Quality of life and mental health in children and adolescents during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic: results of a two-wave nationwide population-based study

Ulrike Ravens-Sieberer et al.

Summary: The German COPSY study is a longitudinal study that examines the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children and adolescents. The study found that during the pandemic, the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children and adolescents decreased, and there was an increase in emotional problems, peer-related mental health problems, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and psychosomatic complaints. Socially disadvantaged children and children of mentally burdened parents were more at risk of impaired mental health, while female gender and older age were associated with fewer mental health problems. A positive family climate and social support supported the mental health of children and adolescents during the pandemic.

COVID-19 school and kindergarten closure relates to children's social relationships: a longitudinal study in Japan

Hiromichi Hagihara et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic led to school closures and affected children's social relationships. This study found that social quarantine did not significantly impact children's socio-emotional behavior, but it did affect their perceived closeness to parents and others. Elementary schoolers felt less close to their parents but closer to peers after schools reopened. These effects were not observed in infants and preschoolers. The follow-up survey after school reopening did not find significant differences in children's socio-emotional behavior and perceived closeness compared to the quarantine period.

School Closures During Social Lockdown and Mental Health, Health Behaviors, and Well-being Among Children and Adolescents During the First COVID-19 Wave A Systematic Review

Russell Viner et al.

Summary: This study reviews the association of school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic with the mental health, health behaviors, and well-being of children and adolescents. The findings suggest that school closures are associated with adverse mental health symptoms and unhealthy behaviors among children and adolescents. However, it is difficult to determine the direct impact of school closures as they are often implemented as part of broader social lockdown measures.

Child behavior problems during COVID-19: Associations with parent distress and child social-emotional skills

Jing Sun et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic and associated government-imposed shutdowns disrupted the lives of school-aged children, potentially leading to an increase in behavior problems. Research found that parent distress and children's social-emotional skills were both related to child behavior problems, with higher parental distress associated with more problems and better social skills linked to fewer problems.

Children's Daily Activities and Well-being during the COVID-19 Lockdown: Associations with Child and Family Characteristics

Vitor H. Oliveira et al.

Summary: This study investigated children's daily activities during the lockdown and post-lockdown period, finding that there was an increase in sedentary behaviors and a decrease in active leisure and playing activities, particularly among socioeconomically vulnerable children. Girls were less physically active but engaged more in play and social activities compared to boys. Factors such as sleep, active leisure, playing and learning activities, and family coping strategies were found to be linked to better overall child well-being.

Marco Franze et al.

Summary: German preschools in socially deprived regions can apply for additional funds to support children with developmental risks. The prevalence rate of a developmental risk in the Attention and concentration domain decreases over time, and the rate of improvements is higher than the rate of deteriorations. This study provides evidence of the effectiveness of targeted intervention measures in improving attention and concentration skills.

Summary: Reports from the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic show that short-term school closures as part of social lockdown measures had adverse effects on mental health and health behaviors among children and adolescents.

Tanja Poulain et al.

Summary: The study found that children's leisure behavior changed during the Covid-19 lockdown, with a decrease in indoor activities and motivation for schoolwork, while outdoor activities increased. Children from lower SES families tended to use more media, engage less in outdoor activities, and had shorter duration and difficulty concentrating on schoolwork in t1. Regular receipt of learning materials from school significantly increased time spent on schoolwork at home.

Summary: Research findings indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the mental health of children and adolescents, although the results are varied.
