The role of emotional responses and physiological reactivity in the martial conflict-child functioning link

Article Abstract:

Children's emotional responses and skin conductance level reactivity (SCLR) were examined as mediators and moderators in the associations between marital conflict and children's externalizing, internalizing, and cognitive problems. The results suggested the first empirical demonstration of SCLR to stimulated conflict as a vulnerability factor and pathway of effects in the association between marital conflict and child functioning.

Children's subjective emotional reactivity to affective pictures: Gender differences and their antisocial correlates in an unselected sample of 7-11- year-olds

Article Abstract:

The subjective ratings of emotional reactivity in children are examined for the relationship between arousal and valence, gender differences and its association with measures of antisocial behaviour. The differential emotional reactivity of children above cut-off on measures of antisocial behaviour suggested these symptoms to be associated with a combination of increased reward and decreased punishment sensitivity.

Readiness to recover in adolescent anorexia nervosa: prediction of hospital admission

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to determine if motivation to change in anorexia nervosa during treatment is a predictor of hospitalisation in adolescent patients. Results reveal that low-motivation to change, depressive symptomatology and some Eating Disorders Inventory (EDI) scales are related to the necessity of hospital admission in adolescent patients with anorexia nervosa.
