Communication about social-emotional well-being can be challenging for primary care clinicians for various reasons including lack of time, training and expertise, resource constraints, and cognitive burden. Therefore, we explored clinicians' perspectives on identifying and communicating with caregivers about social-emotional risk in toddlers.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>In 2021, semistructured interviews were conducted with pediatric clinicians (N = 20) practicing in Federally Qualified Health Centers in a single metropolitan area. Most participants identified as female (n = 15; 75%), white non-Hispanic/Latino (n = 14; 70%), and were Doctors of Medicine or Osteopathic Medicine (n = 14; 70%).

In the first article, authors describe clinicians' concerns regarding the social-emotional screening of young children. In the second article, authors highlight the potential for a transdiagnostic screening tool for assessing toddler irritability that may support clinical decision making. In the third article, authors use information gathered from clinicians to generate a logic model that can guide the implementation of screening and referral for toddlers with elevated social-emotional risk. In the fourth article, authors explore caregivers' perceptions of other factors, such as effectiveness, demand, and cost, of the proposed intervention, that may impact their service engagement. Together, these articles outline a plan for facilitating early childhood mental health screening, identification, and referral that has the potential for reducing the prevalence of pediatric mental health diagnoses.
