Rebecca Hignett, Rebecca Curran, Helen L. Fisher, Simon Riches

Psychology and Psychotherapy: Theory, Research and Practice > 97 > 3 > 562 - 581

Helen L. Fisher, Zoë Firth, Christine Aicardi, Johnny Downs

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 65 > 7 > 871 - 873

Rates of mental health problems in adolescence are rising as highlighted in this current issue of the Journal. It is therefore increasingly important to identify children who may be at risk so that preventive interventions can be deployed before they reach adolescence. Adverse parenting has long been considered a risk factor for poor mental health in adolescence, but the methods traditionally used...

Editorial: Salutogenic mental health science—A phoenix rising from the pathogenic ashes of psychiatry?

Helen L. Fisher

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 64 > 11 > 1529 - 1531

As highlighted by several of the papers featured in this current issue of the Journal, psychiatric research and practice is dominated by a pathogenic focus on understanding the origins of mental ill‐health and developing interventions to prevent or treat psychopathology. The World Health Organization has called for a paradigm shift to move away from the almost exclusive focus on the absence of illness...

Abigail Burgess, Syed Shabab Wahid, Katherine Ottman, Christian Kieling, more

Early Intervention in Psychiatry > 16 > 12 > 1319 - 1334

Aim: Depression is one of the most common mental illnesses globally and a leading cause of disability. It is often established by late adolescence and thus identifying which adolescents are most at risk is crucial to enable early intervention to prevent depression onset. We have previously developed a risk calculator to stratify which adolescents are at high risk of developing depression and in this...

Simon Riches, Natalie Steer, Ruxandra Vasile, Sophie Lyles, more

Early Intervention in Psychiatry > 16 > 11 > 1192 - 1201

Aim The arts have the potential to increase public awareness about mental health and reduce stigma. However, arts‐based projects to raise awareness have been small‐scale. In this study, a mental health‐awareness audio tour of The National Gallery in London was co‐produced and narrated by young adults with relevant lived experience. The study investigated the acceptability of the tour to the public...

Editorial: The near ubiquity of comorbidity – what are the implications for children’s mental health research and practice?

Helen L. Fisher

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 63 > 5 > 505 - 506

The experience of two or more mental health disorders or symptom‐clusters, either simultaneously or sequentially, is common among adults. Increasing evidence suggests that such comorbidity may also be prevalent among children though it often extends beyond mental health disorders. This is highlighted by several of the papers featured in the current issue of the Journal, which are summarised in this...

Editorial: ‘The early bird catches the worm’—the need for even earlier intervention and targeted prevention for mental illnesses

Helen L. Fisher

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 62 > 4 > 369 - 371

Intervening early during childhood and adolescence to prevent mental health problems from becoming chronic, or even to prevent them occurring at all, has become an increasingly popular approach within the field of mental health over the past three decades. The importance of, and potential for, early preventive interventions in infancy, the pre‐natal period and even pre‐conception is highlighted by...

Associations between ADHD and emotional problems from childhood to young adulthood: a longitudinal genetically sensitive study

Adi Stern, Jessica C. Agnew‐Blais, Andrea Danese, Helen L. Fisher, more

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 61 > 11 > 1234 - 1242

Background Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with emotional problems, and their co‐occurrence often leads to worse outcomes. We investigated the developmental associations between ADHD and emotional problems from childhood to early adolescence and examined the genetic and environmental contributions to their developmental link.

Characteristics of severe life events, attachment style, and depression – Using a new online approach

Antonia Bifulco, Lisa Kagan, Ruth Spence, Stephen Nunn, more

British Journal of Clinical Psychology > 58 > 4 > 427 - 439

Objectives Severe life events are established as provoking agents for depression in combination with vulnerability factors. Identifying features of severe events improves the prediction of disorder but are rarely utilized, mainly because life event research is increasingly dominated by self‐report checklists with no capacity for inferring such characteristics. This paper investigates the association...

Gloria A. Pedersen, Zuzanna Zajkowska, Christian Kieling, Kamal Gautam, more

Systematic Reviews > 2019 > 8 > 1 > 1-9

Background Depression is a leading contributor to disability-adjusted life-years because of early onset and chronicity throughout the lifecycle. It is crucial to identify early predictors of depression among adolescents and young people to effectively target prevention. A gap in the literature is a comprehensive systematic review of predictors of depression among adolescents around the globe, especially...

Duration of untreated psychosis and clinical outcomes of first episode psychosis: An observational and an instrumental variables analysis

Sarah A. Sullivan, Robert Carroll, Tim J. Peters, Tim Amos, more

Early Intervention in Psychiatry > 13 > 4 > 841 - 847

Aim Duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) is considered as a key prognostic variable in psychosis. Yet, it is unclear whether a longer DUP causes worse outcomes or whether reported associations have alternative explanations. Methods Data from 2 cohorts of patients with first episode psychosis were used (n = 2134). Measures of DUP were assessed at baseline and outcomes at 12 months. Regression models...

Aikaterini Rammou, Helen L. Fisher, Sonia Johnson, Barnaby Major, more

Early Intervention in Psychiatry > 13 > 3 > 443 - 452

Aim Negative symptoms (NS) have been associated with poor outcome and remain difficult to treat in patients with psychosis. This study examined the association of NS with clinical features at first presentation to mental health services for psychosis and with outcomes at 1‐year follow‐up. Methods Clinical data were utilized from five London Early Intervention Services (EIS) included in the MiData...

Protective factors for psychotic experiences amongst adolescents exposed to multiple forms of victimization

Eloise Crush, Louise Arseneault, Terrie E. Moffitt, Andrea Danese, more

Journal of Psychiatric Research > 2018 > 104 > C > 32-38

Experiencing multiple types of victimization (poly-victimization) during adolescence is associated with the onset of psychotic experiences (such as hearing voices, having visions, or being extremely paranoid). However, many poly-victimized adolescents will not develop such subclinical phenomena and the factors that protect them are unknown. This study investigated whether individual, family, or community-level...
