Trauma- Stressor

Trauma and Stressor Related Disorders

QuestionAnswer
Reactive Attachment Disorder Reactive attachment disorder of infancy or early childhood is characterized by a pattern of markedly disturbed and developmentally inappropriate attachment behaviors, in which a child rarely or minimally turns preferentially to an attachment figure for comfort, support, protection, and nurturance. The essential feature is absent or grossly underdeveloped attachment between the child and putative caregiving adults.
Reactive Attachment Disorder (Criterion A) A. Consistent pattern of inhibited, emotionally withdrawn behavior toward adult caregivers, manifested by the following: 1. The child rarely or minimally seeks comfort when distressed 2. The child rarely or minimally responds to comfort when distressed.
Reactive Attachment Disorder (Criterion B) B. Persistent social and emotional disturbance characterized by at least two of the following: 1. minimal social and emotional responsiveness to others 2. Limited positive affect 3. Episodes of unexplained irritability, sadness, or fearfulness that are evident even during nonthreatening interactions with adult caregivers.
Reactive Attachment Disorder (Criterion C) C. The child experienced a pattern of extremes of insufficient care by at least one of the following: 1. Social neglect or deprivation in the form of persistent lack of having basic emotional needs for comfort, stimulation, and affection met by caregiving adults. 2. Repeated changes of primary caregivers that limit opportunities to form stable attachments. 3. Rearing in unusual settings that severally limit opportunities to form selective attachments.
Reactive Attachment Disorder (Criterion D-G) D. The care in Criterion C is presumed to be responsible for the disturbed behavior in Criterion A. E. Criteria are not met for autism spectrum disorder F. The disturbance is evident before age 5 G. The child is has at least 9 month of developmental age
Reactive Attachment Disorder (Specifiers) Persistent- present for more than 12 months Severe- All symptoms present of the disorder and are expressed at relatively high levels
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder The essential feature of disinhibited social engagement disorder is a pattern of behavior that involves culturally inappropriate, overly familiar behavior with relative strangers. This overly familiar behavior violates the social boundaries of the culture. A diagnosis of disinhibited social engagement disorder should not be made before children are developmentally able to form selective attachments. For this reason, the child must have a developmental age of at least 9 months.
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (Criterion A) A. Child actively approaches and interacts with unfamiliar adults and exhibits two of the following: 1. Reduced or absent reticence in approaching and interacting with unfamiliar adults. 2. Overly familiar verbal or physical behavior (that is not consistent with culturally sanctioned and with age-appropriate social boundaries) 3. Diminished or absent checking back with adult caregiver in unfamiliar settings. 4. Willingness to go off with an unfamiliar adult with minimal or no hesitation.
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (Criterion B) B. The behaviors in Criterion A are not limited to impulsivity (as in ADHD) but include socially disinhibited behavior.
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (Criterion C: 1-2) C. The child has experienced a pattern of extremes of insufficient care as evidenced by at least one of the following: 1. Social neglect or deprivation in the form of persistent lack of having basic emotional needs for comfort, stimulation, and affection met by caregiving adults. 2. Repeated changes of primary caregivers that limit opportunities to form stable attachments (e.g., frequent changes in foster care).
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (Criterion C: 3 & D & E) 3. Rearing in unusual settings that severely limit opportunities to form selective attachments (e.g., institutions with high child-to-caregiver ratios). D. The care in Criterion C is presumed to be responsible for the disturbed behavior in Criterion A (e.g., the disturbances in Criterion A began following the pathogenic care in Criterion C). E. The child has a developmental age of at least 9 months.
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (Specifier) Persistent: The disorder has been present for more than 12 months. Disinhibited social engagement disorder is specified as severe when the child exhibits all symptoms of the disorder, with each symptom manifesting at relatively high levels.
