Description¶

The commentary's forward-looking recommendation is that the special issue's articles stimulate new research with dual value: work "that would have the potential to advance the field" and that would "also be useful to research professionals working day to day with children and adolescents". New avenues for research are the fourth enumerated element of the commentary, alongside construct integration, interpersonal relationships, and school or cultural contexts.
