A high prevalence of clinically significant mental health problems was found in children affected by the Fukushima disaster in Japan. We reviewed the literature on child mental health to examine how disasters impacted children in Fukushima.
Children's environments, such as family and peer systems, were disrupted by radiation concerns and evacuation. As children struggled with less resources at home and school, they also had to deal with discrimination. Various interventions were implemented, ranging from government financial assistance to several mental health services provided by local care resources to families and children. In addition to organizing such interventions discretely in each microsystem, a collaborative approach involving various intervening entities across multiple levels was deemed necessary for providing comprehensive support to the affected children and their families. To promote the healthy psychological development of children, it is necessary to provide multidimensional support for their families, particularly parents, through multidisciplinary collaboration between professionals involved in child and family care.
日本福岛灾难中受影响的儿童存在较高比例的临床显著心理健康问题。我们回顾了儿童心理健康方面的文献，以探讨灾难对福岛儿童的影响。
儿童的环境，如家庭和同伴系统，受到辐射问题和疏散的干扰。由于儿童在家中和学校的资源减少，他们还不得不应对歧视。实施了各种干预措施，从政府财政援助到当地护理资源向家庭和儿童提供的多种心理健康服务不等。除了在每个微观系统中分别组织此类干预措施外，还认为需要在多个层面上涉及多个干预实体的协作方法，为受影响的儿童及其家庭提供全面支持。为了促进儿童的心理健康发展，有必要通过参与儿童和家庭护理的专业人员之间的多学科合作，为其家庭，特别是父母，提供多维支持。
