Well-being is a phenomenon widely studied in the health field. Specifically in Psychology, well-being has been studied from different perspectives ranging from the cognitive evaluation of one's own life to positive functioning at different levels. Considering the different perspectives of studying well-being, this study carried out a scoping review with the objective of mapping the main models and instruments used to evaluate the phenomenon in the adolescent population in the last five years. The publication search strategy used the Periodicals Portal of the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), including articles in Portuguese, English and Spanish, peer-reviewed, complete in the databases, with samples between 12 and 18 years old. The main findings of this review indicate a plurality of well-being models that derive from five main approaches, namely subjective well-being, psychological well-being, quality of life, wellness and mixed approaches. The proliferation of well-being models can generate theoretical divergences and conflicting interpretations, which directly impact the generalization of data, compromising the development of health interventions and policies. Also noteworthy is the gap in studies that investigate gender disparities and the nuances of racial and ethnic identity in relation to well-being in adolescence. These gaps suggest the need for more inclusive research that is sensitive to the particularities of adolescents to promote a more complete and effective understanding of well-being at this crucial stage of development.

Experiencing trauma in childhood is a global public health issue linked to worse physical and mental health outcomes, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Self-concept is a transdiagnostic concept linked to various psychopathologies and understanding its unique relationship to trauma is important. This meta-analysis aimed to understand the size of the effect between trauma and maltreatment and self-concept in children and adolescents. The current meta-analysis searched PubMed, PILOTS, PsycINFO, and Web of Science databases. Inclusion criteria involved studies with defined trauma exposure, valid measures of self-concept, and participants’ mean age under 18 years old. One-hundred-and-thirty-four studies were included in the meta-analysis (N = 255,334). A random-effects meta-analysis was performed. A small negative relationship was observed between trauma exposure and self-concept (r = − 0.20, 95% CI − 0.22, − 0.18). This relationship was significantly moderated by some variables (type and nature of trauma exposure) but not others (participant gender, type of self-concept measure, quality of studies, country economic status). A small relationship between trauma exposure and negative self-concept in children and adolescents was detected, with repeated trauma exposure and type of trauma exposure moderating this relationship. This provides important directions for clinical practice around providing support for those exposed or most vulnerable to experiencing trauma.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been extremely stressful worldwide, impacting just about every facet of life. Its impact on children has been the subject of much research since it started in 2019, particularly since the “lockdown” in March 2020. We are only beginning to understand the widespread ramifications of the lockdown and subsequent practices of social distancing and quarantining to prevent the spread of the virus on children, adolescents, and families. This study aimed to present an integrative review of the mental health, academic achievement, and social functioning of children and adolescents since the initial lockdown. While much of the research was focused on the acute phases of the pandemic, we are still left with a lesser understanding of the long-term implications. We reviewed 50 studies examining the impact on youth’s mental health, academic achievement, and social functioning, as well as the risk factors associated with poorer outcomes. We conclude that future research should adopt a broad conceptualization of the biopsychosocial, economic, and cultural impact of the pandemic on children and adolescents.
