Abstract

A study conducted at University Hospital in Tripoli, Libya aimed to determine the prevalence of mental health problems among school children aged 6-15 years. Data was collected from parents and teachers using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The study found that both parents and teachers reported high rates of behavioral and emotional difficulties among the children, with peer relations and conduct problems being the most problematic areas. The researchers concluded that greater investment in child mental health care is needed to address these issues. [Extracted from the article]
