Prepare residents to work as part of the interdisciplinary teams144 that transform FCPMHs into hubs for medical neighborhoods.161. Simply put, successfully implementing a public health approach that prevents childhood toxic stress and promotes SSNRs will require FCPMHs to put relational health at the center of everything they do.172, There is an emerging evidence base that social isolation is on the rise and detrimental to both individual173 and community health.174 Social scientists have documented the fragmentation of society at the community level175 as well as its negative impact on how communities view their collective stewardship of their most treasured resource: their children.176 Psychologists have decried a crisis of connection and point to a culture that values the self over relationships and individual successes over the general welfare, leading to declining levels of empathy and trust.177 Epidemiologists have demonstrated that an individuals degree of social isolation is a powerful predictor of mortality, much like traditional clinical risk factors (eg, obesity or hypertension) or ACE scores.178 Both epidemiologists and economists have pointed to increasing levels of inequity as correlating with poorer levels of overall health for both the impoverished and the wealthy.174 Finally, physiologists have long known that social deprivation in childhood alters the programming of the bodys stress response.179,180. ecobiodevelopmental (EBD) framework to stimulate fresh thinking about the promotion of health and prevention of disease across the lifespan. (2) Challenge to Dominant Ideology: CRT challenges the claims of neutrality, objectivity, colorblindness, and meritocracy in society. Acknowledge that a wide range of adversities, from discrete, threatening events to ongoing, chronic life conditions, share the potential to trigger toxic stress responses and inhibit the formation of SSNRs. Transactional theory emphasizes that: Social dominance, school bullying, and child health: what are our ethical obligations to the very young?

If properly funded, FCPHMs are well placed to implement the following functions: screening for behavioral and developmental risk factors and diagnoses, including mental health conditions, developmental delays, SDoHs, and family-level risk and resilience factors; care coordination, linking families to community-based supports to address SDoHs, parenting concerns, developmental delays, and behavioral and mental health concerns; integrated behavioral health and family support services through colocated, interdisciplinary teams that include case management, behavioral health services, and positive parenting programs; preventive and dyadic mental health services that do not requiring a psychiatric diagnosis code for payment, thereby enabling the deployment of primary and secondary prevention strategies before the emergence of behavioral or medical disorders; enhanced payment for prolonged medical visits, allowing for more patient-centered communication, interdisciplinary care, and development of therapeutic alliances; and. Recent research suggests that this dyadic need to connect promotes the development of biobehavioral synchrony between parents and infants.119,120 Feldman119 states, Such coordination is observed across four systems: the matching of nonverbal behavior; the coupling of heart rhythms and autonomic function; the coordination of hormone release [eg, oxytocin following contact with both mothers and fathers]; and brain to brain synchrony [eg, coordinated brain oscillation in alpha and gamma rhythms]. Because the human brain is so immature at birth, the infant is dependent on this biobehavioral synchrony not only for survival but also for laying the foundation for future self-regulation and social-emotional skills. Perhaps the most important critique of Kohlberg's theory is that it may describe the moral development of males better than it describes that of females (Jaffee & Hyde, 2000). Become hubs for medical neighborhoods, horizontally integrating a wide array of local efforts and early childhood initiatives that not only support families with resources and programs but also advocate for the public policies that promote safe, stable, and nurturing families and communities. To translate this relational health framework into clinical practice, generative research, and public policy, the entire pediatric community needs to adopt a public health approach that builds relational health by partnering with families and communities. An FCPMH is not a building or place; it extends beyond the walls of a clinical practice. Scientists now theorize that toxic stress causes epigenetic changes that allow trauma to be transmitted over the generations. It calls for pediatricians to serve as both front-line guardians of healthy child development and strategically positioned, community leaders to inform new science-based strategies that build strong foundations for . For example, significant adversity in the last trimester of pregnancy is associated with methylation of the childs glucocorticoid receptor gene.76 In adults, the methylation of this gene is associated with the expression of fewer glucocorticoid receptors in the brain.5 Because cortisol downregulates its own production via negative feedback loops in the brain that use glucocorticoid receptors, children with fewer glucocorticoid receptors would be expected to have higher cortisol levels and be more irritable and harder to console.77 These changes could be considered adaptive and beneficial in the short-term because they might prepare the newborn infant for a stressful world in which the infant may need to be more vocal to have his or her needs met. Of the 3 principles, this is the one that aligns most clearly with the core functions of the FCPMH and is, therefore, the primary focus of this policy statement. The 3 principles described above, each of which is grounded in the research literature, provide a science-based framework for developing innovative strategies to promote SSNRs at the dyadic level, family level, and community level. For example, the AAP currently recommends screening parents for postpartum depression90 and food insecurity.87,88 Similarly, when clinical markers for an individual childs biological sensitivity to context9194 (see the Appendix for a glossary of terms, concepts, and abbreviations) are available, children of high (versus low) sensitivity may also benefit from different types of interventions.95 In concordance with a layered public health approach, these various targeted interventions will supplement but not replace the universal primary preventions. Eco-biodevelopmental models are advocated by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and these models offer insights into the neurobiological processes associated with environmental factors and the ways in which these processes may be addressed to improve outcomes. a randomized controlled study, Parent-child interaction therapy: a manualized intervention for the therapeutic child welfare sector, Parent-child interaction therapy: an evidence-based treatment for child maltreatment, Accumulating evidence for parent-child interaction therapy in the prevention of child maltreatment, Parent and child trauma symptoms during child-parent psychotherapy: a prospective cohort study of dyadic change.

Solutions Manual for Lifespan Development Canadian 5th Edition by Boyd A public health approach that includes primary universal preventions to promote wellness (like promoting positive parenting practices), secondary targeted interventions for those deemed to be at risk for poor outcomes (like using biomarkers both to identify those at higher risk and to monitor the effectiveness of various interventions), and tertiary evidence-based treatments for the symptomatic (like referring to providers trained in TF-CBT).
Childhood trauma can alter developing brain, creates lifetime of risk Finally, to develop the physician leadership for the FCPMHs of the future, pediatric training programs will need to: Educate residents about the ecobiodevelopmental model and the implications for not only health care but education, juvenile justice, and public policy. To promote SSNRs at the practice level, both financial incentives (eg, payment reforms) and enhanced training needs to be provided.162,163 Pediatric providers should be afforded the following: (1) sufficient time with patients and families, (2) the benefit of long-term continuity with patients and families, and (3) opportunities to learn about and practice the interpersonal and communication skills needed to form respectful, trusted, and collaborative therapeutic relationships.162 For parents to trust, pediatric providers need to listen and understand parental concerns and beliefs before making recommendations. Secondary preventions in the toxic stress framework are focused on identifying individuals at high risk for poor outcomes resulting from toxic stress responses by using population-based risk factors (eg, ACE scores) or emerging biomarkers (eg, methylation patterns).

Available at: https://psych.utah.edu/research/labs/biological-sensitivity.php. The concept of childhood toxic stress taps into a rich literature on the biology of adversity and explains the danger in overlooking significant adversity in childhood. If nothing else, pandemic-mandated stay-at-home orders should increase our collective awareness of the distress associated with being socially isolated or vulnerable. Ecobiodevelopmental Theory b. Overview of Domain-Specific Theories. In this way, the victims play an active role in communicating with and understanding the offenders, and the offenders have the chance to take responsibility for their actions, identify steps that might prevent offending behaviors in the future, and redeem themselves in the eyes of the victims and community (as per Garner and Saul17). Although this term is frequently used to refer to the childs experiences (child ACEs), it has also been applied to the adversities that parents experienced during their own childhoods (parental ACEs).

ecobiodevelopmental theory asserts that: Drawing on a framework produced by the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University,192 this policy statement highlights the following 3 science-informed principles to prevent toxic stress responses and to build healthy, resilient children. Similarly, advocating for a Health in All Policies approach could advance health equity and minimize family and community distress by addressing the underlying economic inequities.198200 The commitment of the AAP to decreasing family stress is manifest in many of its official statements, including poverty,87,88 racism,166 maternal depression,90 disasters,152,153 father engagement,196 home visiting,142 and the importance of play.74,197, The strengthening of core life skills (eg, executive function and self-regulation) is needed for families and communities to provide well-regulated, nurturing environments.

Theories that support a relationship-based framework 1. Understanding, practicing, and reinforcing executive functions and self-regulation skills (eg, managing strong emotions, ensuring adequate sleep, and getting regular exercise) is essential because all caregivers need these skills to create the kinds of environments in which children thrive.16,37,59 Whether an adult coaching or skill-building component is incorporated within a FCPMH or connected to it in a collaborative manner, the essential role that these programs play in promoting the healthy development of children is clear, especially for those who are the most disadvantaged.1,16.

Acronym for child-parent psychotherapy; CPP is an evidence-based, psychoanalytic approach for treating dysfunctional parent-child relationships based on the theory that the parent has unresolved conflicts with previous relationships. ecobiodevelopmental theory on the far-reaching developmental implications of early pernicious environmental experiences to address a richer conceptualization of environmental chaos. Ecobiodevelopmental theory asserts that: early experiences create the structure of the brain. Bioecological Systems Theory 3. Domains, timing, and intensity of chaos were predictive of children's mental and physical health. However, policy statements from the American Academy of Pediatrics may not reflect the views of the liaisons or the organizations or government agencies that they represent. Advances in fields of inquiry as diverse as neuroscience, molecular biology, genomics, developmental psychology, epidemiology, sociology, and economics are catalyzing an important paradigm shift in our understanding of health and disease across the lifespan. The use of trusted, supportive relationships within the FCPMH to promote the relational health of families is an emerging focal point for pediatric clinical research, and pediatric primary care is increasingly seen as a venue for fostering social-emotional health.193,194 These universal primary prevention strategies form the base of the public health pyramid (Fig 1 and Table 2), but additional, layered interventions that recognize and address child-level (eg, delays in development and a biological sensitivity to context), family-level (eg, poverty and parent mental illness), and community-level (eg, racism and violence) barriers to SSNRs may also be required for some families, whereas others will need even more intensive, evidence-based treatments (eg, ABC, PCIT, CPP, TF-CBT) to repair relationships that are already strained or compromised. Primary preventions in the relational health framework are focused on how to universally promote the development and maintenance of SSNRs. In the past decade or so, biomedical researchers have proposed an ecobiodevelopmental framework for studying health and disease across the life course . These perspectives offer different interpretations of the nature of society and the role of . 3. In order to develop normally, a child requires progressively more complex joint activity with one or more adults who have an irrational emotional relationship with the child. All authors have filed conflict of interest statements with the American Academy of Pediatrics. The ecobiodevelopmental model suggests that, to improve the likelihood of positive developmental outcomes across the life span, efforts should be made to improve the salient features of the child's environment. Thats number one. The medical home recognizes the family as a constant in a child's life and emphasizes partnership between health care professionals and families (as per the National Resource Center for the Patient/Family-Centered Medical Home at the AAP). Second, it applies this EBD framework to better understand the complex relationships among adverse childhood circum-stances, toxic stress, brain architec-ture, and poor physical and mental health well into . In addition to the domains and timing of chaos, ecobiodevelopmental theory argues that the intensity of environmental chaos is important- that adverse environmental experiences which are deep, prolonged, and extensive are more detrimental to children's health and well-being than unfavorable experiences that . The toxic stress framework may help to define many of our most intractable problems at a biological level, but a relational health framework helps to define the much-needed solutions at the individual, familial, and community levels (see Table 1). Search for other works by this author on: National Scientific Council on the Developing Child, Young Children Develop in an Environment of Relationships: Working Paper No. Driving this transformation are advances in developmental sciences as they inform a deeper understanding of how early life experiences, both nurturing and adverse, are biologically embedded and influence outcomes in health, education, and economic stability across the life span. Children with known adversity but no overt symptoms,18 children with parents who experienced significant adversity as a child,86 and families struggling with the social determinants of health (SDoHs) (eg, poverty leading to food or housing insecurity,87,88 language barriers, or acculturation leading to conflicts within immigrant families89) may benefit from an array of interventions that mitigate specific risk factors.
"An Ecobiodevelopmental Framework and Food Insecurity" by Andrew S. Garner In the decade since the first AAP policy statement and technical report on childhood toxic stress were published, even more evidence has accumulated that: What happens in childhood does not stay in childhood.186,187 Adverse experiences in childhood are not destiny, but for many children, significant adversity bends life-course trajectories for the worse. Employ a vertically integrated public health approach to promote relational health that is founded on universal primary preventions (such as positive parenting programs, ROR, and developmentally appropriate play) but also offers more precise screening for relational health barriers (such as maternal depression, food insecurity, or exposure to racism) as well as indicated treatments to repair strained or compromised relationships (such as ABC, CPP, PCIT, and TF-CBT). For children who are symptomatic or meet criteria for toxic stress-related diagnoses (eg, anxiety, oppositional defiant disorder, or posttraumatic stress), indicated, evidence-based therapies are needed. An ecobiodevelopmental framework also underscores the need for new thinking about the focus and boundaries of pediatric practice.
Module 3 Understanding & Using Theories - HDFS 501 - Studocu Acute threats to childhood wellness such as abuse need to be taken seriously; similar attention should be given to the social inequities and ongoing, chronic life conditions that similarly imperil a childs biological wellness and life-course trajectory. Acronym for safe, stable, and nurturing relationships; these allow the child to feel protected, connected, and competent.
