Thank you for quoting the topic title "Life with Tic Disorders: From Childhood to Adulthood".
The Frontiers editorial office will be able to provide more information/answer any questions.
As research avenues in the disorder continue to develop, our goal in this Research Topic is to explore different aspects of living with TD along the lifespan from childhood to adulthood for the child themselves, and their significant others in familial, educational, occupational and social environments. This collection of articles aims to reflect on developments in research, theoretical aspects, and treatment possibilities regarding this intriguing developmental disorder. In order to do so, researchers, theoreticians, and therapists from all fields of interest interfacing with TD, are invited to publish their work.
Submissions may focus on the following subthemes:
- Developments in neurological research
- Comorbidity aspects of research and treatment
- Developmental aspects
- Developments in therapy
- Therapy along a life span (psychological, pharmacological, surgical)
- Familial aspects (parents, siblings, partners)
- Educational and employment aspects
- Social aspects of integrating TD patients in different stages of life/development
- Quality of life and related issues along the life span.
Researchers from different fields: Psychiatry, Psychology, Neurology, Pharmacology, Education, Gender, Employment and Social Sciences, Occupational Therapy and other related fields as well as theoreticians from the fields of Humanity Sciences are invited. Submissions may include quantitative, qualitative, and theoretical studies in the form of Original Research, Clinical Trials, Systematic Reviews, Case Studies, Perspectives, Conceptual Analysis, and Policy and Practice Reviews.
