项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Children's functioning in the ontext of stressors is a matter of considerable public health significance. This project will improve identification of children at risk for poor outcomes when exposed to the stressor of interparental conflict. It will examine interrelations between the stressor of interparental conflict and children's temperament traits as predictors of children's emotional, behavioral, and physical health outcomes. The project will also examine mechanisms underlying associations between interparental conflict and outcomes-namely, children's neuropsychological processing, adrenocortical, emotional, and cognitive reactions to interparental conflict, and sleep problems. The project will also examine transactional processes involving the influence of children's behavior during parental conflict on parents' later conflict and on child outcomes. Methods include the use of electroencephalography (EEG) and Event-Related Potentials (ERP) techniques to examine neural processing of conflict stimuli, assaying of saliva samples for cortisol levels, observation of an interparental Problem Discussion in the child's presence, and questionnaires. Participants in the main study will be 100 nine- to eleven-year-old children and their parents. Data will also be collected from two smaller scale projects to facilitate the development of the main study. The proposal also includes secondary data analysis of data from a sample of 585 children and their parents. This data will facilitate addressing questions about interrelations between temperament, change in parental conflict, and change in child outcomes, including examination over an extended period of development. The career development plan includes intensive training in several areas, including children's temperament with Dr. John E. Bates (Indiana University). In addition, Dr. Douglas Granger (Pennsylvania State University) will provide training in adrenocortical functioning. Dr. Dennis Molfese (University of Louisville) will provide technical training in EEG and ERPs techniques in children, and Dr. Seth Pollak (University of Wisconsin- Madison) will provide training in research design and in the content area of brain activation and child functioning in the context of stressors. Dr. William Hetrick (Indiana University) will provide additional EEG/ERPs consultation, and Dr. Amy Holtzworth-Munroe (Indiana University) will provide training regarding marital relationship functioning. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed work addresses public health issues by a) improving identification of children at greater risk of emotional, behavioral, and physical health problems when exposed to interparental conflict, b) examining biological and psychological mechanisms underlying risk for these problems in the context of interparental conflict, and c) examining transactional processes, including children's influence on parents' conflict and the implications of children's behavioral responses to parents' conflict for child outcomes.

描述（由申请人提供）：儿童在压力源方面的功能具有很大的公共卫生意义。该项目将在暴露于父母冲突的压力源时提高对差差差的儿童的识别。它将探讨互相冲突的压力源与儿童气质特征之间的相互关系，以预测儿童的情绪，行为和身体健康结果。该项目还将研究互互冲突与结果之间的关联机制，即儿童神经心理学处理，肾上腺皮质，情感和认知反应，对互代的冲突以及睡眠问题。该项目还将检查涉及父母冲突期间儿童行为对父母后来冲突和儿童结果的影响的交易过程。方法包括使用脑电图（EEG）和事件相关电位（ERP）技术来检查冲突刺激的神经加工，分析唾液样品的皮质醇水平，观察儿童存在中的胎儿问题讨论以及问卷。主要研究的参与者将为100九至11岁的孩子及其父母。数据还将从两个较小规模的项目收集，以促进主要研究的发展。该提案还包括来自585名儿童及其父母样本的数据的辅助数据分析。这些数据将有助于解决有关气质，父母冲突变化和儿童结局变化之间相互关系的问题，包括在长期发展中检查。职业发展计划包括与约翰·贝茨（John E. Bates）博士（印第安纳大学）（Indiana University）的儿童气质进行深入培训。此外，宾夕法尼亚州立大学的道格拉斯·格兰杰（Douglas Granger）博士将提供有关肾上腺皮质功能的培训。丹尼斯·莫尔夫斯（Dennis Molfese）博士（路易斯维尔大学）将在EEG和儿童的ERP技术中提供技术培训，而塞思·波拉克（Seth Pollak）（威斯康星大学 - 麦迪逊分校）将在研究设计以及在压力子的背景下进行研究设计和大脑激活和儿童功能的培训。威廉·霍特里克（William Hetrick）博士（印第安纳大学）将提供额外的EEG/ERPS咨询，Amy Holtzworth-Munroe（印第安纳大学）将提供有关婚姻关系功能的培训。公共卫生相关性：拟议的工作通过a）通过a）提高面临互联冲突的识别的情绪，行为和身体健康问题的识别更大的风险，b）检查生物学和心理机制的潜在的，在父母冲突的背景下对这些问题的风险进行，以及c）对父母对父母的造成冲突和父母的影响，包括儿童对父母的影响，对父母的影响。
