Secondary Outcomes
At baseline and 6 months, parents reported on their child’s mental health care in the prior 6 months. Parents’ mental health status, a factor associated with child mental health,Immediately following each child’s enrollment visit, GPs were asked (1) if they believed the child or youth had a behavioral or emotional problem warranting treatment and, (2) if so, what treatment they provided (eg, counseling, medication, referral), if any. Independently, parents reported on whether emotional or behavioral problems (the child’s or their own) had been discussed. We asked both parents and GPs about visit content because, in a prior study, we found that parents’ and doctors’ recall could differ.
