The Relationship

The present study examined the relationship between developmental patterns of loneliness and psychosocial functioning among adolescents (9–21 years; N = 110, 52% male). Four-wave longitudinal data were obtained from the Nijmegen Longitudinal Study (NLS) on Infant and Child Development. Loneliness was measured at 9, 13, 16, and 21 years of age and anxiety, depression and self-esteem at 9 and 21 years of age. Using k-means cluster analysis, three trajectories of loneliness were identified as “stable low” (56% of the subjects), “high decreasing” (22% of the subjects), and “low increasing” (22% of the subjects). Importantly, trajectories of loneliness across adolescence significantly predicted psychosocial functioning in young adulthood. Both the “high-decreasing” and “low-increasing” loneliness clusters were associated with higher risk of depression and lower self-esteem compared to the “stable low” loneliness cluster. The “low-increasing” loneliness cluster was associated with higher risk of anxiety compared to the “stable low” loneliness cluster. These results indicate that loneliness in adolescence is a vulnerability that manifests itself in higher levels of anxiety and depression and lower self-esteem in young adulthood.

Sex Development

Abstract Our main aim was to explore any associations in mental health, psychosocial functioning and quality of life (QoL) between childhood, adolescence, and adulthood in the same cohort of patients with a difference in sex development (DSD) born from four decades ago up until early 2000. The first part of the study took place in 2002-2004 in a mixed cohort of children and adolescents born with a DSD in 1982 to 2002, compared to a control group. This part involved semi structured interviews and self-reported and proxy reported questionnaires. The second part of the study is a longitudinal study of the same participants 15-20 years later (2018-2020). The participants in part 1 of the study consisted of 33 patients; 24 assigned females (congenital adrenal hyperplasia, androgen insensitivity syndrome, gonadal dysgenesis and ovotesticular DSD) and nine assigned males; all with a hypospadias diagnosis. A key finding was more psychopathology in the adolescents with a DSD, and females with a 46, XX karyotype had more psychosocial problems compared to the 46, XY females. Two of the 16 patients in the follow-up had performed gender reassignment. Less than half of the female participants reported a heterosexual orientation. Another important finding was a correlation between psychosocial function in childhood with later adult QoL. As we do find a correlation with psychosocial problems in adolescence and later adult QoL, it is of great importance to respond to these behaviors in early life and to have a psychological aspect in the follow up.
