Indigenous infants have a higher risk of CP than non-Indigenous infants, especially postneonatal CP.
Our aim was to study was to investigate how negative peer interactions on/offline are associated with each and with other daily interactions among adolescents.
This reconstructed total population cohort paper investigates the relationship between cerebral palsy & pregnancy induced hypertension.
The Kids Research Institute Australia and Bankwest partnered together from 2019-2022 to develop a cyber safety app that provides parents and carers with the knowledge and skills to help their children thrive in a digital world.
The Australian Spasticity Assessment Scale complies with the definition of spasticity and is clinically feasible in paediatric settings
Siblings of individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs) experience distinct challenges and have unique strengths compared to siblings of individuals without NDCs.
This paper is a timely reminder that we must recognise infants at high risk of cerebral palsy earlier using evidence-based assessments.
Fathers remain less likely to participate in parenting interventions which can limit their ability to receive support and build their parenting capacity. The advent of social media has engendered novel opportunities for fathers to connect with, and support, one another in the form of online peer support. Growth of these online communities exemplifies the demand from fathers to relate to other fathers who are navigating parenthood. However, the benefits of membership to these communities remain unclear.
This study explores how the first wave of the COVID‐19 pandemic influenced family routines, relationships and technology use (smartphones and tablet computers) among families with infants. Infancy is known to be an important period for attachment security and future child development, and a time of being susceptible to changes within and outside of the family unit.

Recent studies have reported that strengths-based programs, leveraging autistic adolescents' abilities and interests, could improve their skills and facilitate social engagement. However, little is known about the long-term impact of strengths-based approaches. This study aimed to explore the long-term outcomes of community strengths-based programs designed to support autistic adolescents in developing interests and skills in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) and the factors influencing their participation in these programs.
