Abstract
To date, there is limited knowledge of the psychological impact of COVID-19 on U.S. adolescents, particularly those with pre-existing mental health challenges. Using a longitudinal design, the present study examined the impact of COVID-19-related restrictions on mental health symptoms and substance use in a sample of New York City youth.
