Abstract

One of the most salient purposes of examining the potential existence and predictors of distinct trajectories of mental health during childhood is to enable effective prevention and intervention strategies. More specifically, the aim is to inform an understanding of the types of prevention and intervention strategies that may be effective in reducing risk, as well the time period in which such strategies are going to be most beneficial.
