The relationship between parental alcohol dependence (with and without comorbid psychopathology) and adolescent psychopathology was examined in a sample of 665 13-17 year-old adolescents and their parents. Results indicated that adolescents who had parents diagnosed with alcohol dependence only did not significantly differ from adolescents who had parents with no psychopathology in regard to any of the measures of psychological symptomatology (substance use, conduct disorder, and depression) or clinical diagnoses (alcohol dependence, marijuana dependence, conduct disorder, or depression) assessed. In contrast, adolescents who had parents diagnosed with alcohol dependence and either comorbid drug dependence or depression were more likely to exhibit higher levels of psychological symptomatology. In addition, adolescents who had parents diagnosed with alcohol dependence, depression, and drug dependence were most likely to exhibit psychological problems. These findings underscore the importance of considering parental comorbid psychopathology when examining the relationship between parental alcoholism and offspring adjustment.KEY WORDS: comorbidity; substance abuse; conduct disorder; depression; COAs; adolescence.Previous research has indicated that children of alcoholic parents (COAs) are at an increased risk for many psychological problems during childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. For example, COAs have been found to have an elevated risk for the development of externalizing problems such as conduct disorder, oppositional disorder, delinquency, and attention deficit disorder (Earls, Reich,

Quality-of-life assessment in children and adolescents with asthma

Health-related quality of life has become an essential part of health outcome measurement in chronic disorders. However, it is only recently that health professionals have focused on quality-of-life assessment in children and adolescents. Several generic, as well as the asthma-specific quality-of-life instruments specifically designed for use in children and adolescents are reviewed in this article with particular regard to the conceptual and methodological features of the measures and their applicability in clinical studies. The recently published Child Health Questionnaire is a useful generic instrument to comprehensively assess quality of life, in particular when comparing young people with different chronic disorders. The Pediatric Asthma Quality-of-life Questionnaire has shown responsiveness to change over time, but it lacks age-specificity with regard to psychosocial issues and comprehensiveness of quality-of-life assessment. In contrast, the Childhood Asthma Questionnaire provides three different versions for different target ages. However, its generic part is not reflective of the respondent's health status. The other asthma-specific instruments have major conceptual deficiencies when used as a single measure for quality-of-life assessment. In the absence of a single ideal instrument, the use of batteries of quality-of-life instruments is therefore recommended and further research is required to identify the impact that age and developmental status have on quality-of-life assessment.

“…A meta-analysis of cross-informant agreement of child and adolescent behavioral and emotional problems indicated that the mean correlation between parent and teacher was .27 (Achenbach, McConaughy, & Howell, 1987). Agreement between parents, teachers, and children tends to be better for externalizing than internalizing symptoms (Breslau, Davis, & Prabucki, 1988;Briggs, Carter, & SchwabStone, 1993;Cytryn, McKnew, & Bunney, 1980;Edelbrock, Costello, DUlcan, Conover, & Kalas, 1986;Hodges, 1990;Jensen, Traylor, Xenakis, & Davis, 1988;Orvaschel, Weissman, Padian, & Lowe, 1981;Reich, Herjanic, Welner, & Ghancy, 1982). Agreement patterns appear to differ based on the gender of the child (Achenbach & Edelbrock, 1979;Jensen, Xenakis, Davis, & DeGroot, 1988).…”

The Child Behavior Checklist's (CBCL) applicability to a sample of 105 Russian 9- and 10-year-old children was evaluated by examining the internal consistency of Russian adaptations of parent and teacher report forms. In addition, child behavior scores were correlated with child report of internalizing symptoms and maternal reports of their own internalizing symptoms and general family functioning. Finally, rates of child behavior problems and patterns of interrater agreement were compared with U.S. normative data. The psychometric properties of the adaptations demonstrate the adequacy of these instruments for use in Russia. Internal consistency and interrater agreement were generally comparable to estimates obtained in U.S. normative samples. Further, an exploration of the construct validity of the Russian versions of the CBCL and Teacher Report Form (TRF) lends additional support to the adequacy of these instrument.
