“…[1][2][3] Gove and Herb9 have postulated that, throughout childhood and early adolescence, boys have more difficulty than girls because of problems with aggression, school problems, and high sex role expectations. In part, the data in our study support the first two hypotheses; i.e., boys are referred more than girls for aggressive behavior and school …”

“…In an extensive review of the National Institute of Mental Health psychiatric case register (Rosen, Bahn, Shellow, & Bower, 1965), 14-15-year-olds were found to have the highest clinic utilization rates. Other studies have also found mid-adolescence (ages 14-17) to be highly related to service use (Mitchell & Smith, 1981; Roughmann, Babigian, Goldberg, & Zastowny, 1982).…”

“…Two of the variables in Table 1—poor school performance and maternal level of education—were not studied directly but only alluded to. Studies have reported that a high proportion of children were referred by the school system and that the referred children were experiencing school difficulties (Garralda & Bailey, 1988; Mitchell & Smith, 1981; Rosen et al, 1965; Wolff, 1967). Some studies have reported that maternal level of education may be related to use of mental health services.…”

Correlates of mental health and social service utilization are examined based on Ontario Child Health Study data. Findings indicate that psychiatric disorder as a predictor of service use may be confounded by school performance and parental use of services, thus calling into question the extent to which program planning should be based on prevalence rates of child psychiatric disorder. Children from low-income families tend to make greater use of available services, suggesting that programs need to be tailored more specifically to their needs.

Summary The concept of adolescent turmoil is considered in the context of findings from a total population epidemiological study of Isle of Wight 14–15‐yr‐olds. It is concluded that parent child alienation is not a common feature unless the adolescents are already showing psychiatric problems. Inner turmoil, however, as represented by feelings of misery and self‐depreciation is quite frequent. Psychiatric, conditions are only slightly commoner during adolescence than in middle childhood but the pattern of disorders changes in terms of an increase in depression and school refusal. Many adolescent psychiatric problems arise in early childhood but conditions arising for the first time during adolescence differ in important respect from those with an earlier onset.
