Declarations

:

: This study was conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Ethical approval was obtained from the Research Ethics Review Committee (BETCHIE) of the Faculty of Science at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Consent number 23–021. All research participants were underage minors (12 to 16 years of age). Written informed consent was therefore obtained from both teenagers and parents for the research use of the interviews and photos or videos created by the teenagers during sensitising assignments and interviews. Participants were informed about the purpose of the study, their right to withdraw at any time without consequence, and how their data would be used and protected. The consent form provided two options: permission for internal use only or for both internal and external use.

: Written informed consent for the publication of clinical details and/or clinical images was obtained from the parents or legal guardians of all participants. This consent included permission for the publication of materials such as interviews, photos, and videos created by the participants during the study.
