Background summary
Psychiatric disorders are common among adolescents and young adults, and
constitute a major burden for the individuals involved as well as for their
families and society as a whole. Still little is known about the etiological
mechanisms underlying the development of psychiatric disorders and pathways
leading to chronic problems. TRAILS offers a unique opportunity to study the
interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors with respect to
trajectories of (mental) health.
Study objective
* To examine the effects and interactions of individual and environmental
factors on the onset and course of mental health problems in adolescents and
young adults.
* To examine the effects and interactions of individual and environmental
factors on the onset and course of physical health problems.
* To identify cues for the development of more effective prevention and
intervention strategies.
* To extend and disseminate knowledge about these topics.

the participant has a romantic relationship for at least a month) will be asked
to fill out a questionnaire as well.
