Objective Research indicates that socioeconomic status (SES) influences developmental outcomes, particularly in language, executive functions, and intelligence, though findings have been mixed. This study examines the relationship between academic, cognitive intellectual abilities a cross-section of children at two age levels low-SES vs. high-SES schools.

Many cancer survivors experience cognitive impairments that impact memory, concentration, speed of information processing, and decision making. These impairments, collectively known as cancer-related (CRCIs), are a key domain unmet needs can significantly survivor’s identity quality life. However, there no purpose-built, multi-domain, assessment tools specifically for CRCI. The development such requires an in-depth understanding survivors’ CRCI-specific challenges associated needs. This study explored the with persistent An qualitative design using semi-structured interviews (a) perceived CRCI (n = 32) (b) oncology health professionals 19) was utilised. A reflexive thematic analysis resulted in five overarching themes: (1) executing regular activities, (2) relational difficulties, (3) occupational functioning, (4) psychological distress, (5) social well additional informational domain.

Neurocognitive deficits have been consistently associated with a wide range of psychopathology and are proposed to not only be consequence the development but also directly involved in its aetiology. However, there is no clear understanding what neurocognitive processes particularly important mental health.

In recent years, there has been debate about the optimal conceptualisation of psychopathology. Structural models psychopathology have developed to counter issues, including comorbidity and poor diagnostic stability prevalent within traditional nosological approach. Regardless psychological dysfunction, deficits in neurocognitive abilities claimed be an aetiological feature Explorations association between neurocognition typically taken a linear approach, overlooking potential interactive dynamics abilities. Previously, we proposed multidimensional hypothesis, where within-person interactions domains are fundamental understanding role this study, used previously collected data for 400 participants on psychopathological symptoms, substance use, performance eight tasks compared predictive accuracy artificial neural network models.

Structural models of psychopathology have emerged as an alternative to traditional categorical approaches. The bifactor model, which incorporates a general p-factor, has become the preferred structure. p-factor is claimed represent substantive construct or property system; however, recent evidence suggests that it may be without meaning. If universal p, and associated specific factors, developed they not only must applicable consistent between populations but also within subgroups population. This consistency needs include factor loadings correlates. We used simulated data approach explore applicability four popular range heterogeneous examined their neurocognitive found eight out sixty-three fitted any with all significant loadings, no negative non-positive-definite identification issues, variance. All these fit correlated factors none original revised one subgroup single-factor model. Correlates varied substantially same discuss implications findings, including for development psychopathology.

In this narrative review, we used a systematic approach summarize impact restrictive lockdown on people living in Victoria, Australia during 2020 and identify groups with an increased risk adverse outcomes.

As assessed by numerous neuropsychological tasks, individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia disorders (SSDs) have similar impairments related to executive functions (EFs). The profile of these two conditions was examined using the three-component EFs' framework Miyake Friedman (Cogn Psychol 41(1):49-100, 2000). This approach assesses Inhibition (suppression unwanted irrelevant information/responses), Updating (use control contents working memory), Shifting (disengagement between activities or mental tasks) nine different tasks. In line previous research, we expected greater performance deficits in ASD all three components compared SSD, as well faster responses for SSD group. A self-paced task format allowed us examine whether unlimited time given a would lead better performance. sample constituted group (N = 25), 24), 12). Groups did not differ on Updating, performed poorer than other groups. Shifting, both groups demonstrated controls, presenting greatest difficulties. terms reaction (RT), participants' RT were slowest There positive correlation spent only group, which demonstrates that their improves when there are no constraints.
