Introduction

Co-rumination, characterized by excessively discussing problems and dwelling on negative affect within a dyadic friendship, has been associated with adolescents' symptoms of depression, anxiety and perceived stress-collectively referred to as psychological distress. This study explored whether co-rumination moderates the association between perceived best friend support and psychological distress.

Methods

Background: Individuals impacted by adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are at greater risk of developing obesity, however, few studies have prospectively measured ACEs and obesity during childhood. Associations with the adoption of obesogenic behaviours during childhood, which directly contribute to obesity are also understudied.

Objective: To examine associations between individual and cumulative ACEs, obesity, and obesogenic behaviours during childhood.

In het onderzoek zijn de volgende onderzoeksvragen onderzocht:

1) Wat zijn belangrijke en effectieve aangrijpingspunten in de behandeling wanneer het ouderschap en het jonge kind onderdeel zijn van de behandeling van ouders met psychische stoornissen, om de cyclus van intergenerationele overdracht te doorbreken? (Hoofdstuk 2)

This pilot study aimed to understand the moderating role of context processing (i.e. encoding and memorizing) when mothers are confronted with threatening stimuli and undergo physiologic monitoring in order to understand a possible mechanism favoring intergenerational transmission of posttraumatic stress. Thirty-one mothers (M age = 33.87 years, SD = 4.14) and their toddlers (M age = 22.66 months, SD = 7.01) participated in the study. Mothers reported adverse life events (ALE), their current posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), as well as regulatory problems of their toddler.
