Structural brain correlates of externalizing traits and symptoms in the IMAGEN sample.

The evidence supporting the presence of individual brain structure correlates of the externalizing spectrum (EXT) is sparse and mixed. To date, large-sample studies of brain-EXT relations have mainly found null to very small effects by focusing exclusively on either EXT-related personality traits (e.g.

A Socioecological Approach to Support the Transition to Adult Care for Youth With Medical Complexity: Family Perspectives and Recommendations.

Introduction: The transition from paediatric to adult health care (i.e., 'health care transition') poses many challenges for youth with medical complexity (YMC) and their families.

Surviving transition: A qualitative case study on how families adapt as their youth with medical complexity transitions from child to adult systems of care.

Background: A growing population of youth with medical complexity (YMC) are entering adult health care, education, and social systems in which their needs have been largely neglected. To better support YMC and their families, an understanding of how they manage the challenges of transitioning to adult services is needed. The aim of this study was to examine how families of YMC adapt to challenges and opportunities posed by the youth's transition to adulthood and transfer to adult services.

The Negative Symptom Inventory-Psychosis Risk (NSI-PR): Psychometric Validation of the Final 11-Item Version.

Background And Hypotheses: The lack of psychometrically validated assessment tools designed specifically to assess negative symptoms in individuals at clinical high risk (CHR) for psychosis represents a significant barrier to the early identification and prevention of psychosis. To address this need, the Negative Symptom Inventory-Psychosis Risk (NSI-PR) was developed based on the iterative, data-driven approach recommended by the National Institute of Mental Health consensus conference on negative symptoms.

Study Design: This manuscript reports the results of the second study phase that psychometrically validates the final 11-item version of the scale in data collected across 3 sites.
