The unique longitudinal study "Tracking Opportunities and Problems (TOPP)" began following nearly 1,000 children and their families in Norway in 1993. Few studies have ever accumulated such extensive information from such a large number of families. The TOPP Study has provided new knowledge about and insight into the precursors, developmental paths and predictors of both good adaptation and mental health problems of children, as well as into parenting and family relationships.
The editors have collated the key findings in three parts. Part 1 addresses the mental health and development of children and adolescents. Part 2 focuses on parents, looking at individual parental and family-related factors, including parental couple relationships. Part 3 looks at the methodological issues, including the sample, response rate and measurement and analytical approaches.
This unique book provides thought-provoking insights into the TOPP findings to help guide therapeutic practice, to suggest new avenues of research, to inform teaching, and to shape policy planning and preventive actions. It is thus an invaluable resource for all professionals, researchers, educators, policy makers, and students working with children and adolescents and their families.
Dr. Kristin S. Mathiesen, Retired Director of the Department of Child and Adolescent Mental Health, Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Oslo, Norway, planned and started the TOPP study in 1993 and headed the study until 2007. She is particularly concerned with how results from epidemiological studies of children's mental health can inform preventive work and early interventions. Prof. Ann V. Sanson, Department of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne, Australia, has extensive experience in longitudinal research on the social and emotional development of children, adolescents, and young adults. Besides leading long-standing studies in Australia, she advises national studies in Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand. She is a fellow of the Australian Psychological Society and the International Society for the Study of Behavioural Development. Dr. Evalill B. Karevold, Associate Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Oslo, Norway, researches and teaches developmental psychology. Her main field of research is temperament and emotional development in children and adolescents, and how thei family and social context influence such development. She has extensive experience in longitudinal research, including running the TOPP Study for several years.
