“…Cognitive control therapy (Santostefano, 1985) is a potentially rich area of intervention for children who manifest early precursors of BPD. The goal of cognitive control therapy is to facilitate the integration among cognition, internal, and external experiences (Santostefano, 1995).…”

Potential precursors to borderline personality disorder (BPD) were investigated in a sample of 185 maltreated and 175 nonmaltreated school-aged children attending a summer camp research program. Self-report, peer-report, and counselor-report measures were utilized to assess developmental constructs conceptualized to constitute vulnerability for later emerging BPD. These areas, including personality features, representational models of self, parent, and peers, interpersonal relationship difficulties with peers and adults, and suicidal/self-harm behavior, were used to develop a BPD precursors composite. Additionally, the efficiency of three attention networks was assessed with a computerized task. Maltreated children had higher mean scores on the BPD precursors composite, and children classified as having high levels of these precursors were more prevalent in the maltreatment group. No maltreatment group differences were found for the efficiency of the three attention networks; however, children with high levels of BPD precursors evinced less efficient processing of the conflict attention network, comparable to findings observed among adult patients with BPD. Child maltreatment and efficiency of the conflict attention network independently predicted scores on the BPD precursors composite. Experiential and biological contributions to risk for BPD and recommendations for prevention and intervention are discussed.

“…Cognitive Control Therapy (CCT) was developed several decades ago and is designed to reorganize dysfunctional cognitive controls and strategies by teaching children how to think differently, and enhance self-observation and regulation [18][19][20]. Adnams et al [19] piloted CCT techniques in 10 children (mean age of 8 years) with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome in classrooms in South Africa.…”

Background: Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is a complicated disability resulting in a diverse, highneeds population for whom intervention is critical to optimize functional competence and reduce the emergence of adverse outcomes. Researchers have been evaluating intervention efforts for FASD to inform practice and policy decision-making. Objective: The current review provides a synopsis of the current state of evidence for intervention research in FASD, with consideration of how our growing understanding of the unique needs of individuals with FASD might inform future intervention initiatives. Method: A comprehensive literature review was conducted across a number of databases using multiple search terms linking FASD and intervention. Results: Existing evidence-based interventions are limited and focus predominantly on the school-aged population, thereby neglecting adolescents and adults. Future research efforts are needed to support individuals with FASD across the entire lifespan, particularly during transitions and for individuals involved in the legal system. Conclusion: As the field of FASD continues to grow, so must the quality and quantity of intervention research. It is through cross-discipline intervention research efforts that the evidence supporting best practices will be established, and policies can be implemented to reflect best uses of available funds to support this population.

“…At a somewhat higher level, the child shows a failure in self-differentiation, such as a poorly boundaried and structured coherent body image (Santostefano, 1985). The lack of a sufficiently clear, stable, boundaried bodily self causes them to feel particularly vulnerable to intrusion, as well as to be insensitive to the body boundaries of others.…”
