Long-term Effects of Experiencing Childhood Parental Death on Mental and Physical Health: A NESDA Study

The current study was based on data of the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety (NESDA) to investigate mental health (i.e., depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and suicidal ideation) and physical health (i.e., metabolic syndrome, telomere length, and perceived physical health) outcomes as well as health behavior (i.e., smoking status, alcohol use, and physical activity) to provide more insight into the long-term outcomes after experiencing childhood parental death (CPD).
