“…The findings of the present study suggest that the experimental group showed a statistically significant decrease in anxiety and depression scores, and an increase in self-esteem scores ( P < 0.001) over the 6-mo interval, indicating that the psychosocial intervention had a positive impact on the children. These findings are supported by previous studies which showed similar outcomes[ 32 - 36 ]. In this context, a recent study by Haugland et al [ 37 ] found that school-based CBT delivered by a school nurse was effective in reducing the anxiety among adolescents[ 37 ].…”

BACKGROUND Parental drinking has a direct bearing on children. Behavioral problems such as anxiety and depression are common problems among children whose parents drink heavily. Psychosocial interventions have shown promising results for anxiety and depression among children; however, few studies have been conducted in the context of children of parents with alcohol dependence in India. AIM To evaluate the efficacy of psychosocial intervention for internalizing behavioral problems among children of parents with alcohol dependence. METHODS A randomized controlled trial with a 2 × 4 factorial design was adopted with longitudinal measurement of outcomes for 6 mo. Two-hundred and eleven children who met the eligibility criteria (at least one parent with alcohol dependence) at government high schools in Bangalore, India, were randomized to the experimental ( n = 97) or control group ( n = 98). The psychosocial intervention was administered to the experimental group in eight sessions (biweekly) over 4 wk after baseline assessment. The intervention focused on identifying and modifying negative thoughts, replacing thinking errors with realistic alternatives, modification of maladaptive behavior, developing adaptive coping skills and building self-esteem. The data was collected pre-intervention and at 1, 3 and 6 mo after the intervention. Data were analyzed using SPSS 28.0 version. RESULTS Mean age of the children was 14.68 ± 0.58 years, 60.5% were male, 56% were studying in 9th standard, 70.75% were from nuclear families, and mean family monthly income was 9588.1 ± 3135.2 INR. Mean duration of parental alcohol dependence was 7.52 ± 2.94 years and the father was the alcohol-consuming parent. The findings showed that there were significant psychosocial intervention effects in terms of decreasing anxiety and depression scores, and increasing self-esteem level among experimental group subjects over the 6-mo interval, when compared with the control group ( P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that the psychosocial intervention was effective in reducing anxiety and depression, and increasing self-esteem among children of parents with alcohol dependence. The study recommends the need for ongoing psychosocial intervention for these children.

“…The meta-analysis of Lee et al (2013) convincingly argued that promoting the protective processes might be more effective than decreasing risk processes factors in facilitating resilience. Programs for decreasing disturbances in positive self-resources and enhancing self-esteem and self-compassion, such as self-esteem improvement programs and mindful self-compassion programs, have the potential to interrupt the long-lasting effects of child maltreatment on adulthood subjective well-being (Bluth & Eisenlohr-Moul, 2017; Park & Park, 2015).…”

Child maltreatment is negatively associated with subjective well-being in emerging adulthood, but the understanding of the mechanisms of this relationship is incomplete. Guided by the stress process model incorporated with a life-course perspective, the present study examined the protective roles of self-related resources (self-esteem and self-compassion) in this association, while considering various maltreatment types (physical abuse, physical neglect, emotional abuse, emotional neglect, and sexual abuse). The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form, Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, Self-compassion Scale, and Satisfaction with Life Scale were used to measure the key variables through an online survey of 358 Chinese college students (226 females, mean age = 19.18) Direct effect of one type of maltreatment on life satisfaction and the three indirect effects through (a) self-esteem; (b) self-compassion; and (c) self-esteem and self-compassion in sequence were examined while controlling for age, gender, and the other four maltreatment types. The results showed that psychological maltreatment was negatively associated with life satisfaction through self-esteem and through the pathway from self-esteem to self-compassion. Indirect effects of the other three types of maltreatment were not significant. This suggests that self-processes are more vulnerable to psychological maltreatment than to other maltreatment types. The type of maltreatment experienced in childhood is worth considering when investigating the extending effect of child maltreatment on individual developmental outcomes. Our findings broaden the understanding of the mechanisms of the stress process model integrated with a life-course perspective. Self-related resources appear to play substantial roles in the long-term association between early stressors of psychological maltreatment in childhood and subjective well-being in emerging adulthood. Highlighting the need to work on improved self-related resources, including self-compassion and self-esteem, might help practitioners to provide treatment for survivors of adverse childhood experiences..

“…Respecto de aquellos estudios con resultados positivos, vale la pena resaltar la intervención desarrollada por Soriano y Franco (2010), en donde un componente adicional y transversal al programa es el entrenamiento en mindfulness o conciencia plena. Asimismo, es importante anotar que estos programas se desarrollan de forma presencial mediante talleres teórico-prácticos (Aciego de Mendoza et al, 2003;Barón, 2012;Leiva et al, 2015;Park & Park, 2015;Sánchez et al, 2019;Soriano & Franco, 2010;Uribe et al, 2016;Vera et al, 2010), aunque en uno de ellos se destaca la figura de las mentorías (Marino et al, 2020). Finalmente, respecto al momento más oportuno, se han llevado a cabo intervenciones posteriores a la jornada escolar (Park & Park, 2015) o durante esta (Barón, 2012), buscando asegurar la asistencia de los participantes.…”

Este estudio evaluó la eficacia de una intervención virtual enfocada en el mejoramiento de la autoestima y el bienestar en adolescentes de los colegios de la Policía Nacional mediante la investigación cuasi experimental con 194 estudiantes (Rango de edad: 12-17 años, M = 13.76 años, D.E. = 1.089; 58.4 % mujeres) asignados aleatoriamente por grupos. La intervención consistió en cuatro encuentros sincrónicos, un taller para padres, una asesoría individual y un cuadernillo de actividades asincrónicas, basado en la teoría de acción razonada/planeada y el modelo ecológico de Bronfenbrenner. Los participantes respondieron el Cuestionario para la Evaluación de Problemas en Adolescentes Q-PAD antes y después de la intervención. Los resultados del análisis, con 135 estudiantes que finalizaron la intervención (70 caso y 65 control), mostraron que los estudiantes intervenidos presentaron menor incertidumbre frente al futuro y niveles de depresión mínimos en comparación con el grupo control. La autoestima y el bienestar evidenciaron un aumento, aunque no fue estadísticamente significativo respecto al control. Se discuten las lecciones aprendidas y se dan recomendaciones para mejorar la intervención. Se concluye que la intervención es adecuada para reducir la incertidumbre y depresión en adolescentes, lo que podría incidir posteriormente en mejorar la autoestima y el bienestar.
