having an anxiety disorder as an elderly spousal caregiver.

Animal Models of Relevance to PTSD

TLDR
Clinical studies have yielded important empiric findings on ways in which the neurobiology of persons with PTSD differs from that of normal controls and from that that of individuals with other psychiatric disorders, including apparent increased baseline activation of the noradrenergic system and exaggerated nor adrenergic responses to pharmacologic perturbation.

An ecological-transactional analysis of children and contexts: the longitudinal interplay among child maltreatment, community violence, and children's symptomatology.

TLDR
Evidence that children and their contexts mutually influence each other over time in shaping individual development and adaptation is discussed within the framework of an ecological-transactional model of development.

TLDR
The environment as well as genetics is important to understanding childhood psychiatric disorders, and behavioral genetic designs provide the best evidence for this, and environments not shared by siblings are particularly salient.
