Two hypotheses were proposed: (1) would significantly predict hyperactivity/inattention, (2) mediate association hyperactivity/inattention. serial mediated model confirmed both hypotheses, suggesting that higher rates associated with levels Parent problems also found positively this relation. Our results may be used improve sociopsychological interventions population near future. They contribute clinical definition therapeutic paths for families.

Exposure EWEs childhood is traumatic, with ramifications for mental health specifically. Symptoms posttraumatic stress, depression, anxiety all been associated EWE exposure persist under certain circumstances. Conversely, many survivors also demonstrate resilience experience only transient symptoms. While majority studies focused effects resulting from one specific type disaster (hurricanes), we synthesized literature across various types EWEs. We describe psychological symptoms behavior, long-term effects, protective factors risk factors. What this paper adds Climate change-related phenomena such extreme impact mood behavior children.
