AITANA Group
The research group AITANA arose in 2010 on the initiative of a group of professors from the University Miguel Hernández with a common interest: the study of psychological problems of children and adolescents and the improvement of their physical and emotional well-being. AITANA promotes the dissemination of the latest advances in the field of childhood and adolescence through the International Congress of Clinical Psychology and Health with Childhood and Adolescence, which since 2011 annually brings together specialists from around the world. Since 2014 the group publishes the Journal of Clinical Psychology with Children and Adolescents which disseminates scientific studies in this area.
