Child and Adolescent Psychopathology (CAP) text, read Case Study: Neesha Wilson- Phoenix Rising,.

Answer the Post-Case Questions below:

I. In a study of developmental response patterns to maternal depression, Solantaus-Simula (2002) found four response patterns: active empathy, emotional over involvement, indifference, and avoidance. Of the four types, children in the emotional over involvement and avoidance groups demonstrated the most internalizing and externalizing symptoms independent of the mother's level of depression. Furthermore, children in the active empathy group fared best. They did not feel guilty about their parents' depression and were able to discriminate their experiences from those of the depressed parent, supporting Beardlee's theory (1989) of the protective function of self-understanding. The most common response to maternal depression in the active group was to make an effort to cheer up the parent. Discuss these findings in relation to Neesha's case.

II. The way in which a child responds to distress can be strongly influenced by the cultural context in which the circumstances is embedded. Discuss this comment with respect to Neesha's case.

III. After reading the case of Neesha's brother, Tyrone Wilson, discuss the concepts of multifinality and equifinality as they relate to the two cases.
