abstract = {Background: The number of reported maternal mental health (MH) difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic was higher compared with the pre-pandemic period. Findings on the link between the COVID-19 pandemic and children’s developmental outcomes suggest significantly lower scores in the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3). The present study explored the interaction effects of maternal MH and being born during COVID-19 on children’s developmental outcomes.},
