The role of pubertal development in the association between trauma and internalising symptoms in female youth

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Exposure to trauma in childhood is associated with an increased risk for internalising symptoms. Alterations in pubertal development has been proposed as a potential mechanism underpinning this association. However, longitudinal studies, which are needed to examine pubertal development over time, are scarce.

Psychoneuroendocrine stress response in female and male youth with major depressive disorder

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Exposure to psychosocial stress is one of the strongest risk factors for major depressive disorder (MDD) in youth, but underlying neurobiological mechanisms are poorly understood. Previous studies on the neuroendocrine stress response in youth with MDD are scarce, limited to cortisol, and rarely considered sex differences.
