Minimization of childhood maltreatment is common and consequential: results from a large, multinational sample using the childhood trauma questionnai…

2016

Childhood maltreatment has diverse, lifelong impact on morbidity and mortality. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) is one of the most commonly used scales to assess and quantify these experiences and their impact. Curiously, despite very widespread use of the CTQ, scores on its Minimization-Denial (MD) subscale-originally designed to assess a positive response bias-are rarely reported. Hence, little is known about this measure. If response biases are either common or consequential, current practices of ignoring the MD scale deserve revision. Therewith, we designed a study to investigate 3 aspects of minimization, as defined by the CTQ's MD scale: 1) its prevalence; 2) its latent struc…

Retrospective reports of childhood abuse and neglect among violent and property offenders

1997

Abstract Childhood abuse and neglect may increase the risk for later antisocial and criminal behavior, especially violent behavior. The objective of this study was retrospectively to compare childhood abuse and neglect experiences in the groups of Violent and Property offenders. The sample consisted of 34 recidivist inmates with the mean age of 26.9 years. The findings showed that physical, psychological, and sexual abuse and neglect was experienced by 82%, 97%, 3% and 94% of the offenders, respectively. There were no significant differences in the prevalence of abuse or neglect between the Violent and Property offenders. Neither were the groups differentiated by any combination of the abus…

Das Langzeit-Follow-up in der deutschen pädiatrischen Onkologie als Basis für die Durchführung von Studien mit Langzeitüberlebenden

2005

BACKGROUND In recent years, the long-term survival of childhood cancer patients has increased considerably. While this is desirable, more patients with late effects are to be expected and studies thereof become increasingly important. We will need to be able to stay in touch with as many former patients as possible in order to make a systematic and comprehensive long-term follow-up possible. PATIENTS Childhood cancer patients under 15 years of age at diagnosis resident in Germany and registered at the German Childhood Cancer Registry (GCCR). METHODS The GCCR has established a 3-phase procedure for follow-up. We developed principles for the long-term follow up of these patients. They are bas…

Epidemiologie von Hirntumoren im Kindesalter

2000

The German Childhood Cancer Registry (GCCR) was established in 1980. From 1980 to 1997 4,447 CNS tumours in children below 15 years of age have been reported to the registry. From 1988 to 1997 the average annual incidence was 2.5/100,000 children. This corresponds to 19.2% of the registered diseases. Compared with incidence rates reported from other developed countries one can estimate that there is about 25% underreporting of CNS tumours in the GCCR. This is in contrast to the relatively complete ascertainment of other childhood malignancies (above 95%). Based on 3012 incident cases from 1988 to 1997 the Kaplan-Meier-estimate of 5-year-survival probability is 65% for all CNS tumours and 54…

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on incidence, time of diagnosis and delivery of healthcare among paediatric oncology patients in Germany in 2020: Evi…

2021

ABSTRACT Background The indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer care and timely diagnosis is of increasing concern. We investigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on incidence, time of diagnosis and delivery of healthcare among paediatric oncology patients in Germany in 2020. Methods We analysed incident paediatric cancer cases diagnosed in 0- to 17-year olds in Germany in 2020 using data of the German Childhood Cancer Registry. Absolute numbers and age-standardised incidence rates (ASR) in 2020 were compared to the previous five years (2015–2019). Moreover, we conducted a survey with open-ended questions, gathering perceptions of the diagnostic process and healthcare delive…

Esperienze sfavorevoli infantili ed esiti psicopatologici: cluster analysis su campioni clinici e non clinici mediante la Childhood Experience of Car…

2012

Gli eventi traumatici esperiti durante l’infanzia hanno un’influenza rilevante sulla strutturazione del Sé nascente del bambino (Bifulco & Moran,1998; Jurist et al., 2008; Schimmenti & Bifulco, 2008). L’impatto di tali eventi e i loro possibili esiti psicopatologici variano in maniera significativa in relazione alla presenza simultanea di molteplici e pervasive esperienze negative e all’età in cui esse si verificano (Cook et al., 2005; van der Kolk, 2005). Questo contributo propone un’analisi esplorativa finalizzata ad individuare, attraverso la metodologia della cluster analysis, tipologie rappresentative dei diversi pattern di esperienze sfavorevoli infantili. Vengono, inoltre, analizzate…

Cross-lagged relations between task motivation and performance in arithmetic and literacy in kindergarten

2009

Abstract To examine the cross-lagged relationships between children's task motivation in mathematics and literacy, and their related performance, 139 children aged 5–6 years were examined twice during their kindergarten year. The results showed that only math-related task motivation and arithmetic performance showed cross-lagged relationship: the higher the math-related task motivation children reported in the beginning of the kindergarten year the higher the level of their arithmetic performance at the end of the kindergarten year. Moreover, the higher the level of children's arithmetic performance the more the interest in mathematics children reported later on. Literacy-related task motiv…
