“…The prevalence of depressive symptoms among adolescents varies greatly between different countries and regions. A study based on 11 European countries (e.g., France, Germany, and Italy) found that the rate of depressive symptoms in adolescents ranged 7.1% to 19.4% [11]. In Asia, according to a school-based study in North India, the prevalence of depressive symptoms amongst adolescents has reached 40% [12].…”

This study explores the prevalence and socio-demographic correlates of depressive symptoms in early adolescents in China, as well as the differences between an only child and non-only child group. A total of 2059 seventh-grade Chinese students were invited to complete a questionnaire, which included questions concerning socio-demographic factors, family function, and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The results revealed the following things. (1) thirty-four point seven percent of the participating Chinese early adolescents display symptoms of depression according to Radloff’s criteria. Differences are significant across the four dimensions (i.e., positive affect, negative affect, somatic symptoms and retarded activity, and interpersonal difficulties), as well as across total scores between only children and children with sibling(s). (2) Academic achievement, having sibling(s) or not, migration, and family function can significantly predict depressive symptoms. (3) Two significant interactions were found, which were between sibling(s) and gender as well as sibling(s) and family function. Girls from the non-only child group and adolescents from the only child group with poor family function were more likely to have depressive symptoms. These findings suggest that a greater focus should be placed on girls from non-only child families, academic under-performers, migrants, and adolescents from poor family environments, and especially only children, to prevent or reduce the propensity for depressive symptoms.

“…Específicamente, se estima que la prevalencia de la depresión en adolescentes alcanzaría aproximadamente al 14% de la población, en tanto que los trastornos ansiosos estarían presentes en un 32% (Balazs et al, 2012;Merikangas et al, 2010). En Chile la prevalencia de estos trastornos superaría el 7% de la población, siendo de los más frecuentes en el tramo de 12 a 18 años de edad (De la Barra, Vicente, Saldivia, & Melipillán, 2012).…”

Sintomatología en víctimas de abuso sexual: ¿son importantes las características “objetivas” del abuso?

Resumen: Las víctimas de abuso sexual presentan mayor sintomatología que la población general, aun cuando su intensidad es altamente variable. Los abusos más graves (frecuentes, violentos, con penetración) serían los que se asociarían a mayor sintomatología, no obstante, la evidencia no es concluyente. El objetivo del estudio fue describir la sintomatología en víctimas de abuso sexual y evaluar su relación con la gravedad del abuso. Participaron 143 adolescentes entre 12 y 17 años (83 víctimas de abuso sexual y 60 sin antecedentes de abuso) que respondieron a escalas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés postraumático. Ambos grupos presentaron niveles similares de depresión y ansiedad, pero los adolescentes con antecedentes de abuso presentaron mayor estrés postraumático. En el grupo con antecedentes de abuso la sintomatología varió según la curva normal, pero la gravedad del abuso no explicó dicha variación. Únicamente las mujeres presentaron mayor depresión, ansiedad y estrés postraumático que los varones, y las víctimas de abuso extrafamiliar presentaron mayor estrés postraumático que los victimizados dentro de sus familias. Se cuestiona la idea de "objetivar" la gravedad del abuso y se discute acerca de la necesidad de estudiar los factores que mediarían la relación entre la gravedad de los abusos y la sintomatología.

“…In 2014, an estimated 2.8 million adolescents in the United States experienced at least one major depressive episode, representing 11.4% of the underage U.S. population (Hedden, 2015). Representative data from European countries illustrate similar rates among adolescents (7.1%–19.4%) with regional differences (Balazs et al, 2012). Psychiatric disorders present a major burden for the individual and our society, placing them distant first in the global burden of disease statistics (Vigo, Thornicroft, & Atun, 2016).…”

Neurovisceral regulatory circuits of affective resilience in youth

The Neurovisceral Integration Model (NIM) is one of the most influential psychophysiological models addressing the interplay between the autonomic (ANS) and central nervous system (CNS). In their groundbreaking conceptual work, integrating autonomic, attentional, and affective systems into a functional and structural network, Thayer & Lane laid the foundation for empirical research in the past two decades. The present paper provides a principal outline aiming to reflect and further elaborate on the model from a dynamic developmental perspective. The central question at hand is, how does neurovisceral integration develop (early in life)? By reviewing the existing evidence, it is illustrated that key components of the model, both, on a physiological and psychological level, undergo extensive change early in the course of life. This sensitive period of human development seems key for our understanding of the integrated action of the ANS and CNS in emotion across the lifespan. Early life events may interfere with the fine-tuned interplay of this shared neural circuitry resulting in long-term dysfunction and psychiatric illness. In the absence of longitudinal data covering the entire co-development of the ANS and CNSfrom early childhood to adolescence into early adulthood, it is suggested, that vagal activity and its normative increase in adolescence is a key premise for normative brain development on a structural and functional level, subsequent psychological functioning and adaptive regulation. Implications from this dynamic perspective and suggestions for future research in the field of developmental psychophysiology are discussed.
