Models testing cumulative versus specificity by adversity type to predict youth internalizing and externalizing
Source publication
Associations between adversity and youth psychopathology likely vary based on the types and timing of experiences. Major theories suggest that the impact of childhood adversity may either be cumulative in type (the more types of adversity, the worse outcomes) or in timing (the longer exposure, the worse outcomes) or, alternatively, specific concern...

Context 1
... the type-specific SLCMA model predicting internalizing symptoms, three variables -cumulative, parental stress, and low collective efficacy -were selected in the first stage of SLCMA (Figure 3c), whereby the cumulative score of all adversities across childhood explained the greatest proportion of variance in the model (r 2 = 1.18%) followed by parental stress (r 2 = 0.29%) and low collective efficacy (r 2 = 0.66%) ( Table 2). Post-selection inference found that the cumulative effect, parental stress, and low collective efficacy significantly predicted adolescent internalizing symptoms (Table 6). These findings suggest that a cumulative score that captures exposure to all the adversities across ages 1-9 explained the most variance in youth internalizing symptoms. ...Context 2
... the type-specific SLCMA model predicting externalizing behaviors, three variables -cumulative (r 2 = 1.16%), psychological aggression (r 2 = 2.48%), and material hardship (r 2 = 0.50%) were selected in the first stage of SLCMA (Figure 3c). Post-selection inference found that the cumulative effect of all types of adversity as well as psychological aggression significantly predicted youth externalizing behaviors (Table 6). These findings suggest that a cumulative score that captures exposure to all the adversities across ages 1-9 explained the most variance in youth externalizing symptoms. ...Similar publications

This study examined the prevalence and correlates of mental disorders among youth in Kumasi, Ghana, through a community-based cross-sectional survey. 672 urban participants aged 6–17 years were surveyed. Mental disorders were screened using Rutter’s A2 Scale for Parent Assessment of Child Behaviour, with diagnoses confirmed by the Kiddie-Schedule f...
