Commentary: Modeling the malleable mental health trajectory – a commentary on Oldehinkel and Ormel (2023)
Open Access paper from the JCPP – ‘In their Annual Research Review, Oldehinkel & Ormel argue that psychological and psychiatric researchers should not only compare groups but also focus on the within-person variability using repeated measurements in longitudinal studies to advance our understanding of emotional and behavioral problems. I argue adopting such within-person approaches might also change how we think about causality and might lead us to more successful intervention research.’ Henning Tiemeier

Research Review: Delineating early developmental pathways to ADHD: Setting an international research agenda
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ‘We introduce the recently established Early ADHD Consortium, an international network of investigators engaged in prospective, longitudinal studies of risk for ADHD beginning early in life, conducted within a developmental framework, and which incorporate multimethod approaches. This network seeks to harmonize measures and methodological approaches to increase the potential for data sharing and subsequent impact.’ Meghan Miller (pic) et al.

Research Review: Measuring general mental health in early-mid adolescence: A systematic meta-review of content and psychometrics
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – Adolescent mental health is a major concern and brief general self-report measures can facilitate insight into intervention response and epidemiology via large samples. However, measures’ relative content and psychometrics are unclear. A systematic search of systematic reviews was conducted to identify relevant measures. Louise Black et al.
