| Abstract: | Children’s behavior was assessed with 3 cross-sectional random-digit-dial telephone surveys
conducted 11 months before, 4 months after, and 6 months after September 11, 2001. Parents
reported fewer behavior problems in children 4 months after the attacks compared with the
pre-September 11 baseline. However, 6 months after the attacks, parents’ reporting of behavior
problems was comparable to pre-September 11 levels. In the 1st few months after a disaster, the
identification of children who need mental health treatment may be complicated by a dampened
behavioral response or by a decreased sensitivity of parental assessment to behavioral problems. |
