Homelessness and Its Relation to the Mental Health and Behavior of Low-Income School-Age Children.
Buckner, John C.; Bassuk, Ellen L.; Weinreb, Linda F.; Brooks, Margaret G.
Developmental Psychology, v35 n1 p246-57 Jan 1999
Examined the relationship between housing status and depression, anxiety, and problem behaviors among elementary school-aged children from low-income, single-parent, female-headed families. Found that mother-reported problem behaviors were above normal levels for both homeless and poor, housed youths, but self-reported depression and anxiety were not. Housing status was associated with internalizing problem behaviors but not with externalizing behaviors. (JPB)
