Title Stress-related Psychopathology: Emergence and Course from Childhood to Young Adulthood
Description In this seminar, we examine the relationships between social stressors (both chronic and acute) and the onset and progression of mental disorders (e.g., depression, borderline personality disorder, and trauma-related disorders). We explore the underlying mechanisms from a biopsychosocial perspective. The primary focus is on childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood, as these are the developmental periods during which many stress-related disorders first become fully manifest. In greater depth, we discuss transdiagnostic symptom domains (e.g., emotion dysregulation) and the behaviors that are often associated with them (e.g., risk-taking behaviors and self-harm). The seminar integrates perspectives on normative developmental processes (e.g., changes in stress regulation during puberty) with perspectives on therapeutic interventions and expectable trajectories of mental disorders and associated behaviors.
