About

The objective of the study is to evaluate the benefit of day care in a child psychiatric hospital on the return to school and on the development of child psychiatric disorders associated with Anxious Social Refusal.

Full description

This is a prospective, longitudinal, single-center observational cohort study carried out on a population of patients followed in a day hospital for anxious school refusal.

Participating physicians will have the opportunity to recruit their patients over a 12-month period. All enrolled patients will be followed for a minimum of 10 months. The study will be completed as soon as the last enrolled patient has completed a final assessment.

Aside from the baseline visit, each patient will be assessed only once at 10 months. During each patient visit with the investigating physician, the physician will complete an assessment on the electronic CRF.
