X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Title: </strong>Intermediate Pheno
 types Linking Biopsychosocial Risk and Child Psychopathology: The Role of T
 heory of Mind and Executive Functioning<br /><strong>Abstract: </strong>The
 ory of Mind (ToM) and executive functioning (EF) are two neurocognitive abi
 lities that develop rapidly over the preschool period. ToM and EF are highl
 y interrelated\, both behaviourally and neurologically\, and are predictive
  of a host of psychosocial outcomes across the lifespan. In this talk\, I d
 escribe a developmental cascade model of ToM and EF in which key social-cog
 nitive skills in the second year of life are examined as precursors to ToM 
 and EF through their impact on children's nascent language abilities. Furth
 er\, both cumulative social disadvantage and biomedical risk are investigat
 ed as risk factors that increase vulnerability to cognitive morbidity over 
 the early years. ToM and EF are then discussed as plausible 'endophenotypes
 ' connecting genetic variability to externalizing psychopathology in childh
 ood. Finally\, it is suggested that these social and biomedical risks are n
 on-deterministic\, and that positive postnatal socialization experiences wi
 th caregivers may protect children against their deleterious influence. The
  implications for prevention and intervention are discussed\, with the over
 arching suggestion that early programming may help to mitigate the negative
  cascading effects of poor early adaptation on later psychosocial health an
 d development.</p>
