We assessed as risk\/protective factors several family social structure characteristics (e.g., presence of grandparents, number of siblings in the home) of particular relevance to non-Western countries. Epidemiological data using the Child Behavior Checklist and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire were collected at 60 sites in 10 of Vietnam\u2019s 63 provinces selected to provide a nationally representative sample, which included 1,314 adult informants of children 6 to 16 years of age, and 591 children aged 12 to 16. Vietnamese children\u2019s mental health functioning was reported overall to be better by approximately a third standard deviation than the international average; this international difference was particularly large for externalizing (behavior) problems as compared with internalizing (emotional) problems, suggesting that a cultural problem suppression model may be operating in Vietnam. Significant variability in mental health problems was found across provinces, emphasizing the need for nationally representative samples when conducting child mental health epidemiological surveys. Contrary to many other studies, in Vietnam higher SES was found to be a risk factor for attention\/hyperactivity problems. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1037\/ipp0000016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,28]],"date-time":"2014-04-28T17:20:26Z","timestamp":1398705626000},"page":"139-153","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["A Nationally Representative Epidemiological and Risk Factor                     Assessment of Child Mental Health in Vietnam"],"prefix":"10.1027","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Bahr","family":"Weiss","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology and Human                     Development, Vanderbilt University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Minh","family":"Dang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Education, Vietnam National                     University, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lam","family":"Trung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danang Psychiatric Hospital, Danang City,                     Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Minh Cao","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Education, Vietnam National                     University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nguyen Tam Hong","family":"Thuy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Psychology Department, Ho Chi Minh City                     Psychiatric Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amie","family":"Pollack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology and Human                     Development, Vanderbilt University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"101","reference":[{"key":"atypb1","volume-title":"Manual for the ASEBA school-age form & profiles","author":"Achenbach T.
