摘要
The present report summarizes the epidemiologic research on childhood psychopathology that has been carried out in different cultural settings over the past 15 years from either an empirical or a diagnostic perspective. Prevalence and risk factor findings are summarized and contrasted. Some controversies surrounding cross-cultural research are discussed and methodological recommendations applicable to cross-cultural epidemiologic research are provided.
