Closing the research-to-practice gap via population-based validation of the MAPS-EASI 2.0 early childhood irritability screener for translation to clinical use.","authors":"Lauren S Wakschlag, Yudong Zhang, Marie E Heffernan, Leigha A MacNeill, Erin O Peterson, Susan Friedland, Aliza Jaffe Sass, Justin D Smith, Matthew M Davis, Jillian Lee Wiggins","doi":"10.1037/tps0000428","DOIUrl":"10.1037/tps0000428","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Dysregulated irritability is the most robust early childhood transdiagnostic predictor of psychopathology. However, this evidence has failed to translate to practice due to a dearth of efficient, developmentally-based screening tools. Drawing on the well-validated Multidimensional Assessment Profiles (MAPS) Temper Loss Scale, early feasibility testing of a preliminary clinical screener (MAPS-Early Assessment Screener for Irritability; MAPS-EASI 1.0) was well-received. However, large-scale clinical implementation requires enhanced precision, with age-banded norms psychometrically derived in a large representative sample. Here, we aim to optimize MAPS-EASI for routine pediatric care via psychometric validation of the MAPS-EASI 2.0 Irritability Screener and Impact Rating. Data on 2-5-year-old children (N=1,508) were utilized to derive generalizable thresholds for MAPS-EASI 2.0. Analyses were guided by timing of toddler (<i>n</i>=463) and preschool (<i>n</i>=1045) age well-child visits, generating two Irritability Screener forms: (<b>1</b>) 3 items for toddlers (18-33 months); and (<b>2</b>) 4 items for preschoolers (34-66 months). Irritability Screener severity cut-points were established with good-to-excellent classification (areas under the curve=0.84, 0.88), sensitivity (0.83, 0.82), and specificity (0.72, 0.79), for toddlers and preschoolers respectively. Over-identification was reduced by including impairment in the screening algorithm via the MAPS-EASI 2.0 Impact Rating. The clinical threshold for this integrative algorithm identified 15% and 18% of toddlers and preschoolers, respectively; these rates align with established population prevalence. Pragmatic, transdiagnostic developmental screening tools for routine care may accelerate real-world impact of irritability science for early mental health.</p>","PeriodicalId":29959,"journal":{"name":"Translational Issues in Psychological Science","volume":"10 4","pages":"435-448"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12456273/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145138375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In adults, deliberate ER is often experienced as a self-narrative, such as reappraising a negatively perceived scenario. However, researchers have yet to study how young children articulate deliberate ER strategies, whether these strategies relate to real-time ER neurophysiological processes, and how these strategies are associated with psychopathology. We examined preschool-aged children's verbally articulated ER strategies prior to a frustration challenge, and related these strategies to subsequent real-time neural and physiological responses to frustration and psychopathology in a sample of 59 children. We categorized children's responses into two groups: those who articulated any emotion regulation strategy (i.e., \"strategy\") and those who did not articulate a strategy (i.e., \"no strategy\"). We found that about 70% of children in our sample were able to articulate an emotion regulation strategy. Children who articulated a strategy had lower psychophysiological stress during a frustration task compared to children who did not articulate a strategy. Children who articulated a strategy also had fewer ADHD symptoms compared to peers who did not, but also significantly smaller variability of symptoms, and when these unequal variances were taken into account the difference was outside of the traditional p < .05 threshold for significance. To our knowledge, this pilot study is the first to show that emotion regulation strategy articulation may be an emerging skill in early childhood connected to successful modulation of physiological stress and fewer symptoms of psychopathology.</p>","PeriodicalId":29959,"journal":{"name":"Translational Issues in Psychological Science","volume":"10 4","pages":"417-434"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12459667/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145151161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 710 block faces on 355 street segments were coded in Detroit, MI. We tested reliability between coders on 20% of the sample (71 segments (i.e., two sides of the street); 146 block faces (i.e., one side of the street) and found reliability was adequate at the individual lot (Kappas ranged from .60 - 1), block face (ICCs ranged from .94 -.98), and segment (ICCs ranged from .96-.98) levels, with the sole exception of graffiti (for which ICCs were typically in the .56 to .57 range). Moreover, LAND's score was positively correlated with number of vacant lots, area deprivation, and resident perceptions of their neighborhood. Overall, LAND evidence higher levels of reliability than previous physical neighborhood disorder virtual audits and evidenced significant correlations across several known correlates of physical neighborhood disorder, thus highlighting LAND as an effective virtual audit tool in the study of physical neighborhood disorder.</p>","PeriodicalId":29959,"journal":{"name":"Translational Issues in Psychological Science","volume":"10 3","pages":"262-275"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12459647/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145151195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cognitive interviewing is an important technique used to understand how people perceive items on a questionnaire. The current study utilized cognitive interviewing and sought to examine the content validity of a potentially ambiguous item, \"my partner insisted on sex\", from the Revised Conflict Tactics Scales, a measure of intimate partner violence. Participants were mostly college students at a local Midwestern University (N = 39). Participants responses were qualitatively coded, and the following themes emerged: coercion (42.68%) (physical (4.88%) and verbal (37.80%)), consent (30.49%), compliance (4.88%), hesitancy to have sex (13.41%), personal experiences (6.10%), and perpetrator's intent (2.44%). The results show that most participants viewed the item, \"partner insisted on sex\" as a verbally coercive tactic; this theme was mentioned more often than non-coercive themes. Participants were also asked to rate quantitatively how consensual they considered the insistence item, and comparison items representing other tactic types. Three tactics were rated as clearly nonconsensual using a <i>p</i> < .05 standard, including the insistence item (<i>M</i> = 1.946, <i>SD</i> = 1.70) with a range from \"0-not consensual at all\" to \"7-completely consensual\".

AYAs use social media for socialization, connection, and expression, as well as to obtain news and information. Adolescence and young adulthood also represent developmental periods characterized by the emergence of risk behaviors and many forms of psychopathology. Given that risk behaviors and mental health depictions are often displayed and observed online, social media platforms have become an optimal research tool to examine AYA behaviors that may not be visible offline. Social media platforms have the potential to increase recruitment and retention, especially among hard-to-reach, and understudied youth, and to connect AYA with resources for risk behaviors and mental health in a more naturalistic setting. Despite these advantages, the limited consensus on social media ethics across institutions and internal review boards, and the rapidly evolving features on each platform has made it difficult to develop study protocols, navigate and adapt to platform changes, and predict ethical issues that may arise in the context of research. Thus, the purpose of this manuscript is to discuss ethical considerations specific to AYA in social media research. Two research approaches, self-report and observational, are discussed with a focus on informed consent, privacy, and confidentiality. The goal of this manuscript is to highlight the nuances associated with social media research, and the implications for the promotion of ethical practices when adopting social media as a research tool to improve our understanding of AYA behavior.</p>","PeriodicalId":29959,"journal":{"name":"Translational Issues in Psychological Science","volume":"10 2","pages":"123-134"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11784637/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143081119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
