The goal of Prof. Shanahan’s research is to understand risk and protective factors in the development of psychopathology (e.g., depression, anxiety) and problematic substance use in the first decades of life. In her talk, she will provide an overview of her team’s findings on risk and resilience from childhood to young adulthood, drawing on the Great Smoky Mountain Study (GSMS) in the USA and the Zurich Project on Social Development from Childhood to Adulthood (z-proso) in Switzerland. This will include findings on the prevalence and developmental course of psychopathology, adversities associated with an increased the risk of psychopathology, and also protective factors that could increase resilience.
