30
What are some biological predispositions to anxiety?
Temperament
-Behavioural inhibition (quiet, withdrawing, and timid behaviour, reluctance to speak)
-Hyper-vigilant (state of neurological arousal in response to novel situations, including interacting with unfamiliar adults
Neurobiological - overactive stress response
31
Explain the temperament prediction video we watched in class
-can predict temperament based on reaction at 4 months old --> can predict outgoingness/shyness
-motor-tension, thrashing of the legs in response to stimulus predicts shyness
-lach of tenstion in response to stimulus = outgoing
*also depends on how parents react to the kids reaction --> gene environment interaction
32
Explain how parenting and parental modeling can positively or negatively reinforce anxiety
-parent sends subtle messages every day in repeated ways where they model reacting to specific situations
Negative: avoidance maintains anxiety, child never learns fears were unwarranted + never learns to cope
Positive: rewards : ex. stay home from school, have a good day, more likely to stay home again

Low psychological autonomy granting
-subtle but consistent ways parents can discourage kids from having their own options/autonomy

What are the three depressive disorders mentioned in the DSM-5?
- Major depressive disorder
- Persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia)
-Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (new to DSM)
37
How has understanding depression in youth evolved?
psychoanalytic theory = kids aren't capable of experiencing depression because they dont have enough superego to experience anger about the world. lol freud
storm and stress = basically just being like all adolescence is turbulence and angst, so everyone is depressed
"why isn't Johnny crying" - maybe depression is expressed differently in kids.
masked depression = everything is depression (withdrawn / acting out = depression)
38
How should you respond to a youth who is saying things like "I'm a loser, no one likes me"
"I can understand why you might feel like ______"
dont say "but", say "because" to provide validation to kid.
then meet need with reassurance / support, ect
39
What depressive disorder has almost identical criteria for children and adults?

-worthlessness
-concentration
-thoughts of death
42
If untreated, how long on average does a depressive episode last?
8 months
43
what is the recurrence pattern of depressive episodes?
if left untreated, depressive episodes will reoccur..
the more you have, the more likely you are to keep getting them
same for adults and kids
that's why early intervention is important... teach kids coping skills = prevent future depression
44
is a depressive episode brought on by a stressor?
the first few, we can usually point to a stressor.
later on, its less obvious and more internally normalized.
smaller causes of depressive episodes
45
fun fact:
negative mens mental health reports have doubled from 2013 to 2018.
das it
46
another fun fact:
big gender difference in diagnosing depression among youth.
mostly women diagnosed
why? (hehe answer bellow)
for kids, the symptom of depressed mood can present as *irritable*, but we lose this with adults..
but there are alot of grouchy cantankerous men who probably have undiagnosed depression because of our understanding of what it looks like.
47
what age does the rate of depression start to increase?
starts around 12 years old... then there's a steep climb to mid adolescence (15-16 years old).
another big jump in cases diagnosed around 15-16, then stabilizes again. (big gender difference for women)
48
not so fun fact:
84% of trans and non binary kids indicated having chronic mental health condition...
- prairie Provences are the worst,
- Quebec is the best
:(
49
another not fun fact:
2/3 of the sample of non binary kids reported self harm / suicidal ideation.
21% attempted.
way higher than population average
50
what are some more sad stats on non binary and trans youth?
substantially higher rates of major depression episode, considered suicide, attempted suicide, feeling under stress, fee discouraged or hopeless

- gender norms / social expectations become more apparent (kids are blissfully unaware)
- identity exploration
- peer evaluation becomes more saturated
- social worth / power
52
why are there higher rates among cis-gender girls compared to cis-gender boys in adolescence and adulthood?
- biological differences (puberty / hormones / birth control)
- stigma about boys talking about mental health
- girls express problems by manipulating, ruminating, gaslighting - lead to depression
- boys solve problems with physical aggression
53
what is the main difference between Major Depression and Persistent depression (dysthymia)?
the chronicity of the depression..
- persistent depressive disorder is more chronic, stable, enduring --- but less severe in terms of symptoms
54
what is the diagnostic criteria for persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia)?

- temper outbursts 3+ times a week for 12 months (cant go symptom free for more than 3 months), 2+ settings, irritable in between..
- kids age 6-18, onset before age 10
59
why did they introduce DMDD into the DSM so quickly & with such specific criteria?
- trying to solve the massive increase of bipolar diagnoses in kids.
- medicating 4,5,6 year olds with bipolar meds isn't good so they tried to conceptualize it differently
60
what are some reasons for the comorbidity between anxiety and depression
[what do they have in common]
- both high in negative affect
- low self esteem / isolation / irritability
- avoidance*
---- if a kid is constantly missing out on regular routine, something is wrong.

3. Learn to make up what we lack - lack confidence
thoughts: I'm weak, I cant do things like others

- withdrawal, low social support
67
family risk factors for depression

"psychosomatic families"
--> what are they

* enmeshed, conflict avoidant
- basically is like if someone in the family is sick, its a manifestation of a sickness in the family
- the control and anxiety placed on the child manifests in sickness.
- family loyalty > individuality
- does not value difference of opinion
82
Family system theory & anorexia
Struggle for autonomy and control
describe
links to a family style that doesn't support autonomy development
child feels ineffective, less confident in self..
I guess those are factors that lead to anorexia.
83
family systems theory - anorexia
passive defiance: what is it
child defies their parents by exerting the control they have, not eating.
--> mostly occurs when its not okay to express a difference of opinion in your family
84
what are some sociocultural influences on eating disorders?

how much the kid internalizes appearance schemas..
questions like "what I look like is an important part of me"
can teach the child that what is on the media isn't real.

--- body energy reduced
EMOTIONAL CHANGES
--- biological markers of depression
--- more emotional ups and downs (lability)
---- small "failures" = stronger emotions
COGNITIVE CHANGES

--- altered perceptions of attractiveness of food
94
What happens in stage 4 of an ED: Severly disordered eating patterns?
- psychological desire to continue food restriction
- biological urge to eat

95
What happens when a person with an ED binges?
(big card, but its mostly intuitive)
- short term relief
- distraction
- feels good (increases serotonin)
- binging negatively reinforced [reduces distressing emotions of hunger]
ALSO
- uncomfortably full
- dissatisfaction with self
- need to compensate
- guilt and fear
the biological and psychological distress of binging usually leads to purging.
(alleviates distress)
96
