“…High levels of parental ED are also associated with the severity of the children's EatD pathology ( 248 ). Maladaptive adolescent attentional bias toward anger and social threats predict a strong association between maladaptive parental responses to emotions and adolescent ED ( 249 ). There are specific emotional factors in developing and maintaining adolescent EatD:…”

Emotional Dysregulation in Children and Adolescents With Psychiatric Disorders. A Narrative Review

Background: Emotional dysregulation (ED) is a transdiagnostic construct defined as the inability to regulate the intensity and quality of emotions (such as, fear, anger, sadness), in order to generate an appropriate emotional response, to handle excitability, mood instability, and emotional overreactivity, and to come down to an emotional baseline. Because ED has not been defined as a clinical entity, and because ED plays a major role in child and adolescent psychopathology, we decided to summarize current knowledge on this topic based on a narrative review of the current literature.Methods: This narrative review is based on a literature search of peer-reviewed journals. We searched the databases ERIC, PsycARTICLES, PsycINFO and PSYNDEX on June 2, 2020 for peer reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2020 in English language for the preschool, school, and adolescent age (2–17 years) using the following search terms: “emotional dysregulation” OR “affect dysregulation,” retrieving 943 articles.Results: The results of the literature search are presented in the following sections: the relationship between ED and psychiatric disorders (ADHD, Mood Disorders, Psychological Trauma, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Non-suicidal Self-Injury, Eating Disorders, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Conduct Disorder, Disruptive Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder, Personality Disorders, Substance Use Disorder, Developmental Disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Psychosis and Schizophrenia, and Gaming Disorder), prevention, and treatment of ED.Conclusion: Basic conditions of ED are genetic disposition, the experience of trauma, especially sexual or physical abuse, emotional neglect in childhood or adolescence, and personal stress. ED is a complex construct and a comprehensive concept, aggravating a number of various mental disorders. Differential treatment is mandatory for individual and social functioning.

“…Finally, although there is less evidence to support this pathway, it remains possible that parental contracting influenced attentional bias to diabetes cues. Evidence suggests family cohesion and parental response can influence children’s attentional bias to threat (Hughes-Scalise and Connell, 2014; Luecken et al, 2006). However, more research is needed to understand if this family functioning influences attentional bias to illness- or disease-related cues, in particular.…”

Attentional bias to diabetes cues mediates disease management improvements in a pilot randomized controlled trial for adolescents with type 1 diabetes

For type 1 diabetes management, the role of attentional bias remains unclear. This secondary analysis examined type 1 diabetes attentional bias and adolescent type 1 diabetes management prior to and during a cognitive and behavioral intervention. Youth with type 1 diabetes and above target glycemic control were assigned to intervention or usual care control. Participants completed baseline and follow-up type 1 diabetes Stroop tasks, HbA1c tests, and blood glucose meter downloads. Intervention was associated with greater reductions in type 1 diabetes attentional bias than control, and these reductions partially mediated the effect of treatment on diabetes management behaviors. Type 1 diabetes attentional bias is a potential target to improve type 1 diabetes management.

“…The outcome from this body work is inconclusive. For example, one study – using a dot-probe paradigm – found that children with chronic pain (vs children with eating disorders) had overall slower reaction times to correctly identify angry, sad and neutral faces (Hughes-Scalise & Connell, 2014). An earlier study – using the emotion-identification task (as used in this study) – found no significant differences between underweight adolescents with an eating disorder and healthy controls in emotion-identification accuracy or in the reaction time for correctly or incorrectly identified emotions (Hatch et al, 2009).…”

Accumulating evidence indicates that psychological and neurophysiological processes interconnect and interact to activate the body’s stress system and to trigger and maintain functional somatic symptoms. This study used the Early Life Stress Questionnaire, Depression Anxiety Stress Scales and biological markers (heart rate, heart rate variability, skin conductance, C-reactive protein (CRP) titre, respiratory rate, and accuracy and reaction time in an emotion-face identification task), to examine childhood adversity, psychological distress and stress-system activation in 35 children and adolescents (23 girls and 12 boys, 9–17 years old) disabled by chronic pain (vs two groups of age- and sex-matched healthy controls). Patients reported more early-life stress ( U = 798.5, p = .026) and more psychological distress ( U = 978, p < .001). They showed activation of the autonomic system: elevated heart rate ( U = 862.5, p = .003), elevated electrodermal activity ( U = 804.5, p = .024) and lower heart rate variability in the time domain ( U = 380.5, p = .007) and frequency domain ( U = 409.5, p = .017). The group showed an upward shift of CRP titres (with 75th and 90th CRP percentiles of 4.5 and 10.5 mg/L, respectively), suggesting the activation of the immune–inflammatory system. Elevated CRP titres were associated with elevated heart rate ( p = .028). There were no differences in respiratory rate or in accuracy and reaction time in the emotion-face identification task. The results indicate that interventions for children and adolescents with chronic pain need a multidisciplinary mind–body approach that concurrently addresses psychological distress, physical impairment and stress-system dysregulation.
