“…The original empirical syndrome scales for the CBCL that were used in our previous study, were based on multivariate statistical analysis on data from large samples. To fit more closely with the clinical-diagnostic approach represented by the DSM (APA, 2006), six new DSM-IV scales were recently constructed: Affective Problems, Anxiety Problems, Somatic Problems, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Problems (ADH), Oppositional Defiant Problems (OD), and Conduct Problems (CD) (Achenbach and Dumenci, 2001;Achenbach et al, 2003).…”

Background: To clarify the distinction between anxiety and depression, the tripartite model was introduced. According to this model, physiological hyperarousal (PH, i.e. autonomic hyperactivity) is specific for anxiety and not depression. Research on the relation between anxiety, depression and physiological measures representing arousal is lacking. Methods: Parent-and self-reported anxiety and depressive problems were assessed using the CBCL and RCADS. Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability in the low frequency (HRV LF) and respiratory sinus arrythmia (RSA) were used as indices for autonomic arousal. Results: Parent-reported anxiety was associated with low RSA in supine posture. This association was also found for self-reported anxiety problems, but only in boys. These findings point towards high arousal in anxiety. Self-reported depressive problems were associated with low HRV LF in standing posture and high RSA in supine posture in boys, pointing towards low arousal in depression. However, self-reported depressive problems were also associated with high HR in standing posture and with low HRV LF in supine posture in girls, suggesting high arousal in depression. Limitations: Although HRV LF in standing posture is primarily sympathetically mediated, and HRV LF in supine posture is primarily vagally mediated, the association between HRV LF and sympathetic versus vagal function is not exclusive. Thus, HRV LF measures are merely approaches of high or low arousal. Conclusions: Some evidence was found for hyperarousal in anxiety, but also for hyperarousal in depression. Apparently, the idea of hyperarousal in anxiety and not in depression is too simple to reflect the more complex reality.

“…To fit more closely to the clinical diagnostic approach, represented by the DSM [7], the following DSM-IV scales were recently constructed for the CBCL and its derivatives [4,5]: Affective Problems, Anxiety Problems, Somatic Problems, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Problems, Oppositional Defiant Problems, and Conduct Problems. These CBCL/YSR DSM-IV scales are constructed based on the opinion of experts from 11 different countries from all over the world.…”

“…Research has suggested that maladaptive functioning in childhood and adolescence falls into two categories of disorders: internalizing and externalizing (Achenbach, 1991;Achenbach & Dumenci, 2001). The current study focused only on adolescents' perceptions of their internalizing behavior problems like depression, anxiety, and social withdrawal, which were shown to increase in prevalence during adolescence and continue to increase into adulthood (Lee & Hankin, 2009;Steinberg & Morris, 2001).…”

The study examined adolescents' secure attachment with both versus one parent, for deeper understanding of adolescents' perceptions of their socioemotional adjustment. Specifically, the current study aimed to identify different attachment profiles with father and mother among 203 adolescents aged 15 -17 years and to examine whether these profiles associated differently with their self-rated peer-network loneliness and peer-dyadic loneliness, positive and negative affect, and internalizing behavior problems. Descriptive statistics demonstrated that more adolescents were classified as securely attached to mothers than to fathers. No significant associations emerged between adolescents' sex and attachment classification distributions with mothers or fathers. Using k-means clustering methods, four distinct clusters emerged: secure attachment to both parents/to neither/to only father/to only mother. Tukey HSD and Scheffe procedures validated the attachment clusters, revealing significant inter-cluster differences on all of the adolescents' socioemotional measures. The current results also highlighted that the group of adolescents who felt securely attached to both parents was least vulnerable to experiencing socioemotional difficulties. In addition, secure attachment only to one's mother and not to one's father did not seem to act as a protective factor for these adolescents, with the exception of protection from peer-dyadic loneliness. Discussion focused on understanding the possible contribution of parent-adolescent secure attachment among these subgroups of typically developing adolescents.
