Abstract

Background: Social restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic had a major impact on the mental health of children. Yet, analyses on the mental health of younger children in the later course of the pandemic are scarce. The present study assessed 8- to 11-year-olds’ internalising disorder symptoms during the last three weeks, from the third week of February through to the first week of March, of the 2021 national lockdown.
