{"title":"Special educational needs provision and academic outcomes for children with teacher reported language difficulties at school entry","authors":"Sarah Griffiths, Laura Lucas, Debbie Gooch, C.

Teacher report of language difficulties may therefore help schools identify children that require Special Educational Needs (SEN) provision. Special Educational Needs provision is intended to enable children to reach their academic potential, however the effectiveness of this for children with language difficulties is unknown.We linked teacher‐ratings on a brief language difficulties questionnaire (13‐item) collected in the first year of primary school (N = 7013), with data on SEN provision until age 12–13 and scores on statutory assessments at ages 5–6, 6–7 and 10–11 years from the National Pupil Database (UK). We conducted a preregistered analysis to (a) test the association between teacher‐reported language difficulties and later academic outcomes, (b) identify predictors of subsequent SEN provision for monolingual children with language difficulties and (c) test whether SEN provision is associated with better academic outcomes for these children.Teacher‐reported language difficulties predicted achievement in phonics (rs > 0.41), reading (rs > 0.38), writing (rs > 0.32) and maths (rs > 0.40) assessments up to 7 years later. For those with language difficulties, having an existing diagnosis of a neurodevelopmental condition or sensory impairment was the strongest predictor of SEN registration (OR [95% CI] 8.33 [4.12, 19.24]) and special education placement (OR [95% CI] 18.89 [9.29, 42.01]) during primary school. However, 38% of children registered as having a primary speech, language and communication need, lost this registration during transition to secondary education. We could not estimate the effect of SEN provision on academic outcomes, as the majority of children with high propensity to receive SEN provision did receive provision, and very few children in SEN settings completed statutory assessments.Teacher perceptions of language difficulties at school entry, in the presence of additional risk factors, should prompt SEN provision. Recognition and support for language difficulties should be sustained throughout children's education.","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":"133 37","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141811081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using linear regression, we assessed associations between the Child Opportunity Index 2.0 (COI) at birth, a multidimensional neighborhood measure of childhood opportunity, and ADHD symptoms on the Aberrant Behavior Checklist at mid‐childhood/adolescence.Participants included a total of 524 youth (401 males; 123 females), composed of 246 autistic children (AUT), 85 children with Developmental Delays (DD) without autism, and 193 Typically Developing (TD) children. Mean age was 3.8 years (SD = 0.79) when evaluated at CHARGE and 13.5 years (SD = 3.69) when evaluated at ReCHARGE. Regression analyses revealed COI at birth significantly predicted ADHD symptoms during mid‐childhood/adolescence and early childhood diagnosis modified the COI effect. More specifically, COI significantly predicted ADHD symptoms in the AUT group, but not the TD or DD groups. Additional regression analyses indicated that this interaction was only present in the Social and Economic COI domain. Secondary analyses revealed autistic youth with High and Low Social and Economic COI domain scores had similar levels of ADHD symptoms during early childhood, but by mid‐childhood/adolescence, those with low Social and Economic COI domain scores had higher ADHD symptoms.Among autistic, but not TD or DD youth, poorer neighborhood conditions at birth predict greater ADHD symptoms in later development. These findings have important clinical implications and highlight the need for increased and improved resources in poorer neighborhoods to reduce existing disparities in ADHD, a common neurodevelopmental impairment.","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":" 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141824304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are scarce data‐driven longitudinal studies, using multi‐modal predictors, investigating the chronicity of anxiety symptoms from childhood to young adulthood, particularly in a middle‐income country.2033 youths (ages 6–14 years [Mean age = 10.4 ± 1.94) at Baseline] were enrolled in the Brazilian High‐Risk Cohort for Mental Conditions longitudinal study, and assessed at three timepoints, between 2010 and 2019, using the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders. Confirmatory Factor Analysis provided input to Growth Mixture Models to identify the best fitting trajectory model. Multinomial logistic regression analyses tested the effects of intelligence quotient (IQ), environmental factors and polygenic risk scores on internalizing symptomatology within trajectory class membership.The best model solution identified three classes: high‐decreasing, moderate/low‐stable and low‐increasing symptoms over time. The high‐decreasing class showed a higher incidence of anxiety symptoms at the second time point (Mean age = 13.8 ± 1.93); while anxiety symptoms were highest in the low‐increasing class at the third timepoint (Mean age = 18.35 ± 2.03). Further, lower IQ predicted membership in the high‐decreasing trajectory class (OR = 0.68, 95% CI [0.55, 0.85]), while higher IQ predicted membership in the low‐increasing trajectory class (OR = 1.95, 95% CI [1.42, 2.67]). Finally, females were more likely than males to be in the low‐increasing trajectory class. Polygenic risk scores were not associated with anxiety trajectory class membership.Recognizing that anxiety symptoms follow diverse paths over time will allow for more effective intervention strategies. Specifically, interventions could accommodate children for greater anxiety risk in early childhood (i.e., lower IQ) versus late adolescence (i.e., higher IQ). That said, the emotional needs of girls in late adolescence should be monitored, regardless of their cognitive abilities or high achievements.","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141829089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dietary participants were allowed to add or switch to CAU treatment after 5 weeks. The primary outcome was a 5‐point ordinal measure of improvement based on both parent and teacher ratings on ADHD and dysregulation problems, determined after 1 year prospective follow‐up. Ordinal regression analyses and linear mixed models analyses were conducted on an intention to treat basis. In addition, as‐treated analyses were performed. The trial is closed and registered in the Dutch trial registry, number NL5324.At 1 year follow‐up, 24% of the participants still complied with the ED and 37% still complied with the HD. In the ED (+CAU) trajectory, fewer participants showed (partial) improvement after 1‐year prospective follow‐up compared to the HD (+CAU) trajectory (47% vs. 64%, χ2 (4, N = 152) = 11.97, p = 0.018). The HD (+CAU) ‐ but not ED (+CAU) ‐ trajectory had comparable 1‐year outcomes compared to the non‐randomized CAU‐trajectory. Results for secondary outcomes (e.g. health, parental stress) did not differ between the ED (+CAU) and HD (+CAU) trajectories. The prevalence of psychostimulant use was lower in the ED (+CAU) and HD (+CAU) trajectories compared to the non‐randomized CAU‐trajectory (38%, 45%, 78%, respectively). Predictors for long‐term benefit from dietary treatments included high initial severity of ADHD problems, low severity of emotional problems and sufficient parental mental resources.In line with the short‐term effects, prospective 1‐year follow‐up outcomes are in favor of treatment with HD and not ED.

Do characteristics of Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) in youth mental health research align with transparency and replication prerequisites as necessary conditions for translation? Relatedly, the question is addressed whether co‐authorship should be assigned to youth involved in the study.Here we address these questions re‐visiting 50 PPI studies included in two recent systematic reviews of PPI on characteristics that are pertinent to questions about transparency, replicability, translatability, and co‐authorship in PPI research.Almost two‐third of the studies on youth mental health incorporating PPI translate their results to policy or practice, mostly as recommendations but sometimes also by dissemination of (online) interventions. At the same time the authors of a substantial majority of the studies (70%) also suggest the need for further work on their results, for example, in randomized controlled trials to validate the outcome of their exploratory inquiry. Only a quarter of the studies using PPI met the conditions for replicability, thus a majority of the PPI studies suggest premature translation of results. Authorship to involved participants was assigned in 24% of the studies.“Anything goes” for PPI in an exploratory stage to generate fruitful hypotheses. Translation of the findings of PPI studies however require a firm evidence base of replicated results. Radical merging of research and action in participatory action research seems incompatible with replicable and therefore translatable inquiry. Assigning co‐authorship to PPI representatives is often at odds with current guidelines for authorship. More evidence from randomized trials on the translational impact of PPI is needed before grant foundations should require PPI in grant proposals.","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":"80 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141682657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Trauma is defined as actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence while adversity more broadly describes difficult or challenging situations including abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. Irritability [or aggression] is symptom of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and may arise in response to trauma or traumatic events. Responses to negative early life experiences may differ based on the type of exposure, for example, threat (abuse) versus deprivation (neglect), with implications for development of psychopathology. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the relation between exposure to threat and deprivation, and irritability in a predominantly Hispanic/Latin sample. We hypothesized unique effects of threat versus deprivation on irritability.We investigated relations between threat and deprivation aspects of childhood trauma (within each dimension) and later irritability in a sample of n = 48 (26F) youth ages 9–19 (Mage = 14.89, SD = 2.04) recruited based on trauma exposure. Multivariate regression tested the unique effects of threat and deprivation (measurement: Childhood Trauma Questionnaire) on irritability (measurement: Affective Reactivity Index).Greater threat exposure was associated with more severe self‐reported irritability, F(1,46) = 8.64, B = 0.40, R2 = 0.14, p = 0.005. Findings remained significant after controlling for values of excessive influence and the non‐significant effect of gender (B = 0.25, t = 1.88, p = 0.067). When looking at the unique effects of threat adjusted for deprivation, the relation between threat and irritability remained significant, B = 0.35, t = 2.45, p = 0.019. There was no significant association between deprivation and irritability, F(1,46) = 3.35, B = 0.26, R2 = 0.05, p = 0.074.Exposure to threat, but not deprivation, may increase risk for irritability in youth. Early life experiences should be considered in assessment and treatment of youth with clinically impairing irritability. Transdiagnostic treatments targeting irritability should be tested for youth with trauma exposure who do not meet criteria for post‐traumatic stress disorder.","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":"64 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141696298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were assessed for symptoms of social anxiety, generalised anxiety, depression and suicidal ideation at baseline, 1‐year follow‐up, and 2‐year follow‐up. We conducted multiple linear regression analyses and mediation analyses to examine whether baseline social anxiety was associated with 2‐year suicidal ideation and depressive symptoms (excluding suicide‐related items), and whether these associations were mediated by 1‐year depressive symptoms. The study was preregistered on the Open Science Framework.Results from multiple linear regression analyses indicated that baseline social anxiety symptoms were associated with 2‐year suicidal ideation (β = 0.07, p < 0.05, 95% CI [0.02, 0.12]) and 2‐year depressive symptoms (β = 0.08, p < 0.05, 95% CI [0.02, 0.13]), after controlling for baseline predicted variable. Furthermore, 1‐year depressive symptoms significantly mediated the relationship between baseline social anxiety symptoms and 2‐year suicidal ideation (β = 0.04, 95% CI [0.02, 0.05]), and the relationship between baseline social anxiety symptoms and 2‐year depressive symptoms (β = 0.06, 95% CI [0.03, 0.08]) after adjusting for age, sex, and other covariates.We found evidence that baseline social anxiety symptoms were associated with 2‐year suicidal ideation and 2‐year depressive symptoms via 1‐year depressive symptoms in non‐clinical adolescents.
