Published Online:December 21, 2012https://doi.org/10.1024/1422-4917/a000209

Abstract

Die Epidemiologie beschäftigt sich mit der Häufigkeit und der Art des Auftretens von Erkrankungen in bestimmten Gruppen der Gesellschaft. Umfangreiche Studien mit solider Datenlage können mittlerweile zeigen, dass psychische Störungen in der Gruppe der Kinder und Jugendlichen weltweit häufige Phänomene sind. Im vorliegenden Review soll ein Überblick über aktuelle und relevante Studien geboten werden. Internationale und deutschsprachige Arbeiten zu Häufigkeit, Diagnoseverteilung, Verlauf sowie zur unterschiedlichen geschlechtlichen Verteilung von psychischen Störungen in der Altersgruppe der Kinder und Jugendlichen werden vorgestellt. Weiters wird auf methodische Herausforderungen in der Befunderhebung Bezug genommen. Originalarbeiten werden mit Zitaten aus aktuellen Lehrbüchern ergänzt.

According to the literature available, mental disorders in children and adolescents are a common phenomenon worldwide. This article provides a review of the most important and recent international studies on the magnitude, on patterns of distribution, on the course and on gender differences of psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. Additional data from scientific textbooks are added to the original articles.
