Charting the trajectories of adopted children's emotional and behavioral problems

Paine et al. · Development and Psychopathology

Wales Adoption Cohort data modelled internalising and externalising difficulties over time and associations with pre-adoption risk and parental warmth.

Limitations: Parent-reported outcomes; cohort of 96 families. No adoption-sector organisational relationship identified in the bibliographic material screened. This is not confirmation of institutional independence; affiliations, funding and conflicts were not comprehensively audited. The Wales Adoption Cohort Study received funding from Health and Care Research Wales, a Welsh Government body. Funding does not by itself establish government commissioning or an adoption-service affiliation. Evidence-provider note: adoptive parents supplied some or all questionnaire/interview assessments of the adoptee’s outcomes. These proxy reports are not the adoptee’s own account; other evidence sources, where present, are described in the summary.
