oader contextual influences on the health of children and their families. A parental historyof mental disorders is one of the most consistent risk factors for the development of mentaldisorders in children.Contents of Access to Mental <strong>Health</strong> Services ChaptersThe following three sections use data from the Project for the Integration of Mental <strong>Health</strong>Data (PRIMHD) to explore access to mental health outpatient, community and inpatientservices for children and young people with specific mental health diagnoses. Thediagnoses reviewed have been grouped into three clusters, which are loosely based on theage groups most commonly experiencing these conditions:1. Children 0–14 years: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct/disruptive behaviour disorders, parent-child relational problems, autism/pervasivedevelopmental disorders, learning disorders and intellectual disabilities.2. Children and young people 0–24 years: Anxiety disorders, stress reaction/adjustmentdisorders, and eating disorders.3. Young people 15–24 years: Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, personalitydisorders; depression, bipolar disorder and other mood disorders; and substancerelateddisorders (alcohol, cannabis, and other substances). <strong>This</strong> section also includesa small subsection which uses the National Minimum Dataset to explore hospitaladmissions for young people with mental health diagnoses.In addition the In-Depth Topic commencing on Page 368 reviews Mental <strong>Health</strong> Issues inChildren in more detail, while the Suicide and Intentional Self-Harm section commencingon Page 417 considers suicide and self-harm in young people.Cautions Relating to the Methodology UsedBecause PRIMHD data is configured in a very different way to that contained in theNational Minimum Dataset (hospital admissions) the reader is urged to review the methodssection below, in order to become familiar with the strengths and limitations of PRIMHD, aswell as the methodology used in the sections which follow.Further, the information presented in this year’s <strong>report</strong> differs from that presented in theNZCYES’ 2009 Reports, because of differences in the data collections (PRIMHD vs. theMental <strong>Health</strong> Information National Collection (MHINC)) and the coding systems used tocode mental health diagnoses (in PRIMHD the data received were coded in DSM-IV,whereas in MHINC diagnoses were coded using ICD-10-AM).Data Source and MethodsDefinition1.
