Psychological distress and risky behaviors. An interview with Serge Paugam [Interview].

The study reports psychological distress among nearly 36% of young people. Young people experiencing material deprivation appear to be the most vulnerable. Bullying, particularly on social media, is a cause for concern. Serge Paugam recommends, in particular, increasing the number of places where young people can talk to caring adults and expanding social support services. When it comes to prevention, we must take comprehensive action across the family, school, and neighborhood spheres; therefore, family, school, and city policies must be adapted.
