This study leverages the availability of a validated series of instruments to measure the
effect of highly visible, chronic skin disorders, including atopic dermatitis (AD), on
patients 8 years of age and above in causing stigma and psychiatric issues, particularly
anxiety and depression.

This is a multi center study with Northwestern University/Lurie Children's Hospital serving
as the Data Coordinating Center. Site selection has been completed through members of PeDRA.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subjects must be aged 8-17 years of age

- Subject must be diagnosed with a chronic skin disease deemed to be severe enough
and/or in a visible location that could be stigmatizing as determined by the study
doctor

- Subject and parent must both be English speaking with at least one parent/guardian who
will complete the questionnaires

- Subject and Parent/Guardian must be able to complete the relevant questionnaires

Exclusion Criteria:

- Children under 8 years of age

participation in form completion

- Children with a non-cutaneous disorder that is considered by the Study doctor to be
stigmatizing
