    Open AccessTessa Reardon, Obioha C Ukoumunne et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Psychology and…2026

    BACKGROUND: Providing accessible CBT for young children identified as at risk for anxiety disorders through screening in schools could reduce later problems. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of parent-led CBT delivered via online and telephone call support alongside usual school provision, compared to usual school provision only for young children identified through screening as having at least one risk. METHODS: We conducted a prag…

  • How can children and young people have a voice in urban treescapes

    Open AccessSimon Carr, Abi Hackett et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2025

    Scientific understanding of climate change has, to date, failed to result in sufficient action. This paper proposes that a deficit model of top‐down learning and dissemination in relation to public engagement with science may be part of the problem, particularly when considering the attitudes, values and empowerment of children and young people. Drawing on two cross‐university projects funded by the Future of UK Treescapes programme, in which chi…

  • Forestation in CMIP6: Wide model spread in tree cover and land carbon uptake

    Open AccessSabine Egerer, David M Lawrence et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    Forestation is expected to play an significant role as a terrestrial carbon dioxide removal technology in low-emission scenarios by storing carbon in the biosphere, thereby changing the physical properties of the land surface. To represent land use change, including afforestation and reforestation (AR), Earth system models (ESM) that contribute to the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) draw on common projected land use data fro…

Eighteen parents of children aged 2–16 years from diverse backgrounds, living in the UK, were interviewed one-to-one about their experiences. Ten professionals working with children and families were also interviewed to gain a broader perspective of parents’ experiences. Using Reflexive Thematic Analysis, four themes were developed: (a)…

  • How the Covid-19 Pandemic Affected Young People’s Mental Health and Wellbeing in the UK: A Qualitative Study

    Open AccessSamantha Pearcey, Lowrie Burgess et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescent Research2023References: 4

    There is emerging evidence of the detrimental impact of the pandemic and associated restrictions on young people’s mental health in the UK, but to date, these data have been largely quantitative. The aim of the current study was to gain a deeper understanding of young people’s experiences in relation to their mental health and wellbeing during the pandemic. Seventeen young people, aged 11 to 16 years, sampled for diverse characteristics, and livi…

  • Why do children and adolescents (not) seek and access professional help for their mental health problems? A systematic review of quantitative and qualitative studies

    Open AccessJerica Radez, Tessa Reardon et al.ARTICLEEuropean Child & Adolescent…2021

    Mental health disorders in children and adolescents are highly prevalent yet undertreated. A detailed understanding of the reasons for not seeking or accessing help as perceived by young people is crucial to address this gap. We conducted a systematic review (PROSPERO 42018088591) of quantitative and qualitative studies reporting barriers and facilitators to children and adolescents seeking and accessing professional help for mental health proble…

  • The role of maternal anxiety disorder subtype, parenting and infant stable temperamental inhibition in child anxiety: A prospective longitudinal study

    Open AccessPeter J Lawrence, Cathy Creswell et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Psychology and…2020

    BACKGROUND: Social anxiety disorder (SAD) aggregates in families. To elucidate intergenerational transmission of risk, we examined whether childhood SAD and symptoms of anxiety were prospectively predicted by stable infant temperamental inhibition, maternal SAD, maternal generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and maternal parenting behaviours. METHODS: We conducted a longitudinal study beginning prenatally with follow-up at 4, 10, 14 and 58 months po…
