Internalizing and externalizing behaviors in high school adolescents in a northern border city of Mexico and their type of family
CONCLUSIONS: We detected a moderate prevalence of internalizing behaviors in Mexican adolescents, predominantly among women, and also observed that not living with a nuclear family increases the odds of presenting internalizing behaviors. It is important that parents, teachers, and healthcare workers remain vigilant to detect these problems in a timely manner and develop interventions to improve the mental health and well-being of adolescents.PMID:37696116 | DOI:10.1016/j.aprim.2023.102743
