Description

DOI: 10.13056/acamh.27714



In this Papers Podcast, Assistant Professor Jacqueline Samson and Associate Professor Martin Teicher discuss their co-authored JCPP paper ‘Practitioner Review: Neurobiological consequences of childhood maltreatment – clinical and therapeutic implications for practitioners’ (https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.13883). Jacqueline and Martin are the lead authors of the paper.



There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.



Discussion points include:






  • How childhood maltreatment alters threat detection and the impact of childhood maltreatment on the area and integrity of white matter tracts.

  • What happens in terms of hippocampal and subfield activation.

  • Definition and insight into the concept of latent vulnerability and ecophenotypes, and the impact of maltreatment.

  • The problematic behavioural presentations that you would expect to see in individuals exposed to childhood maltreatment.

  • Evidence-based tools for treatment and how knowledge about alterations in brain functioning changes the clinical approach to treatment.


In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
