Following publication of the original article [1], the authors found three errors with the authorship, Table 1 and related content in the Results section. Details are as follows:

• The given and family names of each author were published in reverse. The authorship panel therefore read: Duveau Camille, Smith Pierre, and Lorant Vincent.

• Table 1 needs to be updated, it can be found below.

• The sentences that describe Table 1 in the Results section need to be updated. The changes have been highlighted in bold typeface.

  “In 1997, 82.0% of the sample was Belgian, while in 2018, this percentage decreased to 74.9%, which is consistent with the change in population composition [25]. Descriptive statistics showed that the proportion of respondents with a Moroccan background increased from 1.9% in 2001 to 3.2% in 2018, and that of those with a Turkish background increased from 0.9 to 1.1%. The table also examined the parents’ country of birth of respondents, and the results indicated that the proportion of individuals with one or two parents born abroad increased between 2013 and 2018. For example, the percentage of respondents with a mother born outside the European Union was 11.1% in 2013 but rose to 15.3% in 2018.

  It is noticeable that the proportion of MI (GHQ score of 4 or higher) has changed over time, increasing from 13.8% in 2001 to 19.8% in 2018.”

The original article [1] has been corrected.
