Examining the role of genetic risk and longitudinal transmission processes underlying maternal parenting and psychopathology and childrenâs ADHD symptoms and aggression: utilizing the advantages of a prospective adoption design
Although genetic factors may contribute to initial liability for ADHD onset, there is growing evidence of the potential importance of the rearing environment on the developmental course of ADHD symptomatology. However, associations between family-level variables (maternal hostility, maternal depressive symptoms) and child behaviors (developmental course of ADHD and aggression) may be explained by genes that are shared by biologically related parents and children. Furthermore, ADHD symptoms and aggression commonly co-occur: it is important to consider both simultaneously to have a better understanding of processes underlying the developmental course of ADHD and aggression. To addresses these issues, we employed a longitudinal genetically sensitive parentâoffspring adoption design. Analyses were conducted using Cohort I (nâ=â340) of the Early Growth and Development Study with cross-validation analyses conducted with Cohort II (nâ=â178). Adoptive mother hostility, but not depression, was associated with later child ADHD symptoms and aggression. Mothers and their adopted children were genetically unrelated, removing passive rGE as a possible explanation. Early child impulsivity/activation was associated with later ADHD symptoms and aggression. Child impulsivity/activation was also associated with maternal hostility, with some evidence for evocative gene-environment correlation processes on adoptive mother depressive symptoms. This study provides novel insights into family-based environmental influences on child ADHD and aggression symptoms, independent of shared parental genetic factors, implications of which are further explicated in the discussion

Als wetenschap iets anders zegt dan intuĂŻtie: Het geringe effect van sociale vaardigheidstraining bij kinderen met ASS
Sociale vaardigheidstrainingen (SoVaâs) worden in de klinische praktijk in allerlei vormen en op allerlei plaatsen ingezet om de sociaal-communicatieve vaardigheden van kinderen met een autismespectrumstoornis (ASS) te verbeteren. Onder ouders is de vraag naar deze trainingen groot, maar wetenschappelijk onderzoek leidt niet tot een eenduidige conclusie over de effectiviteit ervan. Uit het ESTIA-onderzoek blijkt een minimaal effect van de SoVa-groepstraining. Het is belangrijk dat behandelaars dit beperkte effect afzetten tegen de enorme investering van kinderen, ouders, leerkrachten en therapeuten. De hier beschreven botsing tussen intuĂŻtie en wetenschap moet eigenlijk gevolgen hebben voor de klinische praktijk
