IY-TCM was implemented in 11 rural and semi-rural schools with K-2 teachers and a diverse student sample. Outcomes were compared for 45 teachers who participated in five full day training workshops and brief classroom consultation and 46 control teachers; these 91 teachers had a total of 1192 students. A high level of teacher satisfaction was found and specific aspects of the training considered most valuable for early elementary teachers were identified. Hierarchical linear modeling indicated a statistically significant intervention effect on Positive Climate in the classroom (d=0.45) that did not sustain into the next school year. No main effects on student outcomes were observed, although a priori moderator analyses indicated that students with elevated social-behavioral difficulties benefitted with regard to prosocial behavior (d=0.54) and inattention (d=-0.34). Results highlight potential benefits and limitations of a universal teacher training program for elementary students, and suggest strategies for future delivery of the IY-TCM program and areas for future research.}, Doi = {10.1016/j.jsp.2017.10.004}, Key = {fds331139} } @article{fds340337, Author = {Rowland, AS and Skipper, BJ and Rabiner, DL and Qeadan, F and Campbell, RA and Naftel, AJ and Umbach, DM}, Title = {Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Interaction between socioeconomic status and parental history of ADHD determines prevalence.}, Journal = {Journal of child psychology and psychiatry, and allied disciplines}, Volume = {59}, Number = {3}, Pages = {213-222}, Publisher = {WILEY}, Year = {2018}, Month = {March}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.12775}, Abstract = {<h4>Background</h4>Many studies have reported a higher prevalence of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) among disadvantaged populations, but few have considered how parental history of ADHD might modify that relationship. We evaluated whether the prevalence of ADHD varies by socioeconomic status (SES) and parental history of ADHD in a population-sample of elementary school children age 6-14 years.<h4>Methods</h4>We screened all children in grades 1-5 in 17 schools in one North Carolina (U.S.) county for ADHD using teacher rating scales and 1,160 parent interviews, including an ADHD structured interview (DISC). We combined parent and teacher ratings to determine DSM-IV ADHD status. Data analysis was restricted to 967 children with information about parental history of ADHD. SES was measured by family income and respondent education.<h4>Results</h4>We found an interaction between family income and parental history of ADHD diagnosis (p = .016). The SES gradient was stronger in families without a parental history and weaker among children with a parental history. Among children without a parental history of ADHD diagnosis, low income children had 6.2 times the odds of ADHD (95% CI 3.4-11.3) as high income children after adjusting for covariates. Among children with a parental history, all had over 10 times the odds of ADHD as high income children without a parental history but the SES gradient between high and low income children was less pronounced [odds ratio (OR) = 1.4, 95% CI 0.6-3.5].<h4>Conclusions</h4>Socioeconomic status and parental history of ADHD are each strong risk factors for ADHD that interact to determine prevalence. More research is needed to dissect the components of SES that contribute to risk of ADHD. Future ADHD research should evaluate whether the strength of other environmental risk factors vary by parental history. Early identification and interventions for children with low SES or parental histories of ADHD should be explored.}, Doi = {10.1111/jcpp.12775}, Key = {fds340337} } @article{fds322024, Author = {Rabiner, DL and Carrig, MM and Dodge, KA}, Title = {Attention Problems and Academic Achievement: Do Persistent and Earlier-Emerging Problems Have More Adverse Long-Term Effects?}, Journal = {Journal of attention disorders}, Volume = {20}, Number = {11}, Pages = {946-957}, Year = {2016}, Month = {November}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1087054713507974}, Abstract = {<h4>Objective</h4>This study examined whether the negative association between children's attention difficulties and their academic functioning is largely confined to children whose attention problems persist across early grades and whether it depends on when attention problems emerge in children's schooling.<h4>Method</h4>Children from the normative sample of the Fast Track study were classified into four attention problem groups based on the presence versus absence of attention problems in first and second grade.<h4>Results</h4>Those with attention problems in both grades showed a decline in reading and math achievement during the K-5 interval relative to children with attention problems in first grade only. Both groups of inattentive first graders also performed worse than comparison children.

We examined associations between these early child characteristics and academic outcomes into young adulthood using the Fast Track normative sample (n = 386). Reading achievement after fifth grade was significantly higher in children with better early reading skills and significantly lower in children with early attention difficulties. Math achievement was predicted by early reading and math skills, while school grades were significantly lower in children with lower peer acceptance and higher attention difficulties. Children with early attention difficulties were 40% less likely to graduate from high school. Years of education by young adulthood was significantly reduced in children with lower early reading skills, lower social acceptance, and higher attention difficulties; these early child characteristics affected long-term academic outcomes indirectly through their impact on intermediate academic outcomes.}, Doi = {10.17105/SPR45-2.250-267}, Key = {fds322025} } @article{fds253531, Author = {Rowland, AS and Skipper, BJ and Umbach, DM and Rabiner, DL and Campbell, RA and Naftel, AJ and Sandler, DP}, Title = {The Prevalence of ADHD in a Population-Based Sample.}, Journal = {Journal of attention disorders}, Volume = {19}, Number = {9}, Pages = {741-754}, Year = {2015}, Month = {September}, ISSN = {1087-0547}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1087054713513799}, Abstract = {<h4>Objective</h4>Few studies of ADHD prevalence have used population-based samples, multiple informants, and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM-IV) criteria. Moreover, children who are asymptomatic while receiving ADHD medication often have been misclassified. Therefore, we conducted a population-based study to estimate the prevalence of ADHD in elementary school children using DSM-IV criteria.<h4>Method</h4>We screened 7,587 children for ADHD. Teachers of 81% of the children completed a DSM-IV checklist. We then interviewed parents using a structured interview (DISC). Of these, 72% participated. Parent and teacher ratings were combined to determine ADHD status. We also estimated the proportion of cases attributable to other conditions.<h4>Results</h4>Overall, 15.5% of our sample met DSM- (4th ed.; text rev., DSM-IV-TR) criteria for ADHD (95% CI [14.6%, 16.4%]); 42% of cases reported no previous diagnosis. With additional information, other conditions explained 9% of cases.<h4>Conclusion</h4>The prevalence of ADHD in this population-based sample was considerably higher than 3% to 7%.

Participants were a community sample of 275 parents (34.2% African American, 36.7% Caucasian, and 29.1% Hispanic) of children ages 9-13 years old who rated the extent to which potential barriers in 3 broad domains (stigma-related, logistical, and socioeconomic) would prevent or delay them from obtaining services. They also rated internalizing and externalizing problems exhibited by their child. Overall, parents reported greater socioeconomic and stigma-related barriers to obtaining mental health services than medical services. Hispanic parents reported socioeconomic and stigma-related barriers as more inhibiting than did African-American parents. Findings highlight the importance of strengthening relationships between mental health care providers and the community to reduce the stigma associated with seeking mental health treatment for children and better educating parents about the potential benefits of treatment. Policy focused on educating parents about their insurance options and improving insurance coverage may help to reduce socioeconomic barriers.}, Doi = {10.1037/a0038701}, Key = {fds253530} } @article{fds253534, Author = {Rabiner, DL}, Title = {Stimulant prescription cautions: addressing misuse, diversion and malingering.}, Journal = {Current psychiatry reports}, Volume = {15}, Number = {7}, Pages = {375}, Year = {2013}, Month = {July}, ISSN = {1523-3812}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11920-013-0375-2}, Abstract = {As prescriptions for stimulant medication to treat ADHD have increased, so have concerns about the nonmedical use and diversion of stimulant medication, especially among college students.

Because young adults with ADHD who attend college have experienced greater academic success during high school than many peers with the disorder, which is likely to be associated with better overall functioning, the degree to which they experience similar patterns of adjustment difficulties was not initially known. Accumulating research suggests that college students with ADHD experience less academic success and greater psychological and emotional difficulties than other students and use alcohol and drugs at higher rates. However, conclusions to be drawn from this research are limited by the use of small samples that may not be representative of the wider population of students with ADHD, and a lack of diagnostic rigor in identifying students with ADHD to be included in such research. Studies of the effectiveness of psychosocial treatments, medication treatment, and academic accommodations are extremely limited or nonexistent. Issues particularly germane to college students include feigning ADHD and the misuse and diversion of stimulant medication. Given that at least 25 % of college students with disabilities are diagnosed with ADHD, methodologically sound investigations are clearly needed in order to better understand the impact of ADHD on college students’ adjustment and to develop and implement interventions that can enhance students’ success.}, Doi = {10.1007/s13311-012-0127-8}, Key = {fds253544} } @misc{fds213702, Author = {D.B.

The selective intervention was evaluated within the context of a multi-site trial involving random assignment of 37 schools to four conditions: a universal intervention composed of a student social-cognitive curriculum and teacher training, a selective family-focused intervention with a subset of high-risk students, a condition combining these two interventions, and a no-intervention control condition. Two cohorts of sixth-grade students (total N = 1,062) exhibiting high levels of aggression and social influence were the sample for this study. Analyses of pre-post change compared to controls using intent-to-treat analyses found no significant effects. However, estimates incorporating participation of those assigned to the intervention and predicted participation among those not assigned revealed significant positive effects on student aggression, use of aggressive strategies for conflict management, and parental estimation of student’s valuing of achievement. Findings also indicated intervention effects on two targeted family processes: discipline practices and family cohesion. Mediation analyses found evidence that change in these processes mediated effects on some outcomes, notably aggressive behavior and valuing of school achievement. Results support the notion that changing parenting practices and the quality of family relationships can prevent the escalation in aggression and maintain positive school engagement for high-risk youth.}, Key = {fds213702} } @article{fds253540, Author = {Murray, DW and Rabiner, DL and Hardy, KK}, Title = {Teacher management practices for first graders with attention problems.}, Journal = {Journal of attention disorders}, Volume = {15}, Number = {8}, Pages = {638-645}, Year = {2011}, Month = {November}, url = {http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20837985}, Abstract = {<h4>Objective</h4>To examine whether teacher reports of accommodations and interventions for inattentive first graders are consistent with best practice guidelines.<h4>Method</h4>A total of 36 teachers completed the Teacher Management Questionnaire (TMQ) for 92 students in five predominantly low-income, minority schools.

RESULTS: A total of 45 participants (5.3%) reported the onset of nonmedical ADHD use between the two survey administrations. The majority of these students were high substance users as freshman. Attention difficulties also predicted the onset of nonmedical use, especially in the absence of excessive substance use. Compared with other nonmedical users of ADHD medication, those reporting attention difficulties had lower GPAs, greater academic concerns, and higher levels of depressive symptoms.

Families Program of the Multisite Violence Prevention Project (MVPP), a four-site collaboration examining student, teacher, and family interventions for middle school students. Teachers recruited two cohorts of sixth grade students, recognized as being aggressive and influential with their peers, and their families into a voluntary, 15-session weekly program. Among the 643 families that consented (66%), the mean number of sessions attended was 8.13, with almost half (48.3%) attending 11 or more sessions. Linear mixed models (LMMs) were developed to predict the number of sessions attended based on a cluster of demographic variables and scales designed to measure aggression, problem behaviors, family factors, and other psychosocial constructs. Three of the nine clusters held significance when associated with attendance: level of aggression as rated by the child (negative association), parent-child bond (negative association), and level of child victimization (positive association). Somewhat surprisingly, the variance component due to interventionist turned out to be small and to constitute a nonsignificant component of the overall variability in attendance. Results suggest that family recruitment for multiple family group programs can be achieved with substantial effort and that resources available for recruitment might be differentially applied across families based on predictors of attendance. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.}, Doi = {10.1002/jcop.20361}, Key = {fds253548} } @article{fds253549, Author = {Rabiner, DL and Murray, DW and Skinner, AT and Malone, PS}, Title = {A randomized trial of two promising computer-based interventions for students with attention difficulties.}, Journal = {Journal of abnormal child psychology}, Volume = {38}, Number = {1}, Pages = {131-142}, Year = {2010}, Month = {January}, url = {http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19697119}, Abstract = {Few studies have examined whether attention can be improved with training, even though attention difficulties adversely affect academic achievement.

METHOD: One hundred fifteen students, attending two universities, with prescriptions for ADHD medications completed a Web survey in spring 2007. RESULTS: Eighty-nine of 115 students (69%) used their ADHD medications as prescribed, whereas 36 (31%) had misused during college by taking larger or more frequent doses than prescribed or by using someone else's medication. Nine students (8%) reported intranasal use during the previous 6 months, and 30 (26%) had diverted medications to peers. Misuse was associated with impulsivity and with other substance use. Enhancing the ability to study outside of class was students' primary motive for misuse, but nonacademic reasons were also reported. Students who misused ADHD medications generally felt that doing so was helpful. CONCLUSIONS: Although most students use their ADHD medication as prescribed, misuse and diversion is not uncommon. Because enhancing academic performance was the primary motive for misuse, the results raise questions about whether undergraduates with ADHD perceive their treatment as adequate and the extent to which physicians and students communicate about issues related to medication adjustments.}, Doi = {10.1177/1087054708320414}, Key = {fds253551} } @article{fds253552, Author = {Dodge, TMVPPKA and member}, Title = {The ecological effects of universal and selective violence prevention programs for middle school students: A randomized trial}, Journal = {Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology}, Volume = {77}, Number = {3}, Pages = {526.-542.}, Year = {2009}, ISSN = {0022-006X}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0014395}, Abstract = {This study reports the findings of a multisite randomized trial evaluating the separate and combined effects of 2 school-based approaches to reduce violence among early adolescents.

In contrast, the selective intervention was associated with decreases in aggression but no changes in victimization.

This was explained by higher rates of inattentive symptoms among students with ADHD and was unrelated to hyperactive-impulsive symptoms. Among students with ADHD, medication treatment was not related to better adjustment or diminished ADHD symptoms.

The effects of the universal intervention were evaluated within the context of a design in which two cohorts of students at 37 schools from four sites (N=5,581) were randomized to four conditions: (a) a universal intervention that involved implementing a student curriculum and teacher training with sixth grade students and teachers; (b) a selective intervention in which a family intervention was implemented with a subset of sixth grade students exhibiting high levels of aggression and social influence; (c) a combined intervention condition; and (d) a no-intervention control condition. Short-term and long-term (i.e., 2-year post-intervention) universal intervention effects on social-cognitive factors targeted by the intervention varied as a function of students' pre-intervention level of risk. High-risk students benefited from the intervention in terms of decreases in beliefs and attitudes supporting aggression, and increases in self-efficacy, beliefs and attitudes supporting nonviolent behavior. Effects on low-risk students were in the opposite direction. The differential pattern of intervention effects for low- and high-risk students may account for the absence of main effects in many previous evaluations of universal interventions for middle school youth.

RESULTS: Using self-report of pediatricians, the collaborative consultative service increased the use of evidence-based practices by pediatricians, but no difference in children's ADHD symptomatology was observed between the groups. However, many pediatricians did not fully use the collaborative consultative services. Those children who actually received collaborative consultative services showed significant behavioral improvement compared with children not receiving these services.

We screened 362 of 424 (85%) children in grades 1 to 5 in 4 schools.<h4>Results</h4>According to parent reports, 43 children (12%) had previously been diagnosed with ADHD by a health professional.

The association between boys' coerciveness with their mothers and social acceptance by peers appeared to be mediated by the aggressiveness of their interactions with their peers.}, Doi = {10.1037/0012-1649.30.3.325}, Key = {fds253535} } @article{fds253570, Author = {Volling, B and MacKinnon Lewis and C and Rabiner, DL}, Title = {Problematic social situations and children's peer status: Further explorations of aggression, social withdrawal, and peer rejection}, Journal = {Development and Psychopathology}, Volume = {5}, Pages = {459-484}, Year = {1994}, Key = {fds253570} } @article{fds253568, Author = {Rabiner, DL and Keane, SP and MacKinnon-Lewis, C}, Title = {Children's Beliefs About Familiar and Unfamiliar Peers in Relation to Their Sociometric Status}, Journal = {Developmental Psychology}, Volume = {29}, Number = {2}, Pages = {236-243}, Publisher = {American Psychological Association (APA)}, Year = {1993}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0012-1649}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/0012-1649.29.2.236}, Abstract = {In this study, children's general beliefs about familiar and unfamiliar peers were examined in relationship to their sociometric status and their experience with parents.

Rejected children evinced significantly fewer competencies (e.g., peer group entry, responses to provocation) than popular, average, or neglected children but differed from controversial children only with respect to their inability to meet established social norms for cooperative behavior and teachers' expectations for classroom behavior. An examination of the heterogeneity of peer-rejected children revealed that rejected-aggressive children were deficient in all aspects of social competence assessed and were most disliked by their peers. Rejected-withdrawn children were seen by peers as most unhappy, whereas rejected-undifferentiated children (i.e., rejected children who were neither highly aggressive nor highly withdrawn) had problems with social withdrawal, disruptive behavior, and socially appropriate behavior. Rejected-aggressive and rejected-withdrawn children had more difficulties with reactive aggression combined with an inability to respond positively to peers than their nonrejected agemates. The need for further research on the heterogeneity of peer-rejected children and the long-term implications for these children are discussed. © 1993, Cambridge University Press.

Participants were read a series of short vignettes describing children in potentially conflictual interactions, and their ideas about handling these situations were coded according to the degree to which individual and relational goals were integrated. As predicted, aggressive rejected boys and “residual” rejected boys provided less integrated responses than nonrejected boys, and this was true regardless of whether automatic or reflective social reasoning processes were evoked. In contrast to our prediction, however, submissive rejected boys displayed no comparable goal coordination deficit. The implications of these findings for children's social competence are discussed.

Large and persisting positive and negative successive contrast effects followed a single shift in concentration. Forcing the drinking to occur in short bouts by withdrawing the drinking tube elevated total intake above the level established by the positive and negative contrasts. The drinking returned to baseline when uninterrupted drinking was permitted. Maximum drinking occurred with 10- and 20-min interruptions of 2-min drinking periods. Consecutive daily interrupted drinking sessions did not produce further increases in drinking, as might have been predicted by opponent process theory or by a classical conditioning interpretation. It was suggested that the persistence of the positive and negative contrasts was dependent on the limited past experience of the animals with the saccharin taste, and that the enhancement of drinking by interruption may depend on the increased excitement produced by drinking tube withdrawal and the reduction of the excitement by reintroduction of the tube. © 1988 Psychonomic Society, Inc.}, Doi = {10.3758/BF03209374}, Key = {fds253564} } %% Chapters in Books @misc{fds201602, Author = {McCabe, S.E. and Cranford, J.A. and Teter, C.J. and Rabiner, D.L. and Boyd, C.J}, Title = {Use, misuse and diversion of scheduled prescription medications by college students}, Pages = {36-62}, Year = {2011}, Key = {fds201602} } @misc{fds40699, Author = {D.L.

The development of aggression and other forms of antisocial behavior has been a central concern in the field of developmental psychopathology (1), and a large body of research has focused on elucidating the development of these behaviors. As will be evident, however, current developmental models do not always distinguish aggression and other antisocial acts. Whenever possible, this review will focus specifically on aggression, and we will describe one developmental model that explicitly illustrates different pathways to aggression versus other antisocial behaviors. In addition to reviewing prominent theories on the development of aggression, we will also consider social information processing approaches to understanding aggressive behavior, discuss risk factors that cut across developmental models, and outline prevention and treatment efforts as they relate to these models. Although we recognize the importance of genetic and physiologic factors in the development of aggression, consideration of these factors is beyond the scope of the current chapter (see 2, 3 for reviews).}, Key = {fds339842} } @misc{fds40709, Author = {Lochman, J.E. and Meyer, B.L. and Rabiner, D.L. and White, K.J.}, Title = {Parameters influencing aggressive children's social problem solving}, Volume = {5}, Pages = {31-63}, Booktitle = {Advances in Behavioral Assessment of Children and Families}, Publisher = {London: Jessica Kinglsey Publishers}, Editor = {R.J.
