Abstract
The results indicate that there are more vulnerability factors in this group of children comparing to their peers; in particular, a greater likelihood of having parents with a history of mental health and alcoholism and greater frequency of intellectual disability in their mothers. Likewise, they had a greater probability of having suffered physical abuse. The screening revealed the existence of greater alterations on the scale of social and thought problems, as well as a greater probability of being referred for treatment and greater use of psychotropic medication.
