Background: Self-perception is an important internal resource, and violence exposure can negatively impact children's view of themselves.

The current study examined whether adults would also benefit from recalling generic…

Murphy, Barbara – BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, 2023
Emotional abuse can have an enormous impact on children. Its effects can be equivalent to, or exceed, those of other forms of abuse.

It is essential that those who work with child are aware of the signs and symptoms…

John, Neetu A.; Kapungu, Chisina; Sebany, Meroji; Tadesse, Seifu – Youth & Society, 2023
Limited emphasis is placed on understanding the gendered pathways that influence mental health, especially long-term cumulative impacts of gender-based inequalities. Exposure to early child marriage (marriage by age 15) may exaggerate exposure to gender-based mental health risk-factors, providing an opportunity to understand the multi-layered…

Lee, Jungeun Olivia; Yoon, Yoewon; Duan, Lei; Oxford, Monica L.; Cederbaum, Julie A. – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
Childhood adversities have been linked to externalizing problems in adolescence. However, studies focusing on early adolescence are rare. Even less empirical attention has been given to the unique and joint influences of children's and maternal childhood adversity on children's externalizing behavior, particularly with a keen focus on the nature…

Arnold, Noelle W.; Osanloo, Azadeh F.; Guillaume, René O.; Boske, Christa; Miller-Tomlinson, Wendi – Journal of School Leadership, 2018
There is fertile ground to expand the ideas of resilience and growth as two important skills in leadership (Bell, 2009). Little research has examined how trauma and violence are reappropriated in post-trauma contexts. In fact, resiliency and adaptive strategies often influence life and career choices (Wolin & Wolin, 1993). Although this…

Jones, Melissa S.; Pierce, Hayley; Chapple, Constance L. – Youth & Society, 2022
Though considerable research links both a lack of self-control and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) to a variety of negative health and behavioral outcomes, few studies to date have explored whether ACEs are associated with deficits in self-control. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCW; n = 3,444) and a life…
