Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This report contains a descriptive, demographic study of the total Swedish population 1930, 1940, 1950, and 1960 as to marriage and marriage dissolution. The age, sex, and marital atatus distributions of the population over 15 years are discussed. Marriage intensities of different sex, age (one-year classes), and marital status classes are computed and discussed. Dissolution intensities are also discussed, but due to insufficiences of the data available, it has not been possible to determine them for all classes. Two different measures are used simultaneously in computing the marriage intensities; one simpler and one more exact. The results obtained by the two different methods are compared and discussed. A methodological discussion is to be found in an appendix, as is also a discussion of the material used.

- OBJECTIVE: Deficits in executive functioning, including working memory (WM) deficits, have been suggested to be important in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). During 2002 to 2003, the authors conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled, double-blind trial to investigate the effect of improving WM by computerized, systematic practice of WM tasks. METHOD: Included in the trial were 53 children with ADHD (9 girls; 15 of 53 inattentive subtype), aged 7 to 12 years, without stimulant medication. The compliance criterion (>20 days of training) was met by 44 subjects, 42 of whom were also evaluated at follow-up 3 months later. Participants were randomly assigned to use either the treatment computer program for training WM or a comparison program. The main outcome measure was the span-board task, a visuospatial WM task that was not part of the training program. RESULTS: For the span-board task, there was a significant treatment effect both post-intervention and at follow-up. In addition, there were significant effects for secondary outcome tasks measuring verbal WM, response inhibition, and complex reasoning. Parent ratings showed significant reduction in symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity, both post-intervention and at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that WM can be improved by training in children with ADHD. This training also improved response inhibition and reasoning and resulted in a reduction of the parent-rated inattentive symptoms of ADHD.

Evaluation of the Swedish Trauma Symptom Inventory-2 in a clinical and a student population

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Introduction The Trauma Symptom Inventory-2 (TSI-2) is a broad-spectrum assessment instrument designed to identify symptoms that can appear in the aftermath of potentially traumatic experiences.Objective This study aimed to evaluate the external and internal validity of this newly reconstructed instrument.Method In total, 696 individuals participated in the study, including 83 psychiatric outpatients. Participants answered the TSI-2, together with a trauma history questionnaire, and other questionnaires assumed to correlate with the different scales included in the TSI-2.Results Validity was evaluated by correlations between the TSI-2 and the other instruments and by the differences between clinical and non-clinical populations. Reliability was calculated by testing internal consistency and test-re-test reliability. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was computed to test the postulated four-factor structure. Cronbach's alpha was found to be good and ranged from α = .77 to .91 and test-retest reliability was strong. Strong to satisfactory correlations were found between the TSI-2 and the other instruments. The student sample scored significantly lower than the clinical group on all clinical scales. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated with different cut-off scores.Conclusion Despite the CFA demonstrating a questionably good model of fit, most of the scales proved to be sound and the TSI-2 could be recommended as a broad-spectrum assessment instrument.

Trauma Symptom Inventory™ -2 TSI-2 : Svensk Version
- 2015
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- TSI-2 är ett självrapporteringsformulär som mäter posttraumatisk stress och relaterade symptom och beteenden. TSI-2 syftar till att identifiera symptom som kvarstår hos individen efter en eller flera svåra livshändelser. Mer specifikt är instrumentet avsett att användas för vuxna som har upplevt traumatiska händelser i livet såsom exempelvis fysiska eller sexuella övergrepp, olyckor, katastrofhändelser, traumatiska förluster, dödsfall av närstående, medicinska trauman eller bevittnat hot och våld. TSI-2 mäter ett brett spektrum av traumatiska symptom och lämpar sig framförallt för screening men kan också användas för att utvärdera effekter av psykoterapeutiska interventioner.TSI-2 består av 136 påståenden som ger resultat på:Två validitetsskalorUnderrapportering eller förnekande av symptom, samt en skala gällande överrapportering av traumarelaterade symptom.Fyra faktorerSjälvförvirring, Posttraumatisk stress, Externalisering och Somatisering.Tolv kliniska skalorÅngestfylld spändhet, Depression, Ilska, Invaderande återupplevande, Undvikande, Dissociation, Somatisk upptagenhet, Sexuella svårigheter, Självmordsbenägenhet, Osäker anknytning, Skadad självkänsla, Spänningsreducerande beteende.Den svenska versionen av TSI-2 är standardiserad och normerad vid Linköpings universitet och Uppsala universitet under åren 2012-2014. Normgruppen består av sammanlagt 693 individer i åldrarna 18-65 år. En klinisk grupp med 83 individer ingår också i valideringen av den svenska versionen av TSI-2. Utvecklingsarbetet och den svenska versionens psykometriska egenskaper beskrivs i manualen, som även innehåller anvisningar för administrering, poängsättning och tolkning samt köns- och åldersspecifika normtabeller.

- Mental State Talk (MST) is utterances describing invisible mental aspects. The first aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of Parental MST and Child MST and their concurrent association in a Swedish population, and the second aim was to relate these MST measures to the childrens general language abilities. Seventy-seven dyads of parents and their 25-month-old toddlers participated. MST was assessed by videotaping the dyads during free-play sessions in a laboratory and general language abilities were based on parental reports. Forty-nine toddlers did not produce MST, while all parents used MST. Child MST was positively associated with vocabulary and grammar. Parental MST was not associated with Child MST nor the childrens general language abilities. In exploratory analyses, Parental MST referred to another than the child was positively correlated with vocabulary and grammar. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings and continue studying MST in different linguistic contexts.
