A qualitative study. BMC Psychiatry.  ISSN 1471-244X.  19(1), s 1- 12 . doi: 10.1186/s12888-019-2080-0 Show summary

  Background There is emerging evidence for the effectiveness of psychodynamic psychotherapy for depressive disorders. However, we know less of how this relation-focused therapy mode is experienced and what the patients themselves identify as helpful. Hence, the purpose of this study is to explore adolescents’ experiences of factors promoting improvement in psychodynamic therapy. Methods Eight female patients participating in a Norwegian study on psychodynamic therapy, the First Experimental Study of Transference Work – In Teenagers (FEST-IT), were included. The participants were offered a total number of 28 sessions. Semi-structured qualitative interviews about experiences with therapy were then conducted and analysed with systematic text condensation and hermeneutic interpretation. Results The analysis revealed four main themes. ‘Exploring oneself’ comprises autonomy and acknowledgment, openness, insight and acceptance of oneself. ‘Therapist relation and characteristics’ includes confidence and trust in and support from the therapist as well as having a trustworthy and experienced therapist. ‘Focusing on everyday life’ includes learning and practical orientation. ‘Time factors’ refers to duration and frequency. Conclusions Together with a supportive and listening therapist, the adolescents improve by exploring themselves within the frames of a time-limited treatment period. Improvement seems to be experienced through better relations to oneself and to others and by finding one’s place in the family, or at school. Adolescents value problem solving and help with concrete challenges. Hence, therapy should be tailored to the needs of adolescents with depression and incorporate the challenges they face in their everyday life.

  According to psychoanalytic and psychodynamic theory, insight is an important mechanism which may lead to better interpersonal functioning. In the present paper we have summarized empirical studies attempting to shed some light on insight as a putative mediator of treatment effects. Two case examples illustrate how improved insight might lead to clinical change.

  Background Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a lifelong condition which carries great cost to society and has an extensive comorbidity. It has been assumed that ADHD is 2 to 5 times more frequent in boys than in girls. Several studies have suggested developmental trajectories that link ADHD and certain personality disorders. The present study investigated the prevalence of ADHD, common Axis I disorders, and their gender differences in a sample of adolescent outpatients. We also wanted to investigate the relationship between ADHD and personality disorders (PDs), as well as how this relationship was influenced by adjustment for Axis I disorders, age and gender. Methods We used a sample consisting of 153 adolescents, aged 14 to 17 years, who were referred to a non-specialized mental health outpatient clinic with a defined catchment area. ADHD, conduct disorder (CD) and other Axis I conditions were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). PDs were assessed using the Structured Interview for DSM-IV Personality (SIDP-IV). Results 13.7 % of the adolescents met diagnostic criteria for ADHD, with no significant gender difference. 21.6 % had at least one PD, 17.6 % had CD, and 4.6 % had both ADHD and a PD. There was a significantly elevated number of PD symptoms in adolescents with an ADHD diagnosis (p = 0.001), and this relationship was not significantly weakened when adjusted for age, gender and other Axis I disorders (p = 0.026). Antisocial (χ 2 = 21.18, p = 0.002) and borderline (χ 2 = 6.15, p = 0.042) PDs were significantly more frequent in girls than in boys with ADHD. Conclusions We found no significant gender difference in the prevalence of ADHD in a sample of adolescents referred to a general mental health outpatient clinic. Adolescent girls with ADHD had more PDs than boys, with antisocial and borderline PDs significantly different. The present study suggests that ADHD in girls in a general outpatient population may be more prevalent than previously assumed. It especially highlights the importance of assessing antisocial and borderline personality pathology in adolescent girls presenting with ADHD symptoms.

  Background Substance use disorders (SUDs) constitute a major health problem and are associated with an extensive psychiatric comorbidity. Personality disorders (PDs) and SUDs commonly co-occur. Comorbid PD is characterized by more severe addiction problems and by an unfavorable clinical outcome. The present study investigated the prevalence of SUDs, PDs and common Axis I disorders in a sample of adolescent outpatients. We also investigated the association between PDs and SUDs, and how this association was influenced by adjustment for other Axis I disorders, age and gender. Methods The sample consisted of 153 adolescents, aged 14–17 years, who were referred to a non-specialized mental health outpatient clinic with a defined catchment area. SUDs and other Axis I conditions were assessed using the mini international neuropsychiatric interview. PDs were assessed using the structured interview for DSM-IV personality. Results 18.3 % of the adolescents screened positive for a SUD, with no significant gender difference. There was a highly significant association between number of PD symptoms and having one or more SUDs; this relationship was practically unchanged by adjustment for gender, age and presence of Axis I disorders. For boys, no significant associations between SUDs and specific PDs, conduct disorder (CD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were found. For girls, there were significant associations between SUD and BPD, negativistic PD, more than one PD, CD and ADHD. Conclusions We found no significant gender difference in the prevalence of SUD in a sample of adolescents referred to a general mental health outpatient clinic. The association between number of PD symptoms and having one or more SUDs was practically unchanged by adjustment for gender, age and presence of one or more Axis I disorders, which suggested that having an increased number of PD symptoms in itself may constitute a risk factor for developing SUDs in adolescence. The association in girls between SUDs and PDs, CD and ADHD raises the question if adolescent girls suffering from these conditions may be especially at risk for developing SUDs. In clinical settings, they should therefore be monitored with particular diligence with regard to their use of psychoactive substances.

  Background: During recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the benefits of the early detection and treatment of personality disorders in adolescents. Previous studies of adults have shown that the number of personality disorder criteria met is negatively correlated with a patient’s quality of life and general functioning. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of personality disorders, particularly with regard to the correlation between the number of personality disorder criteria fulfilled and self-perceived quality of life. Distribution according to gender and age in a clinical sample of adolescent outpatients were also considered. Method: This study included 153 adolescents between the ages of 14 and 17 years who were referred to a mental health outpatient clinic. Personality disorders were assessed using the Structured Interview for DSM-IV Personality. Quality of life was assessed using the Youth Quality of Life Instrument - Research Version, which is a 41-item questionnaire that covers broad aspects of quality of life. Axis I disorders were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Results: Results demonstrated that 21.6% of the adolescents met the diagnostic criteria for at least one personality disorder. A relationship between the number of personality disorder criteria met and reduced quality of life was found. No significant gender differences with regard to the prevalence of each of the personality disorders were revealed. Adjustment for the presence of Axis I disorders did not appreciably affect these findings Conclusion: The present study indicates that reduced quality of life as a result of the number of personality disorder criteria met affects adolescents in much the same way that it does adults. This further emphasizes the clinical importance of including quality of life assessment as part of the general diagnostic procedures used with adolescents.

  Aim: There is an emerging empirical support for the effect of psychodynamic psychotherapy in adolescents. However, there is lack of knowledge in how psychodynamic therapy works for depressed adolescents, how they experience the therapy process and the factors contributing to positive change. Little is known when it comes to adolescent patients’ own experiences of what they found helpful and leading to less symptoms and better interpersonal relationships. The aim of this study was to explore what adolescents themselves recognised as helpful during therapy. Method: An interview guide was developed, focusing on the experiences of the therapy process from the adolescents’ point of view, and what they after treatment identified as helpful factors. Main topics were on how therapy was experienced, what within therapy was helpful – or not so helpful, and how therapy affected important relations and areas in the adolescents’ everyday life. Explorative, semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine, female adolescents. The interviews lasted for approximately one hour, was audio recorded and transcribed verbatim. The transcripts were analysed with thematic content analysis, looking for similarities and differences among the adolescents’ utterances. Results: During the analysis of the transcribed interviews, thematic areas emerged. They were categorised in three main groups with several sub themes. The main areas were Exploring of self, Relational work, and Time. Discussion: Categories and themes will be presented and discussed. Keywords: Psychotherapy change, adolescent depression, patients’ perspective.

  Panel Title: Dynamic mechanism, dynamic change, and the depressed adolescents’ experience of change in psychodynamic therapy. Presenters: Randi Ulberg (Moderator), Elisabeth Ness, Peter Tallberg and André Løvgren, University of Oslo Discussant: eleni.vousoura, Greece. The First Experimental Study of Transference Work–In Teenagers (FEST–IT) is a randomized clinical trial with a dismantling design. The study is aimed to explore the effects of transference work in psychodynamic psychotherapy for adolescents with depression. 70 patients aged 16 to 18 years are randomized to one of two treatment groups with or without focus on transference work. Three papers from FEST-IT will be presented. The first paper focuses on case formulations exploring the dynamic mechanisms using a structured guideline for case formulations. The second presentation investigates whether it is possible to measure dynamic change during therapy using an assessment tool, the Psychodynamic Functioning Scales (PFS), originally developed for adults. The third presentation is a qualitative study on how the young patients experienced psychodynamic psychotherapy.

  Aim: The structured discussion aims at encourage a dialogue among members of TREATME and SPR in Europe on the future direction in youth psychotherapy research. Method: The COST Action TREATME is aimed at establishing a sustainable European multidisciplinary researcher network focusing on individualized psychotherapy for young people with mental disorders. 50% of lifetime mental health disorders start by the age of 14, and the number increases to 75% by the age of 24. Mental disorders in youth are associated with direct and indirect costs including personal distress, costs to family and friends, high healthcare costs, barriers to employment and job performance, poverty and economic deprivation and social exclusion. The “Roadmap for Mental Health Research in Europe” concludes on the need for coordinated and multidisciplinary efforts to improve knowledge on individualized psychological treatment for young people. Psychotherapy works for the most frequent mental disorders such as anxiety and depression. Different psychotherapy modalities work on average equally well. However, little is known about how different treatment modalities work (the mechanisms of change/mediators) and for whom (moderators). Thus, empirically informed individualized treatment cannot be delivered. The panel members presents the focus of the five Working Groups in TREATME: The need for more knowledge on putative moderators and mediators (WGs 1&2), age customized measures and research designs (WGs 3&4), communication with stakeholders on what works for whom and how in youth psychotherapy. Discussion: How can psychotherapy researchers meet the European challenge on improving knowledge on individualized psychotherapy for young people? Keywords: youth psychotherapy, moderators, mediators, age customized process and treatment measures age customized study designs,

  Hva er overføringstolkninger? Hva er overføringsarbeid? Forståelsen av begrepene og metodeanvendelsen i arbeid med overføringsfenomener i behandling av ungdom, variere sterkt. En norsk studie peker i retning av at enkelte undergrupper av voksne pasienter har spesielt god nytte av terapi med overføringsfokus. Forfatterne lurer derfor på om det kan være slik for enkelte ungdommer også. Er det aktuelt å bruke overføringstolkninger i arbeid med ungdom når sentrale temaer viser seg i relasjonen til terapeuten? Kan denne intervensjonsformen brukes i korttidsterapier? Forfatterne prøver å bidra til en begreps-avklaring omkring overføringstolkninger og overføringsarbeid samt når det kan brukes og hvordan.
