Sound-symbol learning and the relationship to spelling in first-grade children.

J Exp Child Psychol

January 2025

Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, LMU University Hospital, LMU Munich, 80336 München, Germany.

Early spelling depends on the ability to understand the alphabetic principle and to translate speech sounds into visual symbols (letters). Thus, the ability to associate sound-symbol pairs might be an important predictor of spelling development. Here, we examined the relation between sound-symbol learning (SSL) and early spelling skills.

Introduction: Inappropriate reactive (provoked) aggression is common in various psychiatric disorders, including Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and, to a lesser extent, Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Less is known about proactive (unprovoked) aggression in these patients, with mixed findings in the literature. Drawing from the current evidence, we expect higher trait aggression in both patient groups and higher behavioral proactive aggression and physiological arousal in patients with BPD compared to both MDD and healthy participants (HC).

Contact barriers between Freud, Bion and Winnicott.

Am J Psychoanal

December 2024

, 1430, Redpath Crescent, Montreal (QC), H3G 1A2, Canada.

The author discusses the idea that psychoanalysts could benefit from a common paradigm, not necessarily a single theory, but a general frame through which to view their work. Focusing on perception as a basic modality of psychic life, in combination with the system-environment approach, could provide this common baseline. The text explores how this approach relates to the work of Freud, Bion, and Winnicott, emphasizing the interconnectedness of systems and their environments, the role of perception, and the concept of a contact barrier.

Does sleep help children to generalise features like adults?

J Sleep Res

December 2024

Institute of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Centre for Integrative Psychiatry, School of Medicine, University Medical Centre Schleswig-Holstein- Campus Kiel, Kiel, Germany.

Children and adults have been shown to benefit from sleep with regard to the consolidation of declarative memories. Especially during childhood, the generalisation of information from social and non-social contexts is important for adaptable behaviour in new situations and might show specific features in children. Here, we investigated whether adults (n = 18) and children (n = 19) differ in their generalisation of features assessed in wake and sleep conditions.

The effect of social exclusion on pain perception and heart rate variability in healthy controls and somatoform pain patients.

Scand J Pain

January 2024

Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy, University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores how social exclusion impacts pain perception in individuals with somatoform pain disorder compared to healthy controls.
  • Using a virtual ball-tossing game (Cyberball), researchers measured responses to social exclusion through pressure pain thresholds and heart rate variability.
  • Results showed that both groups experienced reduced pain thresholds after exclusion, but only the somatoform pain patients exhibited increased heart rate variability, suggesting distinct pain regulation mechanisms in these individuals.
