This thesis is concerned with an exploration of low-intensity treatments for common mental health problems in childhood and adolescence. Part one is a narrative literature review of trials of low-intensity interventions for children and adolescents with depression or anxiety, including bibliotherapy, computerised CBT and attention-bias modification. Part two is a long term follow-up study examining the effects of age, symptom severity and comorbidity at initial assessment on outcomes for children who had received guided CBT bibliotherapy via their parents four years previously. Part three is a critical appraisal of the thesis, considering the wider methodological and conceptual challenges associated with research across the developmental period.
