“…Maltreated children engage in less symbolic and dyadic play (Alessandri, 1991); they may fail to show typical empathic responses to distress in other children (Howes & Espinosa, 1985;Klimes-Dougan & Kistner, 1990;Main & George, 1985); they make fewer references to internal states, and maltreating mother-child dyads discuss emotions less frequently than do nonmaltreating dyads (Beeghly & Cicchetti, 1994;Shipman & Zeman, 1999); and they manifest delayed theory-of-mind understanding (Cicchetti, Rogosch, Maughan, Toth, & Bruce, 2003;Pears & Fisher, 2005). Maltreated preschoolers have poorer understanding of universal adult (During & McMahon, 1991) and child facial expressions of emotion (Camras, Grow, & Ribordy, 1983;Camras et al, 1990) and show clear limitations of social cognition in story-stem completion tasks (Macfie, Cicchetti, & Toth, 2001;Macfie et al, 1999).…”

We discuss the neural and neurobiological underpinnings of the core features of borderline personality disorder (BPD), including emotion dysregulation, impulsivity, disturbed interpersonal functioning, identity diffusion, and feelings of inner pain. We review neurobiological research that supports a developmental, biobehavioral switch-model of the relationship between mentalization, stress, and attachment. Although it is likely that there are different developmental pathways to BPD, involving complex interactions between environmental, biological, and psychosocial factors, the final common outcome of these pathways is a low threshold for the activation of the attachment system and for deactivation of controlled mentalization, coupled with impairments in the ability to differentiate mental states of self and other. This leads to hypersensitivity and increased susceptibility to contagion from other people's mental states, poor integration of cognitive and affective aspects of mentalization, and dysfunctions in stress-regulation systems. The treatment implications of this neurobiologically informed model of BPD are discussed.

“…Probablemente, más que aludir a la delincuencia en sentido estricto, sería más apropiado ligar este resultado con la emergencia de conductas agresivas y coercitivas (Bolger et al, 1998; Klimes-Dougan y Kistner, 1990;Wolfe et al, 1998), demostrativas de una socialización y funcionamiento social deficientes (Dodge et al, 1994;Okun, Parker, y Levendosky, 1994).…”

“…Aunque diversos trabajos relacionan la emergencia de conductas agresivas tanto en niños preecolares que recibieron maltrato (Klimes-Dougan y Kistner, 1990;Reidy, 1977), como entre adolescentes (Wolfe, Wekerle, Reitzel-Jaffe, y Lefebvre, 1998), en otros trabajos las reacciones halladas de estos niños son contrarias a la ira y a la agresividad, dando muestras más bien de extrema timidez, miedo al fracaso y ansiedad (Lynch y Roberts, 1982) lo que se acentúa ante situaciones estresantes (Christozov y Toteva, 1989).…”

Objetivo: El presente trabajo trata de analizar las consecuencias del maltrato y la relación esperable, según la literatura consultada, con los problemas de conducta en una muestra de menores acogidos en un centro de protección de la provincia de Sevilla (España). Método: La muestra estuvo constituida por un grupo de sujetos maltratados en situación de protección (n1 = 30) y dos grupos de comparación equivalentes (n2 = 30 y n3 = 30). El primero de estos grupos testigo quedó conformado por sujetos residentes en una zona marginal de Sevilla similar al lugar de procedencia del grupo de estudio y el segundo grupo pertenecı́a a una zona acomodada de esta ciudad. Se utilizó como instrumento el listado de problemas de conducta CBC Achenbach 1978; Achenbach 1979 ; Achenbach and Edelbrock 1983). Resultados: No se alcanzaron diferencias significativas entre los grupos en la puntuación total del CBC, pero sı́ en el factor de banda ancha externalizante y en los factores delincuencia, ansiedad somática, problemas somáticos, delincuencia no-sociabilidad y retraimiento social. Se halló que el tipo de maltrato por corrupción destacó en el total de la prueba CBC, en el factor de segundo orden externalizante y en los dos elementos que engloban la delincuencia. Conclusiones: Los jóvenes que han experimentado maltrato y, además, se hallan institucionalizados, exhiben en mayor medida conductas externalizadas (conductas delictivas en sus dos formas), al tiempo que conductas de retraimiento. El análisis de los subtipos de maltrato sugiere que el principal responsable de las manifestaciones psicopatológicas procede de la categorı́a de corrupción junto con el abandono o con el maltrato emocional.Purpose: The present study tries to analyse the maltreatment effects and the expected relation, according to the reviewed literature, with behaviour problems in a sample of children in residential care in a protection centre in Seville county (Spain). Method: The sample was conformed by a group of maltreated subjects in a protection setting (n = 30) and two groups of equivalent comparison (n = 30 and n = 30). The first group was conformed by subjects living in a marginal area of Sevilla, similar to the origin setting of the study group, and the second group comes from a wealthy area of this city. The behaviour problems index CBC of Achenbach 1978; Achenbach 1979 ; Achenbach and Edelbrock 1983) was used. Results: No significant differences between groups in the CBC total score was found. However, significant differences were found in the extemalising dimension and in the delinquency, somatic anxiety, somatic problems, and social withdrawal dimensions. Victims of corruption presented higher scores on the CBC total score, extemalising dimension, and delinquency. Conclusions: Young people, victims of child maltreatment and living in an institution, showed problems of withdrawal. Victims of corruption or emotional abuse presented more psychopathological problemsObjectif: Cette étude essaie d’analyser les effets des mauvais traiteme...

“…Their caregivers were observed to display inconsistent behaviour toward their infants: they appeared to be frightened of their infants, as well as being frightening towards them (Main and Hesse, 1990). Maltreated children have been found to respond with anger and aggression both to friendly gestures from other children and to signs of distress from peers (Howes and Eldredge, 1985;Main and George, 1985;Klimes-Dougan and Kistner, 1990). Maltreated children have also been observed to respond to distress in peers by exhibiting fear and vacillating between comforting and attacking behaviours (Main and George, 1985).…”
