Child Psychopath

Exam 2

QuestionAnswer
History of Schizo: 1906 DeSanctis dementia praecoccissima
History of Schizo 1930s-1960s childhood schizophrenia = autism, psychotic d/o
History of Schizo 1980s infantile autism, but no COS
History of Schizo 1990s autism and schizophrenia distinct
Epidemiology of Schizo average age of onset: 9-12 yrs for COS, very unusual before 6-7, VEOS <13, EOS > 13, earlier onset more insidious; later more acte, prevalence: 0.19 to 1 per 10,000, gender: 2:1 to 5:1 males
Schizo: core symptoms psychotic symptoms for 1+ month: hallucinations (most frequent, auditory most frequent vs visual), delusions, disorganized thoughts/formal thought disorder, grossly disorganized or catatonic bx, negative symptoms
Schizo: subtypes paranoid, disorganized, catatonic, undifferentiated
Schizo: childhood subtypes often not specified in children, although disorganized behavior is typically a key feature
Schizo: associated symptoms depression, oppositional bx, conduct dx, suicidal
Schizo: negative symptoms catatonic, reduced variability in expression, lack of social interaction
Schizo: phases premorbid, prodromal, acute/active, recovery, residual
Schizo: phases: premorbid early or advance abnormalities that may develop over several years
Schizo: phases: prodromal functional decline immediately preceding psychotic symptoms
Schizo: phases: acute/active positive symptoms and cognitive/social decline
Schizo: phases: recovery decline in positive symptoms, resume normal activities, negative symptoms may predominate
Schizo: phases: residual lack of positive symptoms, decline in negative, yet may remain impaired
Schizo: VEOS symptoms insidious, early onset of dev delays (3-10), other premorbid symptoms (prodromal symptoms too): shyness, isolation, lack of interest, suicidal ideation, bizarre bx, agg, paranoia, compulsions, anxiety, depression
Schizo: differential diagnosis very rare (r/o medical, meds, substances, trauma etc.); major depression, bipolar disorder, other psychotic disorders
Schizo: distinguishing from PDDs COS rarely < age 7, autism often < age 3; COS + hallucinations & delusions; COS less impaired intellectual functioning, autism often MR (more impaired); COS acquire lang but have deviant use later, autism have prob w/ lang acq.; COS episodic, autism cont.
Schizo: course acute pscyhotic phase longer in VEOS than EOS; earlier onset associated with poorer prognosis, more severe impairment; depression may follow active psychotic phase
Schizo: Etiological models (1) COS is a severe and chronic form of schizophrenia with early onset reflecting more severe biological disposition to the illness
Schizo: Etiological models (2) COS and AOS are different illnesses (no evidence)
Schizo: Etiological models (3) Atypical early onset of schizo is associated with potentiating factors such as severe psychosocial or biological stressors
Schizo: Etiological models (4) COS and AOS are the same illness with similar levels of clinical and etiological heterogeneity; COS are cases that are at the early end of the distribution of patients with schizophrenia
Schizo: Etiological models (Biological) many theories, some good evidence: CNS dysfunction and structural abnormalities; genetic influence supported by twin studies and family aggregation
Schizo: Etiological models (Psychological) likely influence; environmental and psychosocial stressors; family environment/expressed emotion
Schizo: Vulnerability Stress Model current model; transactional (no single factor explains etiology); combination of genetic predispositions + stressful life events - vulnerabilities, stressors, protective factors; model explains variations in symptomatic bx and psychosocial functioning
Schizo: Vulnerability Stress Model: life events Vulnerabilities (genetic, CNS damage, birth complications, inadequate learning, deviant family communication), Stressors (maj. life events, chronic hassels, life changes), Protective factors (intel., social support, social competence, healthy family comm.

Communication Disorders list expressive language d/o, mixed receptive-expressive language d/o, phonological d/o, stuttering, communication d/o NOS
Proposed DSM 5 Communication Disorders list language disorder, speech disorder, social communication disorder
DSM 5 language disorder persistent dif in acquisition/use of spoken language, written language, and other modalities of language, likely to endure into adolescence and adulthood. lang abilities below age expect. in 1 or more lang domaains evident by mult.sources of info
DSM 5 speech disorder persistent dif. in speech production can affect sound production, speech fluency, voice, or resonance. speech production atypical for age or symptomatic of abnormal oral-motor structure or function. based on multiple sources of info
DSM 5 Social communication disorder persistent dif in pragmatics or social uses of verbal/nonv comm. affects social reciprocity/relationships that cannot be explained by low abilities in domains of word structure/grammar. rule out ASD. results in functional limitations
Federal Definition of LD (specific learning disability) disorder in one or more basic psychological processes which may manifest in an imperfect ability to listen, speak, read, write, spell, or do math calculations. can include brain injury, brain dysfunction, dyslexia, develop. aphasia.
DSM IV LD list 315.00 reading disorder, 315.1 mathematics disorder, 315.2 disorder of written expression, 315.9 learning disorder, NOS
DSM 5 LD specific learning disorder
DSM IV 315 Reading Disorder reading achievement substatially below expected given age, measured intelligence, and education. sig. interferes w/ acad. achiev. or activity daily living that req. reading skills. if medical or sensory deficit - code on Axis 3
DSM IV 315.1 Mathematics Disorder mathematical ability substantially below expected given age, intelligence, and education. sig interferes w/acad. achievement or activities of daily living req. math ability. if medical or sensory deficit - code on Axis 3
DSM IV 315.2 Disorders of Written Expression writing skills substantially below expected given age, intelligence, and education. sig interferes w/acad. achievement or activities of daily living req. composition of written texts. if medical or sensory deficit - code on Axis 3
DSM IV 315.9 Learning Disorder NOS learning disorders that do not meet criteria for any specific LD. Problems in all 3 areas that together sig interfere with academic achievement even though test scores not substantially below that expected given age, IQ, and age-appropriate education
Epidemiology of LD: prevalence 2-10%, Reading d/o 80% of LD alone or in combo with other LDs; Math other 20%; Writing LD rare in isolation
Epidemiology of LD: males more common; course: Usually early elementary, but can’t diagnose until child has instruction in domain and shown evidence of poor perf.; associated features: low self esteem, social skills deficit, school drop-out, birth-related complications, GMCs
Epidemiology of LD: Comorbidities ODD / CD ADHD MDD Dysthymic d/o Other LDs
Epidemiology of LD: differential diagnosis Normal variations Lack of opportunity Poor teaching Cultural factors Vision, hearing impairments Mental retardation PDDs Communication d/o (can be comorbid)
LD models Borne from social and educational need; Central concept: Unexpected underachievement; To be considered valid, a model of identifying LD should: -Be reliable - Distinguish poor achieving LD and non-LD on factors other than those used to create the groups
LD: problems related to reliability dimensional nature of LDs; use of tests at a single point in time & cut-points; use of correlated tests & difference scores
LD: Validity of Discrepancy Models: 4 models list IQ-Achievement Discrepancy; Intra-individual Discrepancy; Low Achievement; Response to Intervention
LD: IQ-Achievement Discrepancy assumption - poor achiev. unexpect. due to higher IQ; no small dif on cog proc and achiev variables not related to how groups formed; no diff in reading develop or RTI, rate of growth/level of reading, genetic etiology; no evidence from neuroimaging
LD: Intra-Individual Discrepancy Assump: subtest scatter is marker for unexpected underachievment; px w/ reliability (mult subtests compounds std err); discounts kids w/ flatter profiles may also have LD; major assump - cog profile lead to better targeted tx (ATI lit not well supported)
LD: Intra-Individual Discrepancy: it can work intra-ind diffs can identify some kids with LD (e.g., dyslexia & px with word recognition and phonological processing)
LD: Low Achievement have validity but can't separate LD from non-LD low achievv: 3 gps: typical, LAch math, LAch reading onbasis of not MR and Ach <25th%ile differ on cog correlates, neurobiological correlates, heritability RTI; fail to account for unexpect underachievement
LD: Response to Intervention to be valid: combine w. low achiev model; operationalize unexp underachiev (nonresponse to instruction); problems: nature of instruction to provide, est of slope/intercept effects, decisions about cut-points, integrity of IV, etc.
LD: Response to Intervention: Emerging validity responders and nonresponders differ in pre-iv ach and cog tasks; nonresponders more severe reading px pre-iv; differences in brain activation (left hem); can differentiate LD from non-LD among low achievers
IDEA 2004 reauthorization: added procedures for identifying SLDs -permits IQ-Ach discrep -permits response to scientific, research based IV (RTI) -permits other alt research-based procedures (cog processes)
IDEA 2004 reauthorization: added criteria for determining SLDs -must consider data demonstrating child was provided approp instruction by qualified personnel, - req data documenting repeated assessments of achievement during instruction
Empirical support for LD subtypes: reading disorder (3) -word recognition/dyslexia, -reading comprehension, -reading fluency
Empirical support for LD subtypes: math disorder (2) -learning/retrieving math facts (due to reading + math problem), -math calculations (math px alone) - less evidence
Empirical support for LD subtypes: D/o of written expression little research
Etiological Models of Dyslexia (types) psychological, biological
Etiological Models of Dyslexia: psychological single-factor - phonological processing deficit
Etiological Models of Dyslexia: biological genetic (runs in families, >80 MZ,~50 DZ twins), neuroanatomical dif (cerebral lateralization - no evid, cerebral asymmetry, minor cortical malformations - from abnorm cell migration), neurofunctional diff (diff patterns of activation)
LD:Proposed changes from DSM IV to DSM 5: only Specific Learning Disorder looks at individual's history, psychoeducational reports of test scores and observations, and RTI; descriptive features specifiers; specify domains of academic difficulties and subskills (reading, written expression, mathematics)
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV criteria caveat only one criterion A symptom required if delusions are bizarre or hallucinations consist of a voice keeping up a running commentary on the person's behavior or thoughts, or two or more voices conversing with each other
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion A: characteristic symptoms 2 or more, present for sig. portion of time during 1-mo period (1) delusions (2) hallucinations (3)disorganized speech (4) grossly disorganized or catatonic bx (5) neg symptoms
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion B: social/occupational dysfunction for sig portion of time since onset of disturbance, 1 or more major areas of funct. (e.g., work, interpersonal relations,self-care) markedly below level achieved prior to onset
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion C (duration) disturbance persists for 6 months (must include @least 1 month of symptoms that meet Criterion A and may inc prodromal or residual symptoms
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion D: schizoaffective and mood disorder (w/ psychotic features) exclusion - have been ruled out either (1) no Major Depressive, Manic, or Mixed Episodes have occurred concurrently with the active phase symptoms; or (2) mood episodes occurred during active-phase sympt, total duration has been brief relative to the dur. of the active/residual periods
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion E: substance/general medical condition exclusion The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication) or a general medical condition.
Schizophrenia: DSM-IV: Criterion F: Relationship to a PDD If there is a history of Autistic Disorder or another Pervasive Developmental Disorder, the additional diagnosis of Schizophrenia is made only if prominent delusions or hallucinations are also present for at least a month (or less if successfully treated)
Schizophrenia: DSM 5 proposed changes: Criterion A 2 or more (for 1 month): @least 1 should include 1, 2, or 3. (1) delusions, (2) hallucinations, (3) disorganized speech, (4) grossly abn psychomotor bx (inc catatonia), (5) neg symptoms
Schizophrenia: DSM 5 proposed changes: Criterion F: If history of ASD or another PDD or other communication disorder of childhood onset, the additional diagnosis of Schizophrenia is made only if prominent delusions or hallucinations are also present for at least 1 month (or less if successfully treated)
