Studies in young people of a similar age with CP report lower prevalence of pain than we do—for example, 56% in 11 to 18-year-olds 1 and 62% in 8 to 18-year-olds 2 even though they asked about pain over the previous month rather than the previous week.
The most recent and widely cited household survey reports that at least 10% of 10 to 15-year-olds 1 and 17% of 16 to 19-year-olds 2 have symptoms consistent with a mental health disorder as defined by the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10).

We used a median split to divide the 18 adolescent subjects into older (N = 9; 6 17-year-olds and 3 16-year-olds) and younger groups (N = 9; 3 13-year-olds, 1 14-year-old, 4 15-year-olds, and 1 16-year-old [the youngest of the 4 16-year-olds tested]).
