Brief Summary

This study titled the Children to Adults Mental and Psychosomatic Health Study (CAMPS), aims to explore the interplay between mental health, psychosomatic factors, and adverse childhood experiences (ACE) across a broad age range, from school-age children to adults in China. The study will involve participants from various educational settings, including teachers, students, and parents, who will be recruited through schools. The assessment methodology will combine validated psychometric scales and behavioral experiments to comprehensively evaluate mental and physical health aspects and the impact of ACEs.
