Verbal Abuse related to self esteem damage and unjust blame harms mental health and social interaction in college population
Scientific Reports, 2019Co-Authors: Geumsook Shim, Je Yeon Yun, Bumseok JeongAbstract:Verbal Abuse is an emotional Abuse intended to inflict intense humiliation-denigration-fear as perceived by exposed person. Network-based approaches have been applied to explore the integrative-segregated patterns of associations among the psychological features and external stimuli for diverse populations; few studies reported for Verbal Abuse effects in college population. Self-reporting measurements acquired form 5,616 college students were used for network analyses. Escalating cascades of Verbal Abuse from differential sources (parents, peers, or supervisors; network 1) and directed associations among Verbal Abuse severity-psychopathology-social interaction (network 2) were estimated using the directed acyclic graphs. Principal connectors of Verbal Abuse–psychopathology–social interaction were shown using the graph theory metrics calculated from the intra-individual covariance networks (network 3). Directed propagating patterns of Verbal Abuse phenomena differed by source (network 1). Severe peer-related Verbal Abuse affected psychomotor changes and influenced irritability (network 2). Verbal Abuse of self-esteem damage and unjust blame served as connectors in the Verbal Abuse-psychopathology-social interaction; influence of smartphone overuse-related distress was stronger in cases with more severe Verbal Abuse (network 3). Verbal Abuse that damages self-esteem and conveys unjust blame harms mental health and social interaction for college population.

Anatomical and Neurochemical Correlates of Parental Verbal Abuse: A Combined MRS—Diffusion MRI Study
Frontiers Media S.A., 2019Co-Authors: Dohyun Kim, Jae Hyun Yoo, Young Woo Park, Minchul Kim, Dong Woo Shin, Bumseok JeongAbstract:Despite the critical impact of parental dialog on children who remain physically and psychologically dependent, most studies have focused on brain alterations in people exposed to moderate-to-high levels of emotional maltreatment with/without psychopathology. We measured metabolites in the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex (pgACC) acquired with single-voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and anatomical connectivity assessed with probabilistic tractography in 46 healthy young adults who experienced no-to-low level parental Verbal Abuse (paVA) during their childhood and adolescence. The partial least square regression (PLSR) model showed that individual variance of perceived paVA was associated with chemical properties and structural connectivity of pregenual anterior cingulate cortex (pgACC; prediction R2 = 0.23). The jackknife test was used to identify features that significantly contributed to the partial least square regression (PLSR) model; a negative association of paVA was found with myo-inositol concentration, anatomical connectivities with the right caudate and with the right transverse temporal gyrus. Of note, positive associations were also found with the left pars triangularis, left cuneus, right inferior temporal cortex, right entorhinal cortex and right amygdala. Our results showing both a negative association of frontal glial function and positive associations of anatomical connectivities in several networks associated with threat detection or visual information processing suggest both anatomical and neurochemical adaptive changes in medial frontolimbic networks to low-level paVA experiences

preliminary evidence for white matter tract abnormalities in young adults exposed to parental Verbal Abuse
Biological Psychiatry, 2009Co-Authors: Jeewook Choi, Ann Polcari, Bumseok Jeong, Michael L Rohan, Martin H TeicherAbstract:Background Psychiatric sequelae of exposure to parental Verbal Abuse (PVA) appear to be comparable with that of nonfamilial sexual Abuse and witnessing domestic violence. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was used to ascertain whether PVA was associated with abnormalities in white matter (WM) tract integrity. Methods 1271 healthy young adults were screened for exposure to childhood adversity. Diffusion tensor imaging was collected on 16 unmedicated subjects with history of high-level exposure to PVA but no other form of maltreatment (4 male/12 female subjects, mean age 21.9 ± 2.4 years) and 16 healthy control subjects (5 male/11 female subjects, 21.0 ± 1.6 years). Group differences in fractional anisotropy (FA), covaried by parental education and income, were assessed using tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS). Results Three WM tract regions had significantly reduced FA: 1) arcuate fasciculus in left superior temporal gyrus, 2) cingulum bundle by the posterior tail of the left hippocampus, and 3) the left body of the fornix. Fractional anisotropy in these areas was strongly associated with average PVA scores ( r s = −.701, −.801, −.524, respectively) and levels of maternal Verbal Abuse. Across groups, FA in region 1 correlated with Verbal IQ and Verbal comprehension index. Fractional anisotropy in region 2 was inversely associated with ratings of depression, dissociation, and limbic irritability. Fractional anisotropy in region 3 was inversely correlated with ratings of somatization and anxiety. Conclusions Exposure to PVA may be associated with alteration in the integrity of neural pathways with implications for language development and psychopathology.

American Journal of Psychiatry, 2010Co-Authors: Martin H Teicher, Jacqueline A Samson, Yishin Sheu, Ann Polcari, Cynthia E McgreeneryAbstract:Objective:Previous studies have shown that exposure to parental Verbal Abuse in childhood is associated with higher rates of adult psychopathology and alterations in brain structure. In this study the authors sought to examine the symptomatic and neuroanatomic effects, in young adulthood, of exposure to peer Verbal Abuse during childhood. Method:A total of 848 young adults (ages 18–25 years) with no history of exposure to domestic violence, sexual Abuse, or parental physical Abuse rated their childhood exposure to parental and peer Verbal Abuse and completed a self-report packet that included the Kellner Symptom Questionnaire, the Limbic Symptom Checklist–33, and the Dissociative Experiences Scale. Diffusion tensor images were collected for a subset of 63 young adults with no history of Abuse or exposure to parental Verbal Abuse selected for varying degrees of exposure to peer Verbal Abuse. Images were analyzed using tract-based spatial statistics. Results:Analysis of covariance revealed dose-dependent ef...

sticks stones and hurtful words relative effects of various forms of childhood maltreatment
American Journal of Psychiatry, 2006Co-Authors: Martin H Teicher, Jacqueline A Samson, Ann Polcari, Cynthia E McgreeneryAbstract:Objective: Childhood maltreatment is an important psychiatric risk factor. Research has focused primarily on the effects of physical Abuse, sexual Abuse, or witnessing domestic violence. Parental Verbal aggression has received little attention as a specific form of Abuse. This study was designed to delineate the impact of parental Verbal aggression, witnessing domestic violence, physical Abuse, and sexual Abuse, by themselves and in combination, on psychiatric symptoms. Method: Symptoms and exposure ratings were collected from 554 subjects 18–22 years of age (68% female) who responded to advertisement s. The Verbal Abuse Questionnaire was used to assess exposure to parental Verbal aggression. Outcome measures included dissociation and symptoms of “limbic irritability,” depression, anxiety, and anger-hostility. Comparisons were made by using effect sizes. Results: Verbal aggression was associated with moderate to large effects, comparable to those associated with witnessing domestic violence or nonfamilial sexual Abuse and larger than those associated with familial physical Abuse. Exposure to multiple forms of maltreatment had an effect size that was often greater than the component sum. Combined exposure to Verbal Abuse and witnessing domestic violence had a greater negative effect on some measures than exposure to familial sexual Abuse. Conclusions: Parental Verbal aggression was a potent form of maltreatment. Exposure to multiple forms of Abuse was associated with very large effect sizes. Most maltreated children had been exposed to multiple types of Abuse, and the number of different types is a critically important factor.

incidence and mental health impact of sexual orientation victimization of lesbian gay and bisexual youths in high school
School Psychology Quarterly, 2002Co-Authors: Anthony R Daugelli, Neil W Pilkington, Scott L HershbergerAbstract:This study examined victimization during high school based on sexual orientation of 350 lesbian, gay, or bisexual (lgb) youths aged 21 and younger. Experiences of direct victimization as well as knowledge of other lgb youths’ victimization were assessed. Over half reported Verbal Abuse in high school because of their sexual orientation, and 11% said they had been physically assaulted. Youths who were more open in high school about their sexual orientation and who had a history of more gender atypical behavior were victimized more often. Male youths were targeted significantly more often than females. Youths’ current mental health symptoms, especially traumatic stress reactions, were associated with having experienced more Verbal Abuse in high school.

the impact of victimization on the mental health and suicidality of lesbian gay and bisexual youths
Developmental Psychology, 1995Co-Authors: Scott L Hershberger, Anthony R DaugelliAbstract:Lesbian, gay, and bisexual youths 15 to 21 years old were studied to determine the impact of Verbal Abuse, threat of attacks, and assault on their mental health, including suicide. Family support and self-acceptance were hypothesized to act as mediators of the victimization and mental health-suicide relation. Structural equation modeling revealed that in addition to a direct effect of victimization on mental health, family support and self-acceptance in concert mediated the victimization and mental health relation. Victimization was not directly related to suicide. Victimization interacted with fam ily support to influence mental health, but only for low levels of victimization
