The Impact of Life and Adverse Childhood Events on Help-Seeking Behaviours—A Cross-Sectional Survey of School-Age Adolescents in Jordan
The study underscores the need to understand help-seeking patterns among school-age adolescents in light of exposure to traumatic events. Based on this study's findings, special attention should be paid to the impact certain events have on adolescents' mental health and their help-seeking behaviours. Positive help-seeking behaviours that resonate with adolescents' beliefs, emphasising contextual factors in mental health coping, should be promoted.
