“…This is in keeping with previous research both in the same geographical area (Maguire et al 2008;Mowlds et al 2010) and elsewhere (Leverich et al 2002;Garno et al 2005;Moskvina et al 2007). The parental bonding category of 'affectionless control', characterised by 'low care and high protection', was the most common parenting experience.…”

“…A few studies have explored the association between childhood trauma and outcomes in BD, concluding that a trauma history is associated with an earlier onset of illness (McIntyre et al 2008), increased hospital admissions, higher levels of inter-episode depression (Maguire et al 2008;Mowlds et al 2010), faster cycling frequencies and an increased number of BD episodes (Nolen et al 2004). Childhood trauma experiences have also been associated with increased rates of suicidal attempts (Brown et al 2005;McIntyre et al 2008), auditory hallucinations (Hammersley et al 2003), mania (Levitan et al 1998) and co-morbid alcohol and substance abuse (Leverich et al 2002;Brown et al 2005).…”

Objectives. This study explores rates of a history of childhood trauma in adult patients with bipolar disorder and depression and the impact of such trauma and parental bonding patterns on depressive mood and interpersonal functioning at the time of assessment. Methods.A cross-sectional design was used and a sample of 49 participants was recruited from a mental health outpatient service in Northern Ireland. Data were subject to correlations, one-way analysis of variance and hierarchal regression analyses. A cut-off point of r = ± 0.25 was used to select variables for inclusion in the hierarchal regression analyses.Results. High rates of childhood trauma were present in both samples: 74% in bipolar disorder and 82% in depression. Childhood trauma and poor parental bonding (with mother) were significant predictors of higher rates of current inter-episode depressive mood and interpersonal difficulties.Conclusions. This finding adds to the evidence that routine assessment of early childhood experience is likely to prove helpful in clinical care.

“…The trauma during childhood is delicate to handle, even when addressed by a specific instrument as CTQ, it is known that the accounts of these experiences are influenced by memory bias, resulting in underestimation or overestimation of this exhibition. The other side, the findings related a correlation between the early beginning of mood disorders and the scores of CTQ 30 as well as the lack of relationship between autobiographical memory and childhood trauma scores 32 .…”

Objective: To verify early experiences of childhood abuse and neglect among young with bipolar disorder (BD), major depression (MDD), and controls. Method: Case-control study nested to a population-based cross-sectional study. The diagnosis was performed via the structured clinical interview for DSM--IV Axis I Disorders (SCID). Traumatic events were analyzed using the Portuguese version -Questionário sobre Traumas na Infância (CTQ) -based on the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire. Results: The sample comprised 231 adolescents with 95 individuals in the control group, 82 with MDD and 54 with BD (32 of type I and 22 type II). The prevalence of trauma or violence in childhood was 42.2%; among those, 54.7% had BD, 62.2% had MDD and 18.1% were in the control group. Young people with BD or MDD obtained higher means in total CTQ and among their components when compared with those in the control group. Discussion: Reports on early traumatic experiences were more frequent among young people with mood disorders than in the general population, corroborating the literature on the subject. In this sense, the traumatic experiences during childhood seemed to contribute to the onset of the disorder.Konradt CE, et al. / Rev Psiq Clín. 2013;40(3):93-6 Keywords: Early trauma, traumatic experience, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, major depression. ResumoObjetivo: Verificar vivências precoces de abuso e negligência na infância entre jovens com transtorno bipolar (TB), transtorno depressivo maior (TDM) e controles populacionais. Método: Estudo de caso-controle aninhado a um estudo transversal de base populacional. A confirmação do diagnóstico foi realizada por meio de entrevista clínica estruturada para transtornos de eixo I do DSM-IV (SCID) e os eventos traumáticos foram verificados pelo Questionário sobre traumas na infância (CTQ). Resultados: A amostra foi composta por 231 jovens, sendo 95 indivíduos no grupo controle, 82 com TDM e 54 com TB (32 do tipo I e 22 do tipo II). A prevalência de trauma na infância foi de 42,2%, sendo 54,7% entre aqueles com TB, 62,2% entre os jovens com TDM e 18,1% entre o grupo controle. Os jovens com TB ou TDM apresentaram maiores médias no CTQ total e entre seus componentes quando comparados aos jovens do grupo controle, exceto o componente abuso sexual, em que se observou diferença estatística apenas entre o grupo controle e o grupo de jovens com transtorno bipolar. Conclusão: O relato de vivências traumáticas precoces foi mais presente entre os jovens com transtornos de humor do que na população geral, confirmando o que a literatura traz sobre o tema. Nesse sentido, as vivências de trauma na infância parecem contribuir para o aparecimento dos transtornos de humor.

“…The possible influence of this variable on the retrieval of emotional memories, more specifically of AMs associated to cues with positive and negative valences, has been already in dicated by Tzemou and Birchwood (2007). However, not all authors obtained results consistent with this hypothe sis (Mowlds et al, 2009). The activation of strategic in hibition to avoid harmful memories in the VR context seems quite unlikely.…”

“…Other authors (Tze mou & Birchwood, 2007) proposed that overgeneral memory result from the strategic inhibition and func tional avoidance of traumatic events. However, this af fect regulation hypothesis was not supported by Mowlds et al (2009), as these authors did not find a significant relation between childhood trauma and AM specificity. For Mansell and Lam (2004), the difficulties in the re trieval of specific AMs arise from the discordant memo ries of goalsrelated activities, and for Boulanger et al (2013) and Kim et al (2014) these difficulties are related to executive function impairment.…”

Abstract:This study aimed to examine whether patients with bipolar disorder (BD) perceive differences in the encoding and retrieving of autobiographical information related to events with different emotional valence. For this purpose, an experimental task based on the virtual reality paradigm was administrated to 14 euthymic BD patients and 23 healthy controls. All participants also had a neuropsychological assessment and completed selfreport questionnaires as to mood and psychopathological symptoms. BD patients, when compared to adult controls, recognized more information associated with negative lifelike events and retrieved less information related to positive events. We suggest that changes in processing negative information are caused by the activation of maladaptive emotionregulation processes, and changes in processing positive information arise from insufficient elaboration of memory traces or from suppression/distortion processes acting during retrieval.Keywords: Bipolar disorder; autobiographical memory; emotional memory; virtual reality, neuropsychological assessment. Los pacientes con trastorno bipolar presentan sesgo emocional en memorias de eventos simuladores de la realidad: Estudio basado en el paradigma de realidad virtualResumen: Nuestro objetivo era verificar si los pacientes con trastorno bipolar experimentan alteraciones en la codificación y recuperación de la información autobiográfica, referente a eventos con diferentes valencias emocionales. Una tarea experimental basada en el paradigma de realidad virtual fue administrada a 14 pacientes bipolares eutímicos y 23 adultos sanos. Los partici pantes también fueron objeto de evaluación neuropsicológica y completaron los cuestionarios de autoinforme relativos al estado de ánimo y síntomas psicopatológicos. Los pacientes bipolares, en comparación con los adultos sanos, reconocieron más infor mación asociada a eventos negativos y recuperaron menos información referente a eventos positivos. Se sugiere que las altera ciones en el procesamiento de la información negativa son causadas por la activación de los procesos de regulación emocional desadaptativos, y que las alteraciones en el procesamiento de la información positiva surgen de la elaboración insuficiente de rasgos mnésicos o de procesos de supresión/distorsión que actúan durante la recuperación.
