Expertise
Expertise description
The Research Unit on Children’s Psychosocial Maladjustment (GRIP) investigates psychosocial maladjustment among children, from birth to adolescence, from a developmental perspective.
Its research program is based on three complementary themes:
- The first encompasses studies that describe and predict maladjustment in children. The main objective of this theme is to delineate the prevalence of maladaptation in a given territory, to describe the development of these problems, and to identify risk factors as well as protective factors.
- The second research theme is focused on factors related to family and to factors in the environment, such as peers and the school setting.
- The third research theme focuses on studying interventions aimed at preventing adjustment problems in the young.
The GRIP research program is positioned within the overall body of research on human development conducted by researchers from disciplines as varied as anthropology, biology, criminology, demography, education, genetics, neurosciences, nutrition, pediatrics, psychiatry, psychology, and sociology. A conceptual model using longitudinal‐experimental studies as collaboration vectors integrates these different interdisciplinary perspectives.
Since the very first longitudinal and experimental studies, GRIP researchers have worked closely with families, school personnel and school boards. The GRIP continues to establish these important partnerships with several provincial and federal departments, with para-governmental organizations, as well as with private foundations, in order to conduct new generations of longitudinal and preventive studies and transfer new knowledge to policy makers, to those responsible for services, and to the general public.
