Title: Thinking about the threat of nuclear war: relevance to mental health

Journal Article · · Am. J. Orthopsychiatr.; (United States)

Ontario students in grades 7-13 responded to open-ended and multiple-choice questions about future concerns, particularly unemployment, job/career plans, and the nuclear threat. Although worries about nuclear war were more frequent than those in other areas, their expression was associated with a sense of social efficacy rather than with feelings of helplessness.
