Title: | Factors influencing the course of mental disorders in childhood and beyond | Authors: | Stathis, S. Coghill, D. Guastella, A. J. Middeldorp, C. M. Scott, J. G. Tunbridge, M. |
Issue Date: | 2019 | Source: | 53 , 2019, p. 50-51 | Pages: | 50-51 | Journal: | Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry | Abstract: | Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that about 50% of the children with mental disorders still fulfil the criteria for a mental disorder in adulthood. Objectives: The symposium discusses factors influencing course of childhood psychopathology and possible interventions to prevent poor outcome. Methods: The symposium will start off with a presentation about the role of genetic and other familial factors influencing childhood psychopathology, including anxiety, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and behavioural problems. The other presentations will focus on specific disorders or symptoms (i.e. aggression, social problems and ADHD). Findings: All mental problems in childhood show some continuity into adulthood, but there is also variation in course. Conclusions: Interventions should particularly focus on improving long-term outcomes for childhood psychopathology.L6276966442019-05-21 | DOI: | 10.1177/0004867419836919 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L627696644&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0004867419836919 | | Keywords: | depression;human;mental disease;problem behavior;social problem;child;attention deficit hyperactivity disorder;anxiety;conference abstract;aggression;adultadulthood | Type: | Article |
