Peer victimization predicts the development of mental health symptoms in transition to adolescence, but it is unclear whether and how parents school environments can buffer this link.
Neighborhood deprivation adversely effects neurodevelopment and cognitive function; however, mechanisms remain unexplored. could be particularly impactful in late childhood/early adolescence, neural regions with protracted developmental trajectories, e.g., prefrontal cortex (PFC). The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study recruited 10,205 youth. Geocoded residential history was used to extract individual neighborhood characteristics. A general ability index MRI scans were...
Converging evidence suggests that hippocampal subregions subserve different functions, and are differentially affected by psychosis illness progression. Despite this fact, studies have not often studied cross-sectionally across the spectrum. Furthermore, little is known about associations between subregion volumes hippocampus-mediated cognition.
BackgroundAssessing dimensions of neighborhoods could aid identification contextual features that influence psychopathology in children and contribute to uncovering mechanisms underlying these associations. MethodThe ABCD sample included 11,868 participants aged 9-10 from 21 U.S. sites. Mixed effect structural equation models estimated associations neighborhood threat deprivation with symptoms indirect effects. Hypothesized emotion processing (adaptation emotional conflict, task-active ROIs...
ObjectiveNeighborhood adversity predicts mental health and cognitive outcomes, but little is known about structural factors that may buffer these links. The current study addresses this gap by assessing the role of protective in association neighborhood deprivation, threat, segregation with psychopathology symptoms outcomes. MethodLinear mixed models were run ABCD sample 11,868 participants to test associations Area Deprivation Index (ADI; deprivation), crime (threat), dissimilarity...

Adolescence is among the most vulnerable period for emergence of serious mental illnesses. Addressing this vulnerability has generated interest in identifying markers risk symptoms and opportunities early intervention. Physical fitness been linked to psychopathology may be a useful marker target New wearable technology made assessing behavior more practical while avoiding recall self-report bias. Still, questions remain regarding clinical utility physical metrics health, both...
The National Institute of Mental Health Research Domain Criteria's (RDoC) has prompted a paradigm shift from categorical psychiatric disorders to considering multiple levels vulnerability for probabilistic risk disorder. However, the lack neurodevelopmentally-based tools clinical decision-making limited RDoC's real-world impact. Integration with developmental psychopathology principles and statistical methods actualize implementation RDoC inform neurodevelopmental risk. In this conceptual...

Abstract Background Motor abnormalities are strong transdiagnostic indicators of psychopathology risk that reflect emerging neural network abnormalities. Indeed, motor signs, such as slowing and agitation, widely recognized core features both psychosis depression. However, it is unclear whether these shared or distinct etiology. Methods A sample 11 878 adolescents completed self-reported clinical measures rated psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) Familial for the presence signs were drawn from...
Motor abnormalities, such as psychomotor agitation and retardation, are widely recognized core features of depression. However, it is not currently known whether motor abnormalities connote risk for Using data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study, a nationally representative sample youth (N = 10,835, 9–11 years old), present paper examines associated with 1) depression symptoms in early adolescence, 2) familial (familial loading), 3) future symptoms. abnormality...

Psychotic disorders are highly debilitating with poor prognoses and courses of chronic illness. In recent decades, conceptual models have shaped understanding, informed treatment, guided research questions. However, these classically focused on the adolescent early adulthood stages immediately preceding onset while conceptualizing infancy through all childhood as a unitary premorbid period. addition, paid limited attention to differential effects types stress; contextual factors such local,...
