A vulnerability-stress model for the course of schizophrenia ?Erickson, David Harry 05 1900 (has links)
Despite a prevailing paradigm that emphasizes an interaction
of vulnerability and stress to account for the etiology of
schizophrenia, diathesis—stress models of subsequent course and
outcome of this disorder are rare. Even the simpler stress—
process model, where the influence of stressors is mediated by
supportive social relationships, has received little attention
in studies of the course of schizophrenia.
The objective of this study was to assess the following
components of a diathesis—stress model as they predict the five-year
outcome of first-episode schizophrenia: (1) stressful life
events; (2) supportive social relationships; (3) brain lateral
ventricle size; and (4) smooth pursuit eye movements.
As part of the Greater Vancouver M.A.P. Project, we recruited
first-episode DSM-III schizophrenia and affective psychosis
patients. At intake to the study, their social relationships,
smooth pursuit eye movement function, and brain ventricle size
were assessed. Life events in the previous year were measured
at intake; events over the following 18 months were assessed in
two later interviews. Five years later we assessed outcome,
using a global rating of social and occupational functioning.
Descriptive results showed substantial variability within the
schizophrenia group at intake and outcome. The trajectory of
adaptive functioning over time was remarkably similar for the
schizophrenic and affective psychosis groups. Of the four hypothesized predictors, only social relationships were
associated (p=.O3) with five—year outcome. The number of life
events was not associated with five—year outcome, nor was either
of the biological risk factors. As a result, the predictor
variables could not be combined in either a stress—process model
or a vulnerability—stress model of the course of schizophrenia.
That social relationship variables are associated with five-year
outcome supports earlier findings regarding 18-month
outcome, including the differing predictive roles for family and
nonfamily relationships. The absence of hypothesized results
for the life events data probably indicates that too much time
had passed between outcome and the events as measured. Finally,
that brain ventricle size and eye-movement dysfunction predict
18-month but not five—year outcome may indicate that impairment
due to biological factors is expressed only in the early stages
of schizophrenia.

Construct validation of the trauma-stren conversion : age, religiosity, mental health, and self-esteemGatten, Shauna L. January 1987 (has links)
Up to this point much of what has been learned regarding individuals' stress responses has been derived from the study of individuals who have suffered from psychopathology or physical illness. Recent research, however, has demonstrated a shift in focus toward individuals who effectively cope with stressful experiences. For example, previous research has identified a type of "conversion" process whereby an initially traumatic event is evaluated and later recognized to have positive effects through its assimilation into a new cognitive framework emphasizing psychological growth and adaptation. The present study investigated the conversion phenomenon, examining the relationship between older and younger subjects' perceptions of significant events and their current level of mental health, self-esteem and religious orientation. Results found conversion to be related to religiosity but not to age, self-esteem or transient mental health status. The findings are discussed and implications for future research are identified.

Stress, dopamine and vulnerability : a functional neuroimaging investigation of stress in schizotypySoliman, Alexandra January 2007 (has links)
Psychological stress increases dopamine release in the striatum and is thought toplay a role in susceptibility to psychotic illness. In schizophrenia, a prototypicalpsychotic illness, there is evidence of abnormal dopamine response to pharmacologicalchallenge or psychological stressors. Stress, like dopamine agonist drugs, can triggerrelapse in schizophrenic patients. It has been proposed that exaggerated responses tostress are key in the etiology of psychosis in vulnerable individuals. However, it is notknown whether differences in brain dopaminergic responsiveness precede psychosis ordevelop subsequent to illness onset. / Le stress psychologique augmente le niveau de dopamine dans le striatum, phenomene qui pourrait contribuer a la vulnerabilite aux maladies psychotiques. Dans la schizophrenie, une maladie psychotique prototypique, les etudes ont montre qu'il y a une liberation anormale de la dopamine en reponse aux drogues ou au stress psychologique. Le stress, comme les agonistes dopaminergiques, peut precipiter une rechute chez des patients schizophrenes. On avance Phypothese que les reponses excessives au stress sont primordiales dans l'etiologie de la psychose chez les individus vulnerables. Cependant, on ne sait pas si les anomalies de la reponse dopaminergique du cerveau precedent la psychose, ou se developpent apres le debut de la maladie.
