Orphans no more: a commentary on anxiety and African American youth

Angela Neal-Barnett. J Clin Child Adolesc Psychol. 2004 Jun.

Abstract

Conducting research on anxiety disorders among African American children and adolescents, prior to the early 1990s was considered an "orphan area" of psychology. The articles in this section, first authored by a new generation of researchers, appear to set a direction for future research. The findings underscore the importance of including culturally relevant variables in the assessment of African American children's anxiety and its disorders.
