Objective

To investigate into emotion regulation strategies in

MVP adolescents.

Methods

A projective study of emotion regulation was under-

taken with our modified version of Rosenzweig Picture-Frustration

Test (Zinchenko, Pervichko, 2014). Thirty-six adolescents withMVP

(mean age was 17.1

±

0.8 years) and 40 healthy adolescents (mean

age was 16.7

±

0.6 years) took part in the study.

Results

MVP adolescents significantly more frequently (

P

<

0.001) would mark Rosenzweig’s situations as potentially trauma-

tizing. Ego-defence (E-D) and extrapunitive (E) reactions appear

to be significantly (

P

< 0.05) more frequent among MVP adoles-

cents. MVP adolescents are more than healthy subjects prone to

avoid open verbal revelations of their thoughts and feelings that

emerge in the situation of frustration. Content analysis of responses

conditioned by cognitive control (when the task was to taper off

arbitrarily the traumatizing effect of the situation) revealed that

suppression of emotions was displayed by MVP adolescents in 52%

of answers, and for healthy participants - 29% of answers (

P

< 0.001).

Cognitive reappraisal strategywas displayed byMVP adolescents in

27% of answers, and for healthy participants – 38% of answers (

P

<

0.05). Twenty-one percent of answers of MVP adolescents and 33%

of answers of healthy participants suggested cognitive transforma-

tion of emotional experience and actualization of newmeanings in

traumatic situations (

P

< 0.05).

Conclusions

MVP adolescents appear to bemore sensitive of frus-

trations and differ from healthy peers in more frequent use of the

strategy of suppression of emotions.

Introduction

The characteristics and the mental functioning of

adolescent prostitutes were examined in several studies. Literature

associates externalizing problems (i.e. impulsivity) with high rates

of sexual activity and high rates of prostitution (Donenberg et al.,

2005). Research has identified a link between psychopathology and

high rates of health-risking sexual behavior and conduct problems.

Despite the identification of psychopathology as a risk factor for

the development of health-risking sexual, its role in prostitution

has not been well examined.

Objectives

Although the association between psychopathological

disease and engagement in health-risking sexual behavior is docu-

mented, the specific nature of the cause or mechanism for the link

between psychopathological disease and the development of these

behavior problems is not known.

Methods

An extensive literature search for relevant published

and unpublished studies was conducted on Medline, CINAHL Plus

with Full Text, Psycoinfo and PsycArticle from inception through

September 21, 2015. Additionally, we performed a search in Google

Scholar and manually searched by the reference lists of included

articles. Comprehensive search strategies were developed using

the controlled vocabularies of each database. We systematically

searched for relevant studies using a combination of Medical Sub-

ject Headings (MeSH) terms and corresponding free-text terms.

Search term and keywords were altered as per specification of

individual database.

Results

Adolescent prostitution is one of the major public health

problems and psychopathology plays an important part in it.

Adolescent prostitutes’ shown elevated level of psychopatholog-

ical disease that may reflect the possibility that their psychological

functioning leads them to this particular environment.

About a third of children are described as overactive by their

parents, and up to a fifth of schoolchildren are described in this

way by their teachers. Diagnosis of ADHD can be exhibited in

3–7% of children reached school age. It is not surprising that in

children with ADHD as a result of such symptoms develop low

self-esteem and emotional problems, often observed a variety of

neurotic symptoms and behavioral disorders. The aim of our work

was to investigate effectiveness of GABA-ergic medications in com-

plex correction of ADHD children. It is investigated and treated 69

children with ADHD in age from 6 to 12 years. All the children were

assigned GABA-ergic medications in doses that depended on the

age of the child within three months. Besides medication, parents

with their children carried out psychological adjustment, first of all

it was a psychological training of parents based on system model

of psychotherapy and appropriate recommendations for changes

in behavioral strategies in relation to children. After treatment

100% of parents noted improvement of children’s state. However,

symptoms significantly smoothed in 51 children, children were

more attentive, calmer, and more reflective. It was made signif-

icant changes in the relationships of parents with children that

manifested itself in improving mutual understanding, increased

positive reinforcement, reducing cases of different methods of pun-

ishment and expression of dissatisfaction with the behavior of

children. Therefore, GABA-ergic medications can be successfully

used in complex correction in children with ADHD.
