Indeed, the siblings of these children are not insulated from these consequences and may experience elevated levels of psychological distress, placing them at increased risk for developing mental disorders. This protocol describes the methodology for a scoping review that will examine how mental disorders in children impact the mental health of their sibling(s). Further, we aim to examine the role of sex, gender, birth order, age of each child, and familial factors (e.g., parent mental illness, family structure), in sibling mental health. The proposed review will also identify resources that aim to support the needs of siblings of children with mental disorders. Taken together, this proposed review aims to take a fundamental step towards determining intervention targets to reduce the transmission of risk between siblings.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n<jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The proposed scoping review aims to address the following questions: i) how do mental disorders (in children &lt;18 years of age) impact the mental health of their sibling(s) (also &lt;18 years of age)? ii) Can we identify resources designed to address the needs of siblings of children with mental disorders?<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n<jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We will conduct the proposed scoping review in keeping with the six-stage Arksey and O\u2019Malley Framework and the scoping review methodology provided by the Joanna Briggs Institute. In section i) we outline our research questions. In section ii) we describe our process for identifying studies that examine the mental health of siblings of a child with a mental disorder and studies that provide evidence on resources directed specifically at these siblings. We will search peer-review and grey literature published between 2011 and 2022 from OVID MEDLINE, OVID EMBASE, CINAHL Complete, Proquest Nursing and Allied Health, PsycINFO (via APA platform), Proquest Sociology Collection and Web of Science Core Collection and Proquest Theses and Dissertations. Section iii) describes our process for selecting relevant studies. In sections iv and v, we describe our methods for charting and summarizing relevant data. Finally, in section vi) we describe our integrative knowledge translation plan that aims to include knowledge users in interpretating and translating evidence gathered from the proposed review.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0274135","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,15]],"date-time":"2022-09-15T17:53:52Z","timestamp":1663264432000},"page":"e0274135","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Examining the mental health of siblings of children with a mental disorder: A scoping review protocol"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2833-2501","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"John E.","family":"Krzeczkowski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Terrance J.","family":"Wade","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Brendan F.","family":"Andrade","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dillon","family":"Browne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8335-6779","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Busra","family":"Yalcinoz-Ucan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0674-177X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Negin A.","family":"Riazi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Yates","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Tagalakis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Karen A.","family":"Patte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"pone.0274135.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"62","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-7610.2006.01659.x","article-title":"The prevalence of mental health problems in children 1[1\/2] years of age\u2014the Copenhagen Child Cohort 2000.","volume":"48","author":"AM Skovgaard","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Child Psychol Psychiatry"},{"issue":"1","key":"pone.0274135.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"8","DOI":"10.1097\/01.chi.0000184929.41423.c0","article-title":"10-year research update review: the epidemiology of child and adolescent psychiatric disorders: II.","volume":"45","author":"EJ Costello","year":"2005","journal-title":"Developmental epidemiology.
