Abstract:
Abstract:Children with neurodevelopmental disorders not only have low cognitive and communication functions, but also have a high incidence of psychological problems, resulting in a huge burden for their family and society. Our study aims to introduce the mental health status of children with major neurodevelopmental disorders, including intellectual disability, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorders, and developmental dyslexia; analyze the association of mental health with neurodevelopment and emphasize the importance of mental health on children development; and discuss how to promote their mental health and further improve their quality of life.
