Abstract
This review provides the mechanism of transgenerational transmission of mental disorder (TTMD), the factors involved in them, and the psychosocial interventions in the Children of Parents with a Mental Illness (COPMI). The TTMD is a combination of biological risk factors and various psychological risk factors including parent-related factors, family condition, child-related factors and social-environmental factors. Interventions in the COPMI consist of peer support programs, parent education, family intervention, professional education, and community networking. Evidence on the effectiveness of intervention programs is accumulating. Policies and researches are needed to strengthen medical and social support in Korea to reduce social losses from TTMD.
