This Special Issue aimed to advance our understanding of transdiagnostic mechanisms, dimensions, and practices in child and adolescent mental health, and includes original articles, reviews, commentaries, and an editorial perspective. Collectively, these articles illustrate three main 'transdiagnostic' conceptualisations; (i) mechanistic approaches identifying shared biological, cognitive, or affective processes across diagnostic boundaries; (ii) dimensional approaches mapping symptom covariance onto hierarchical structures such as the general '<i>p</i>' factor and internalising, externalising, and neurodevelopmental spectra; and (iii) developmental, clinical-staging approaches treating early, non-specific features as precursors to a broad range of later outcomes. Methodologically, the current Special Issue highlights both the opportunities and limitations of large existing datasets, multi-informant assessment, and neuroimaging and genomic approaches, while underscoring the persistent difficulty of modelling transdiagnostic dimensions developmentally. Importantly, while translation into routine clinical care remains limited, the field is now well positioned to test the clinical utility and effectiveness of transdiagnostic dimensional assessments and interventions in routine care.</p>","PeriodicalId":73542,"journal":{"name":"JCPP advances","volume":" ","pages":"e70162"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13534991/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148882624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
