Social, separation and generalized anxiety disorders in young people are relatively common and impairing, with a high level of comorbidity
We used data from a large Australian population to determine the independent and moderating effects of maltreatment and parental SSDs on early childhood.
Almost of 10% of children with FASD has significant motor impairment. Evaluation of motor function should routinely be included in assessments for FASD.
Childhood maltreatment and history of parental SSD are associated independently with poor early childhood social-emotional functioning
There was widespread agreement of the need for more information and training about FASD to optimise outcomes for people with FASD engaging with justice system
Findings confirm substantial reductions in heart rate variability across psychiatric disorders, and remained significant even in medication-free individuals
