“…Previous studies have noted developmental differences-particularly between children and adolescents-in control-related beliefs, perceptions of parents, and rates of depressive symptoms (e.g., Birmaher et al, 1996;Kovacs, 1992;Skinner, Zimmer-Gembeck, & Connell, 1998;Weisz, 1990;Weiss et al, 1991). None of these lines of evidence leads directly to a specific prediction about developmental differences in the mediational process we have hypothesized linking perceived parenting, perceived control, and depressive symptoms.…”

“…None of these lines of evidence leads directly to a specific prediction about developmental differences in the mediational process we have hypothesized linking perceived parenting, perceived control, and depressive symptoms. Furthermore, gender differences have been noted in control-related beliefs and depressive symptoms, particularly between children and adolescents (e.g., Birmaher et al, 1996;Weiss et al, 1991;Weisz et al, 2001). Yet again the evidence did not point to a specific gender hypothesis regarding the mediational models of interest.…”

Previous research suggests that both perceived parental control and rejection may be linked to youth depression. However, research has not definitively determined which dimension matters more, nor examined mediation within a clinical sample. We used a sample of clinically referred youth (aged 7-17) to determine (a) which parenting dimension is more closely associated with youth depression, and (b) whether youngsters' perceptions of control mediated the association. Perceived parental rejection was strongly linked to depressive symptoms (perceived parental control was not); youth perceived control did in fact mediate the association, and robustly so across gender and age groups. The findings suggest a developmental process in depression, plus potential foci for prevention and treatment programs.

“…Self-reported depression was assessed by the children's depression inventory (CDI) [22,23] in all children over 7 years old. Anxiety was assessed using the state-trait anxiety inventory for children (STAIC) in those <13 and the state-trait anxiety inventory for adult (STAI) in those 13 and over [24,25].…”

An example of psychological adjustment in chronic illness: Hirschsprung’s disease

The aim of this study was to investigate the outcomes after definitive surgical correction for children with Hirschsprung's disease (HD) and the psychosocial impact of HD on the child and family. The total sample comprised 72 children with HD along with their families. The development of a condition-specific questionnaire measured the functional and psychosocial outcomes for children with HD with parental perception of their child's condition. Psychiatric measures were also examined to assess psychiatric morbidity. The greatest functional problem after definitive surgery for HD was faecal soiling (76%). The principle findings of the study were that (1) HD did not have a significant impact on the child's rate of psychiatric morbidity and levels of hopefulness in comparison to the normal population, (2) surgical and psychosocial functioning improved with increasing age and, (3) families remain troubled about their future with HD and dealing with psychosocial difficulties related to the condition (such as distress because of faecal soiling). Specifically, faecal soiling was found to be physically, emotionally and psychosocially distressing complication. Bowel functioning and psychosocial distress improves with increasing age and parental and medical professional support. Despite the significant impairment of faecal continence, we found that children/young adults with HD have minimal psychiatric morbidity, yet experience condition-specific psychosocial problems (e.g. embarrassment and distress/discomfort). HD does not increase the rate of clinical psychiatric morbidity in children and families with HD, but does determine the context of their daily distress and concern.

“…In addition, depression and dysphoria among male adolescents have been related to increased alcohol involvement in early adulthood, even after controlling for initial levels of substance using behaviors (Locke & Newcomb, 2001). A potential confound in some of these studies is that commonly used measures of childhood depression often include items related to conduct problems (Weiss et al, 1991), which may account for the positive relation between depression and substance use (Kumpulainen & Roine, 2002). However, longitudinal evidence suggests that depression in boys may predict later adolescent alcohol use and substance use disorders, even after controlling for co-occurring conduct problems (Henry et al, 1993;Sung et al, 2004).…”

Few prospective studies have examined the relation between early adolescent conduct disorder symptoms and the development of alcohol use disorders (AUD) by young adulthood. The relative contribution of other forms of adolescent psychopathology (i.e., attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression, anxiety/withdrawal) to the development of AUD also remains poorly understood. There is some suggestion that the co-occurrence of conduct disorder symptoms with other forms of psychopathology may interact synergistically in predicting later alcohol use problems. The current study explores these issues using data on 506 boys from the oldest sample of the Pittsburgh Youth Study. Consistent with prior research, early conduct disorder symptoms emerged as a consistent predictor of increased AUD symptoms and an alcohol dependence diagnosis by young adulthood. In contrast, adolescent boys with high levels of anxiety/withdrawal had lower levels of AUD symptoms and were less likely to develop alcohol dependence by young adulthood. Increased depression in early adolescence was associated with higher AUD symptoms and alcohol abuse and dependence diagnoses by young adulthood, but only for boys with high levels of conduct disorder symptoms. No evidence was found for a relation between attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms and AUD symptoms or diagnoses after controlling for co-occurring psychopathology.
