Download or read book Trauma Symptoms in Children Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence written by Kara A. Cochran and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive contextual framework (Grych & Fincham, 1990) and emotional security theory (Cummings & Davies, 1994) posit that children's appraisals about interparental conflict influence child adjustment outcomes. Though children exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV) involving their parents are at increased risk for developing trauma symptoms as well as dysregulated hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis functioning, the cognitive precursors to these outcomes have rarely been studied. The present study sought to investigate children's threat and self-blame appraisals about interparental conflict as potential mechanisms contributing to these adverse outcomes. The influence of child and family level contextual factors (gender; parent-child relationships) were also examined. The sample consisted of 119 10-year-olds and their mothers who were recruited from the community as a part of a larger longitudinal study of IPV. Though children's reports of IPV exposure in the past year were not associated with symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), greater exposure to parental IPV was associated with attenuated cortisol output during the Trier Social Stress Test for children. Greater IPV exposure was also associated with increased threat appraisals, as well as worse parent-child relationship quality. Indirect effects of IPV on PTSD symptoms and HPA axis responsivity through children's appraisals were not significant. These results suggest that witnessing parental IPV is threatening for children and can have negative consequences for parent-child relationships. In addition, this study highlights the complexity of factors that influence the development of trauma symptoms following exposure to parental IPV.

Book excerpt: Often excused by parents as `kids will be kids' behaviour, sibling abuse remains largely unrecognized. Symptoms of such abuse and its devastating effects on victims go undetected, victims do not receive appropriate therapeutic intervention, and transgressors do not come to the attention of the courts. The author of this book brings this neglected area `out of the shadows' with personal accounts of adult survivors, insights into why sibling abuse occurs, suggestions for prevention and implications for treatment.
Book Synopsis Stress Physiology and Post-traumatic Stress Symptoms in Children Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence by : Tami Rigterink
Download or read book Stress Physiology and Post-traumatic Stress Symptoms in Children Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence written by Tami Rigterink and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a prevalent problem in families with many children exposed to the violence each year. IPV has been associated with negative outcomes in children including trauma symptoms. A potential avenue to explore to determine which IPV-exposed children are at greatest risk for trauma symptom development is physiological functioning both at baseline and in response to stress. Previous research has demonstrated that trauma exposed children may display atypical physiological functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Additionally, atypical physiological functioning has also been associated with maladjustment in children. However, much of this work has focused on the independent effects of the HPA axis and SNS and results have been inconsistent with some finding increased activation, decreased activation or normative functioning associated with poor child outcomes. Bauer and colleagues (2002) argued that these physiological systems need to be examined concurrently to understand which children are at highest risk for maladjustment. Additionally, they put forth two competing models, the interactive (asymmetrical activation is associated with increased risk) and additive (symmetrical functioning is associated with increased risk) models, to describe how the HPA axis and SNS may interact. The present study examined whether the inclusion of both systems best predicts trauma symptoms in IPV-exposed children over the individual effects of each system. Furthermore, it investigates which model, the additive or interactive, best describe the interaction of the two physiological systems. Thirty-five mother-child dyads (children aged 6-12 years) with a history of IPV exposure were included in the study. Children completed a parent-child interaction and mental arithmetic task with saliva samples collected five times over the course of the session. Hierarchical linear regression analyses were conducted to assess whether the interaction between both baseline levels and reactivity levels of cortisol and alpha amylase best predicted child trauma symptoms. Significant interactions were plotted per Aiken and West (1991). Findings supported Bauer et al.'s (2002) suggestion of using a multi-system approach and there was support for both the additive and interactive models. Future directions for research are also discussed.

Book Synopsis Contexts for Young Child Flourishing by : Darcia Narvaez
Download or read book Contexts for Young Child Flourishing written by Darcia Narvaez and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human beings have the most immature newborn and longest maturational schedule of any animal. Only 25% of the adult brain size is developed at full-term birth, and most of the brain's size and volume is co-constructed by caregivers in the first years of life. As a result, early life experience has long-term effects on physiological and psychological wellbeing. Contexts for Young Child Flourishing uses an evolutionary systems framing to address the conditions and contexts for child development and thriving. Contributors focus on flourishing-optimizing individual (physiological, psychological, emotional) and communal (social, community) functioning. Converging events make this a key time to reconsider the needs of children and their optimal development in light of increasing understanding of human evolution, the early dynamism of development, and how these influence developmental trajectories. There is a great deal of misunderstanding both among researchers and the general public about what human beings need for optimal development. As a result, human nature unnecessarily can be misshaped by policies, practices, and beliefs that don't take into account evolved needs. Empirical studies today are better able to document and map the long-term effects of early deficits or early assets, mostly in animal models but also through longitudinal studies. An interdisciplinary set of scholars considers child flourishing in regards to issues of development, childhood experience, and wellbeing. Scholars from neuroscience, anthropology, and clinical and developmental studies examine the buffering effects of optimal caregiving practices and shed light on the need for new databases, new policies, and altered childcare practices.
Book Synopsis Self-Esteem Issues and Answers by : Michael H. Kernis
Download or read book Self-Esteem Issues and Answers written by Michael H. Kernis and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research and theory on self-esteem have flourished in recent years. This resurgence has produced multiple perpectives on fundamental issues surrounding the nature of self-esteem and its role in psychological functioning and interpersonal processes. Self-Esteem Issues and Answers brings together these various perspectives in a unique format. The book is divided into five sections. Section I focuses on core issues pertaining to the conceptualization and assesment of self-esteem, and when self-esteem is optimal. Section II concentrates on the determinants, development, and modifiability of self-esteem. Section III examines the evolutionary significance of self-esteem and its role in psychological processes and therapeutic settings. Section IV explores the social, relational, and cultural significance of self-esteem. Finally, Section V considers future directions for self-esteem researchers, practitioners, parents and teachers. This volume offers a wealth of perspectives from prominent researchers from different areas of psychology. Each expert contributor was asked to focus his or her chapter on a central self-esteem issue. Three or four experts addressed each question. The result is that Self-Esteem Issues and Answers provides a comprehensive sourcebook of current perspectives on a wide range of central self-esteem issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the unique issues involved in assessing, diagnosing, intervening, and treating intimate partner violence (IPV) in the LGBTQ+ population.

The authors draw upon clinical examples and research from the IPV programs in their own organization as well as external research to provide a comprehensive overview. Chapters span topics that include definitions of IPV, its history, relevant issues within the LGBTQ+ community, the unique facets of LGBTQ+ IPV and its assessment and diagnosis. Case examples indicate how an assessment should be carried out and how to develop appropriate and effective interventions and treatment plans. This book will empower clinicians to assess for and treat LGBTQ+ IPV whenever and wherever they encounter it.
Book Synopsis Working with Survivors of Sibling Sexual Abuse by : Christiane Sanderson
Download or read book Working with Survivors of Sibling Sexual Abuse written by Christiane Sanderson and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-02-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sibling sexual abuse is considered to be one of the most common forms of child sexual abuse within the family setting, yet it is often ignored, downplayed or denied in spite the impact on survivors. Shining a spotlight on the hidden phenomenon, Christiane Sanderson provides a rigorous account of the nature and dynamics of sibling sexual abuse. She provides a clear explanation of the difference between developmentally appropriate, consensual sexual exploration and developmentally inappropriate, non-consensual sexual behaviour.
