This study examines the relationship between psychosocial factors

and insomnia complaints in a community adolescent population.

The aims of this study are:

– to find the prevalence of poor sleep quality complaints in Korean

community students;

– to explore the relationship between poor sleep quality complaints

and the psychosocial factors;

– to explore the relationship between the severity of poor sleep and

the psychopathology in the adolescents in Korea.

It is a cross-sectional study of a stratified sample of 2307 South

Korean middle and high-school students. Subjects were given

the Adolescent Mental Health and Problem Behavior Screening

Questionnaire-II (AMPQ-II), the Symptom Checklist scale (SCL-90-

R) and a questionnaire concerning demographic characteristics.

Adolescents classified as suffering fromsleepdisturbances (22.3%of

the participants) presented higher levels of general psychopathol-

ogy. Age, gender, academic and Internet use problems, peer

relationship difficulties including school violence, rule violation

experiences were identified as correlates of the sleep disturbances

complaints. Psychosocial correlates such as suicidal ideation and

Internet use problems are important factors to consider when faced

with sleep disturbance complaints in this age group. It was found

that psychosocial and psychopathologic problems had a positive

correlation with severity of sleep disturbances. Regarding the cul-

ture of hiding the psychological distress and exhibit the somatic

complaints, the level of subjective sleep quality is one indicator

for the screening of the high-risk group. Large-scale prospec-

tive studies and neurobiological studies are needed for a better

understanding of the complex relationship between sleep, psy-

chopathology, and youth suicidal behavior.

Introduction

Somatic symptoms disorders (SSD) are one of the

most neglected areas in child and adolescent psychiatry (Moha-

patra et al., 2014). SSD are characterized by multiple and variable

physical symptoms without demonstrable pathophysiological pro-

cesses. Literature has investigated the role of several psychological

variables in SSD, with inconclusive data. Moreover, there is a

paucity of studies on middle-childhood and early adolescence in

this clinical condition.

Objectives

We focus on the role of attachment and on psycholog-

ical aspects in children with SSD.

Aims

The aims are to verify the presence of:

– an overrepresentation of attachment disorganization in these

children;

– an overrepresentation of psychological symptoms.

Methods

Fifty-six consecutive Italian patients with SSD, aged

from 8 to 15, were administered Child Behavior Checklist (Achen-

bach, 1991) and Child Attachment Interview (Shmueli-Goetz et al.,

2000).

Results

Findings showed:

– a significant presence of disorganized attachment with respect to

both parents;

– high levels of anxiety and depression.

Conclusion

This study extended previous research in middle-

childhood and early adolescence in SSD. The findings support the

influence of the disorganization aspects and the psychological

problems surrounding the SSD. The clinical implications for future

research directions are discussed.

Introduction

An overlap between autism spectrum disorder

(ASD), in particular Asperger Syndrome (AS), and high intellectual

potential (HIP–Total IQ > 2 SD) is often discussed.

Objectives

Explore differences between homogeneous and het-

erogeneous Wisc-profiles among HIP children, and between HIP

and ASD children, on cognitive and clinical assessments.

Methods

Forty-nine participants (mean age 11.2 years) were

divided in 4 groups: High Functioning Autism (HFA), AS,

Homogenous HIP and Heterogeneous HIP. Data of WISC-IV and

questionnaires – Autism Quotient (AQ), Empathy Quotient (EQ),

Systemizing Quotient (SQ), Children’s Communication Checklist

(CCC) – were compared.

(Preliminary) Results

On the WISC-IV, the Z scores curves follow

similar trajectories but highlight quantitative differences between

AS and heterogeneous HIP: verbal comprehension is the highest

index (+1,6 SD inAS; +3,1 SD inheterogeneousHIP) followedby per-

ceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed indexes

(–1,2 SD in AS; +0,5 SD in heterogeneous HIP), respectively. The

questionnaires show that scores of Homogenous HIP children are

all in the average. Heterogeneous HIP children score 2,1 SD above

average on the AQ (+1,6 SD on “Social Skills” and +1,3 SD on “Local

Detail” subscales), whereas ASD children score 4 SD above average

on the AQ. In addition, heterogeneous HIP children show pragmatic

difficulties (–2,4 SD on the CCC, with a peak on “Area of Interest”

subscale), also present in ASD children (–4 SD).

Conclusions

AS and heterogeneous HIP children show similar

cognitive profiles on theWISC-IV. Furthermore, heterogeneous HIP

children exhibit high scores on the AQ and have pragmatic difficul-

ties.
