Abstract: | The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the mental health of the Dutch population, especially among youth. The Integrated Health Monitor COVID-19 showed an increase in the prevalence of psychological complaints among youth from during the lockdown in December 2021. When all COVID-19 restrictions were relaxed, the prevalence of psychological complaints dropped, but not to the same level as before the lockdown. These findings suggest the possible existence of a distinct subgroup among Dutch teenagers and young adults who have not yet experienced complete recovery from the psychological repercussions triggered by the preceding lockdown measures. Therefore, this study aimed to identify different classes of youth with similar mental health trajectories after the COVID-19 pandemic and to explore the correlates of trajectory class membership. |
