TY - JOUR A1 - Treiber, Bernhard A1 - Schneider, Wolfgang T1 - Qualifizierende und varianzreduzierende Wirkungen von Schulklassenunterricht N2 - Schulklassenunterricht soll möglichst vielen Schülern ein möglichst hohes kognitives Leistungsniveau erreichen helfen. Nur wenige Unterrichtsstudien haben bisher jedoch zur Aufklärung jener Lehr-Lern-Bedingungen beigerragen, unter denen sich hohe qualifikatorische und varianzreduktive Wirkungen gleichzeitig erreichen lassen. Die vorliegende Studie greift dafür auf Merkmale einer adaptiv-remedialen Lehr-Lern-Organisation zurück und überprüft ihren Erklärungsgehalt im Mathematikunterricht von 58 fünften Hauptschulklassen. Zur systematischen Entwicklung komplexer Erklärungen und ihrer einzelfallartigen Beurteilung wird ein neu entwickeltes Programmsystem (HYPAG) angewandt. Es fühn zur Auswahl einer Annahmenstruktur, in der Instrumental- und Rahmenbedingungen von Schulklassenunterricht in Wechselwirkung stehen, für sich genommen aber nur mehr hinreichende und darin substiruierbare Bedingungen qualifizierender und varianzreduktiver Unterrichtseffekte sind.

A1 - Schneider, Wolfgang A1 - Knopf, Monika T1 - Individual differences in memory development across the life-span N2 - Experimental research on memory development has typically focused on the description of universal development trends across the life span and the identification of major sources of development within this domain. However, there is a lack of studies investigating the preconditions and effects of interindividual variability within age groups across different memory tasks. Similarly, our knowledge about the stability of interindividual differences across the life span as well as the sources and the amount of intraindividual variability across memory tasks is scarce. In the present chapter, we concentrate on these neglected issues. First, theoretical assumptions concerning the interindividual and intraindividual variability of memory development are discussed. Next, empirical evidence is presented that seems suited to document the importance of these neglected issues. While we try to give a representative account of the literature, the emphasis is on more recent studies of memory development in children and elderly adults conducted in our laboratory. The results demonstrate that age-related changes and individual differences in the knowledge base are particularly important for describing and explaining individual differences in memory develoment. In comparison, the rote of stable individual differences in basic memory capacities in explaining variations in memory development is less clear given tbe conflicting empirical evidence. In the final section of the chapter consequences for future research are discussed.

In two longitudinal studies differences in phonological sensitivity among children before learning to read (at age 6 to 7) were tested with versions of Bradley & Bryant's (1985) oddity detection task. Children's reading and spelling achievements were tested about one year later at the end of grade one, and again at around the age of 10. The main finding was a developmental change in the predictive relationship of rhyme and word-onset awareness. Rhyme awareness was only minimally predictive for reading and spelling achievement at the end of grade one, but gained substantially in predictive importance for reading and spelling achievement in grades three and four. No such predictive improvement was observed for word-onset awareness. It is proposed that rhyme awareness is initially of little importance, because in the first phase of learning to read German children rely heavily on indirect word recognition via grapheme--phoneme translation and blending. The gain in the predictive importance of rhyme awareness is explained by its helpful effect on the establishment of mental representations of written words. Such mental representations allow fast, direct word recognition and orthographically correct spellings. A wareness of larger phonological units is helpful for the efficient establishment of such representations, by allowing connections of recurring grapheme clusters in written words with phonology.

This finding is not consistent with the results of a study by Istomina (1975), conducted in 1948, leading to the concJusion that (a) preschoolers do not use voluntary remembering, and (b) children generally recall better in play situations than in typical experimental settings. In this study, two experiments were conducted to replicate Istomina's research. In the first, it was shown that Istomina's findings were replicable when methodological problems in the procedure were ignored. Experiment 2 improved methodologically upon Istomina's experimental methods and did not produce results to support her concJusions. Four- and 6-year-olds showed voluntary memory in play activities as weH as in laboratory-type settings, and remembered equally weB in both contexts. The results did not support the assumption that memory performance in young children can be substantially facilitated by motivating contexts.

Es wurden 27 Experten und Novizen mit einem durchschnittlichen Alter von knapp 12 Jahren zum ersten Meßzeitpunkt und von 16 Jahren zum zweiten Meßzeitpunkt untersucht. Die Aussteiger aus der Expertisekarriere zeigten bereits bei der Erstmessung schlechtere schachspezifische Gedächtnisleistungen als die übrigen Experten; die Annahme selektiver Aussteiger, die die Aussagekraft querschnittlicher Experten-Novizen-Vergleiche in Frage stellt, wird damit bestätigt. Sowohl für die Experten als auch für die Novizen zeigte sich ein Anstieg der schachspezifischen Gedächtnisleistung von der Erst- zur Zweitmessung.

Mathematics achievement differences among 632 fifth graders were analysed in a longitudinal design and explained in a structural equation framework provided by LISREL, separately for four types of classrooms. The results replicated the findings of an earlier study (Schneider & Treiber, 1984) in that the local nature of achievement models could be demonstrated. That is, the structural components of the causal models could not be generalized across the four groups of classrooms. The inclusion of a second grouping criterion (i. e., achievement gainJ proved useful in that a better model fit was always obtained for classrooms with high achievement gains. As a global model test ignoring group and classroom membership did mask the differential validity of the achievement model in the various subgro.ups, the need for multilevel approaches was emphasized.

N2 - A training study based on the design of Lundberg, Frost & Petersen (1988) was conducted to improve German Kindergarteners' phonological awareness. A total of 371 Kindergarteners participated in the study. The training group (N = 205) participated in a metalinguistic program that lasted for about six months ( 15 minutes per day). The control group did not receive any specific training but participated in the regularkindergartenpro gram. Indicators of phonological awareness and other metalinguistic and cognitive variables were assessed both before and after the training. Further, a metalinguistic transfer test and a spelling test were given at the beginning and the end of first grade, respectively. The results confirmed those of the Danish study in that short- and long-term training effects were obtained. They also illustrate, however, that the quality of training had a significant effect on long-term maintenance.

Further, it could be shown that phonological competencies can be successfully taught even in preschoolers.

Konventioneffe Verfahren der Kausafanafysa hatten sich in der Primärstudie (Schneider 1980) als unökonomisch und wenig aussagekräftig erwiesen, 10 daß in der Sekundäranalvse auf eine flexiblere Prozedur zurückgegriffen wird. Mit diesem Verfahren zur AnaIVse von Strukturgleichungssysteman (LiSREL) ist es möglich, für die Gruppe der Zweitund Viertkläßler Modelle zu entwickeln und zu überprüfen, die mit den Ausgangsdaten kompatibel sind. Als wesentliches Ergebnis zeigt sich, daß die theoretisch postulierte Bedingungsstruktur nur für die Viertkläßler (eingeschränkt) bestätigt werden kann, während für die Schüler der zweiten Klassenstufe ein grundlegend verschiedenes Muster resultiert.

Daraus folgt, daß für die Prüfwörter in normierten Rechtschreibtests zumindest hinreichende Vorkommensfrequenz gewährleistet sein sollte. Diese Frage wird in der vorliegenden Untersuchung am Beispiel des Allgemeinen Schulleistungstests überprüft: für die ausgewählten Klassenstufen kann gezeigt INerden, daß die Vorkommenshäufigkeit der PrüfWÖfter nicht ausreicht und damit wenig geeignet ist, um die tatsächliche Rechtschreibfertigkeit zu erfassen. Der Vergleich mit mehreren eng am Curriculum orientierten Diktatproben kann gleichzeitig die Schwierigkeiten verdeutlichen, die dann entstehen, wenn zuverlässige Bestimmungen der individuellen Rechtschreibkompetenz vorgenommen werden sollen. N2 - While there seems to be a long tradition in educationalliterature postulating astriet connection between spetting ability and test i ntelligence , recent theoretical analyses of the spetting process have emphasized the importance of basic memory skills. As a consequence ward frequency should be controlled in order to test individual spelUng competence. For a specific norm-oriented speUing test the empirical analysis can show that the importance of sufficient ward frequencv has been underestimated.

A1 - Becker, Katja A1 - Jans, Thomas T1 - Sequential treatment of ADHD in mother and child (AIMAC study): importance of the treatment phases for intervention success in a randomized trial JF - BMC Psychiatry N2 - Background The efficacy of parent-child training (PCT) regarding child symptoms may be reduced if the mother has attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The AIMAC study (ADHD in Mothers and Children) aimed to compensate for the deteriorating effect of parental psychopathology by treating the mother (Step 1) before the beginning of PCT (Step 2). This secondary analysis was particularly concerned with the additional effect of the Step 2 PCT on child symptoms after the Step 1 treatment. Methods The analysis included 143 mothers and children (aged 6–12 years) both diagnosed with ADHD. The study design was a two-stage, two-arm parallel group trial (Step 1 treatment group [TG]: intensive treatment of the mother including psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy; Step 1 control group [CG]: supportive counseling only for mother; Step 2 TG and CG: PCT). Single- and multi-group analyses with piecewise linear latent growth curve models were applied to test for the effects of group and phase. Child symptoms (e.g., ADHD symptoms, disruptive behavior) were rated by three informants (blinded clinician, mother, teacher). Results Children in the TG showed a stronger improvement of their disruptive behavior as rated by mothers than those in the CG during Step 1 (Step 1: TG vs. CG). In the CG, according to reports of the blinded clinician and the mother, the reduction of children’s disruptive behavior was stronger during Step 2 than during Step 1 (CG: Step 1 vs. Step 2). In the TG, improvement of child outcome did not differ across treatment steps (TG: Step 1 vs. Step 2). Conclusions Intensive treatment of the mother including pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy may have small positive effects on the child’s disruptive behavior. PCT may be a valid treatment option for children with ADHD regarding disruptive behavior, even if mothers are not intensively treated beforehand. Trial registration ISRCTN registry ISRCTN73911400.

The coronavirus induced disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the resulting public policy responses represent an exceptional situation worldwide and there are hints for adverse psychosocial impact, hence, the study of psychological effects of the pandemic in women during hospitalization for delivery and in the postpartum period is highly relevant. Methods Patients who gave birth during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany (March to June 2020) at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Würzburg, Germany, were recruited at hospital admission for delivery. Biosamples were collected for analysis of SARS-CoV-2 infection and various stress hormones and interleukin-6 (IL-6). In addition to sociodemographic and medical obstetric data, survey questionnaires in relation to concerns about and fear of COVID-19, depression, stress, anxiety, loneliness, maternal self-efficacy and the mother–child bonding were administered at T1 (delivery stay) and T2 (3–6 months postpartum). Results In total, all 94 recruited patients had a moderate concern of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) at T1 with a significant rise at T2. This concern correlated with low to low-medium general psychosocial stress levels and stress symptoms, and the women showed a significant increase of active coping from T1 to T2. Anxiety levels were low and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale showed a medium score of 5 with a significant (T1), but only week correlation with the concerns about SARS-CoV-2. In contrast to the overall good maternal bonding without correlation to SARS-CoV-2 concern, the maternal self-efficiency correlated negatively with the obstetric impairment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusion Obstetric patients` concerns regarding SARS-CoV-2 and the accompanying pandemic increased during the course of the pandemic correlating positively with stress and depression. Of note is the increase in active coping over time and the overall good mother–child-bonding. Maternal self-efficacy was affected in part by the restrictions of the pandemic.

T1 - Genome-wide association study in essential tremor identifies three new loci JF - Brain N2 - We conducted a genome-wide association study of essential tremor, a common movement disorder characterized mainly by a postural and kinetic tremor of the upper extremities. Twin and family history studies show a high heritability for essential tremor. The molecular genetic determinants of essential tremor are unknown. We included 2807 patients and 6441 controls of European descent in our two-stage genome-wide association study. The 59 most significantly disease-associated markers of the discovery stage were genotyped in the replication stage. After Bonferroni correction two markers, one (rs10937625) located in the serine/threonine kinase STK32B and one (rs17590046) in the transcriptional coactivator PPARGC1A were associated with essential tremor. Three markers (rs12764057, rs10822974, rs7903491) in the cell-adhesion molecule CTNNA3 were significant in the combined analysis of both stages. The expression of STK32B was increased in the cerebellar cortex of patients and expression quantitative trait loci database mining showed association between the protective minor allele of rs10937625 and reduced expression in cerebellar cortex. We found no expression differences related to disease status or marker genotype for the other two genes. Replication of two lead single nucleotide polymorphisms of previous small genome-wide association studies (rs3794087 in SLC1A2, rs9652490 in LINGO1) did not confirm the association with essential tremor.

Possible causes for underachievement are low motivational dispositions (need for cognition) and metacognitive competences. This study tested the interplay of these variables longitudinally with gifted and non-gifted students from Germany (N = 341, 137 females) in Grades 6 (M = 12.02 years at t1) and 8 (M = 14.07 years). Declarative and procedural metacognitive competences were assessed in the domain of reading comprehension. Path analyses showed incremental effects of procedural metacognition over and above intelligence on the development of school achievement in gifted students (β = .139). Moreover, declarative metacognition and need for cognition interactively predicted procedural metacognition (β = .169), which mediated their effect on school achievement.

Whereas IQ has been identified as the major predictor variable in a few studies, results from several other developmental investigations suggest that WM may be the stronger predictor of academic achievement. In the present study, data from the Munich Longitudinal Study on the Genesis of Individual Competencies (LOGIC) were used to explore this issue further. The secondary data analysis included data from about 200 participants whose IQ and WM was first assessed at the age of six and repeatedly measured until the ages of 18 and 23. Measures of reading, spelling, and math were also repeatedly assessed for this age range. Both regression analyses based on observed variables and latent variable structural equation modeling (SEM) were carried out to explore whether the predictive power of IQ and WM would differ as a function of time point of measurement (i.e., early vs. late assessment). As a main result of various regression analyses, IQ and WM turned out to be reliable predictors of academic achievement, both in early and later developmental stages, when previous domain knowledge was not included as additional predictor. The latter variable accounted for most of the variance in more comprehensive regression models, reducing the impact of both IQ and WM considerably. Findings from SEM analyses basically confirmed this outcome, indicating IQ impacts on educational achievement in the early phase, and illustrating the strong additional impact of previous domain knowledge on achievement at later stages of development.

T1 - Two truncating variants in FANCC and breast cancer risk JF - Scientific Reports N2 - Fanconi anemia (FA) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder with 22 disease-causing genes reported to date. In some FA genes, monoallelic mutations have been found to be associated with breast cancer risk, while the risk associations of others remain unknown. The gene for FA type C, FANCC, has been proposed as a breast cancer susceptibility gene based on epidemiological and sequencing studies. We used the Oncoarray project to genotype two truncating FANCC variants (p.R185X and p.R548X) in 64,760 breast cancer cases and 49,793 controls of European descent. FANCC mutations were observed in 25 cases (14 with p.R185X, 11 with p.R548X) and 26 controls (18 with p.R185X, 8 with p.R548X). There was no evidence of an association with the risk of breast cancer, neither overall (odds ratio 0.77, 95%CI 0.44–1.33, p = 0.4) nor by histology, hormone receptor status, age or family history. We conclude that the breast cancer risk association of these two FANCC variants, if any, is much smaller than for BRCA1, BRCA2 or PALB2 mutations. If this applies to all truncating variants in FANCC it would suggest there are differences between FA genes in their roles on breast cancer risk and demonstrates the merit of large consortia for clarifying risk associations of rare variants.

Viele Studien der letzten Jahre identifizierten geeignete Positionen im Genom, deren DNA-Methylierung sich altersabhängig verändert. Für den Einsatz dieser Methode in der Routine- bzw. Fallarbeit ist es von großer Bedeutung, angewandte Analysetechniken zu validieren. Als ein Teilaspekt dieser Validierung sollte die Vergleichbarkeit der Analyseergebnisse zur DNA-Methylierung mithilfe der Mini- und Pyrosequenzierung zwischen verschiedenen Laboren evaluiert werden. Die Arbeitsgruppe „Molekulare Altersschätzung“ der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Rechtsmedizin (DGRM) führte hierzu den ersten, technischen Ringversuch durch, der 4 Positionen in den Genen PDE4C, EDARADD, SST und KLF14 umfasste. Diese Marker waren in vorangegangenen Studien als altersabhängige Biomarker charakterisiert worden. Am Ringversuch nahmen 12 Labore teil, wobei jedes die Wahl zwischen der Minisequenzierung und/oder der Pyrosequenzierung für die quantitative Methylierungsanalyse hatte. Jedem teilnehmenden Labor wurden Blut- und Speichelproben von 3 Personen unterschiedlichen Alters übersandt. Die Wahl der Reagenzien für die Probenbearbeitung wurde den Teilnehmern freigestellt. Die Ergebnisse der Minisequenzierung zeigten systematische Abweichungen zwischen den Laboren, die am ehesten auf die Verwendung unterschiedlicher Reagenzien und Analyseplattformen zurückzuführen sein können. Die Resultate der Pyrosequenzierung hingegen wiesen nicht auf systematische Abweichungen zwischen den Laboren hin, hier zeigte sich jedoch die Tendenz einer markerabhängigen Abweichung. Darüber hinaus konnten Unterschiede hinsichtlich technischer Probleme zwischen Laboren mit mehr Erfahrung in der jeweiligen Sequenzierungsmethode und Laboren mit weniger Erfahrung festgestellt werden. Sowohl die Beobachtung von systematischen als auch die von markerabhängigen Abweichungen lässt den Schluss zu, dass eine Übertragung von Analysemethoden zwischen Laboren grundsätzlich möglich ist, eine Anpassung des jeweiligen Modells zur Altersschätzung jedoch notwendig sein kann. N2 - Quantitative analysis of relative DNA methylation is currently one of the most promising methods of molecular age estimation. In recent years numerous studies identified potential DNA methylation markers showing age-dependent changes in their relative methylation state. For routine application of this method validation is an important prerequisite. One aspect of validation is the degree of comparability of analytical data between laboratories. The working group on molecular age estimation of the German Society for Legal Medicine (DGRM) conducted a first technical proficiency test comprising four age estimation markers within the genes PDE4C, EDARADD, SST and KLF14. These positions were previously characterized as age-dependent biomarkers. A total of 12 laboratories participated using pyrosequencing and/or minisequencing techniques for quantitative analysis of DNA methylation. Each laboratory received blood and buccal swab samples from three individuals of different ages. Laboratories were free in their choice of reagents and material for sequencing. Minisequencing results showed systematic deviations between laboratories, which are believed to originate from differing reagents and sequencing platforms. The results of pyrosequencing did not show clear signs of systematic deviation but did show differences in the comparability between markers. Different levels of technical problems were reported, which correlated with the amount of experience with the sequencing technology. Both systematic and specific differences between analytical data produced in different laboratory settings lead to the conclusion that while it is generally possible to transfer an age estimation method to another laboratory, a mathematical model for age estimation might need to be adjusted accordingly.
