Meta-analysis of genome-wide linkage scans of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
2008
Contains fulltext : 69243.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Genetic contribution to the development of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is well established. Seven independent genome-wide linkage scans have been performed to map loci that increase the risk for ADHD. Although significant linkage signals were identified in some of the studies, there has been limited replications between the various independent datasets. The current study gathered the results from all seven of the ADHD linkage scans and performed a Genome Scan Meta Analysis (GSMA) to identify the genomic region with most consistent linkage evidence across the studies. Genome-wide significant linkage (P(S…
No association between two polymorphisms of the serotonin transporter gene and combined type attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
2008
Contains fulltext : 71091.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Several independent studies have reported association between serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) polymorphisms and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Five studies found evidence for association between the long-allele of a 44-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) and ADHD. Another two studies corroborated this finding while a further six studies did not find such an association. For a second polymorphism within the gene, a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) within intron 2, one study demonstrated that the 12/12 genotype was significantly less frequent in ADHD cases compared to controls, while a sec…
Mobbing, Bullying und andere Aggressionen unter Schülern als Quelle von Schulstress: Inwieweit sind die "Opfer" daran beteiligt?
2008
Schulstress kommt in erheblichem Maße auch durch aggressive Interaktionen zwischen Schülern zustande. Aggressionen in der Schule können vielfältige Formen annehmen und verschiedene Ursachen haben. In diesem Beitrag geht es um Bullying, Mobbing und relationale Aggression unter Schülern. Wichtige Forschungsbefunde zu den verschiedenen Aggressionsformen werden dargestellt. Anschließend wird eine psychoanalytische Behandlung einer Jugendlichen wegen Mobbing vorgestellt. Die Therapie erstreckte sich über 70 Stunden und umfasste auch begleitende Elterngespräche. Der Behandlungsverlauf verdeutlicht, dass es wichtig ist, die eigene Beteiligung der Schülerinnen und Schüler am Auslösen und Aufrechter…
Helsingin Jugendsali tilakokemuksena
2010
Tutkielman tavoitteena oli tarkastella Helsingissä sijaitsevan Jugendsalin tilallisia kokemuksia sen käyttäjien näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin, millaiseksi ihmiset kokivat Jugendsalin tilana, mitä siitä havainnoitiin ja mikä teki siitä merkityksellisen. Edellisten lisäksi haluttiin selvittää, miten ihmiset havainnoivat ympäristöään ja mitä tilat ihmisille merkitsevät. Kokemuksellisuuden tutkiminen rajattiin Jugendsalin Helsinki-tiedotuksen aikaan (vuodet 1984–2008) ja Café Jugendin aikaan (2008-). Tutkimuksen painotus oli Helsinki-tiedotuksen ajassa. Kuitenkin tutkimuksessa haluttiin tarkastella sitä, kuinka käyttötarkoituksen muutos vaikutti tilakokemukseen. Sen vuoksi myös Café…

Promoting youth entrepreneurship and employability through non-formal and informal learning: the Latvia case
2019
This paper presents some results of the research on ‘Adult education resources to reduce youth unemployment’, which is a part of the project ‘Implementation of the European agenda for adult learning’. The research applies a mixed-method approach (quantitative and qualitative data analysis). The purpose of the paper is to identify the most/least-efficient non-formal and informal learning methods, forms, and initiatives to promote youth entrepreneurship and employability in Latvia as well as to show the relationship between the profile of young adults and their opinion on these methods, forms, and initiatives. The findings show that the young adults stressed the importance of cooperation with…
Association of ADHD with genetic variants in the 5'-region of the dopamine transporter gene: evidence for allelic heterogeneity.
2008
Contains fulltext : 69953.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Multiple studies have reported an association between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the 10-repeat allele of a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of the dopamine transporter gene (DAT1). Yet, recent meta-analyses of available data find little or no evidence for this association; although there is strong evidence for heterogeneity between datasets. This pattern of findings could arise for several reasons including the presence of relatively rare risk alleles on common haplotype backgrounds or the functional interaction of two or more loci within the g…
Dopamine and serotonin transporter genotypes moderate sensitivity to maternal expressed emotion: the case of conduct and emotional problems in attent…
2009
Contains fulltext : 80906.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) BACKGROUND: Mothers' positive emotions expressed about their children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are associated with a reduced likelihood of comorbid conduct problems (CP). We examined whether this association with CP, and one with emotional problems (EMO), is moderated by variants within three genes, previously reported to be associated with ADHD and to moderate the impact of environmental risks on conduct and/or emotional problems; the dopamine transporter gene (SLC6A3/DAT1), the dopamine D4 receptor gene (DRD4) and the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4/5HTT). METHODS: Seven hundred and twenty-…
Linkage to chromosome 1p36 for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder traits in school and home settings.
2008
Contains fulltext : 69485.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) BACKGROUND: Limited success has been achieved through previous attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) linkage scans, which were all designed to map genes underlying the dichotomous phenotype. The International Multi-centre ADHD Genetics (IMAGE) project performed a whole genome linkage scan specifically designed to map ADHD quantitative trait loci (QTL). METHODS: A set of 1094 single selected Caucasian ADHD nuclear families was genotyped on a highly accurate and informative single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel. Two quantitative traits measuring the children's symptoms in home and school settings were collecte…
Genome-wide association scan of quantitative traits for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder identifies novel associations and confirms candidate…
2008
Contains fulltext : 70192.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a complex condition with environmental and genetic etiologies. Up to this point, research has identified genetic associations with candidate genes from known biological pathways. In order to identify novel ADHD susceptibility genes, 600,000 SNPs were genotyped in 958 ADHD proband-parent trios. After applying data cleaning procedures we examined 429,981 autosomal SNPs in 909 family trios. We generated six quantitative phenotypes from 18 ADHD symptoms to be used in genome-wide association analyses. With the PBAT screening algorithm, we identified 2 SNPs, rs6565113 and rs5526…
