Background

Children with disabilities (CWD) face a heightened risk of experiencing sexual abuse. Despite the severity and persistence of these cases, they often receive inadequate responses from child protection systems compared to incidents involving non-disabled children. Moreover, recent technological advancements have extended the risk of sexual abuse beyond physical spaces to online environments. This creates an escalated risk and challenges for the protection of CWD.

Objective

This study aims to conduct a qualitative-critical analysis of case reports detailing incidents of online child sexual abuse (OCSA) involving CWD to explore how these cases are documented and addressed.

Participants and setting

The data comprised 25 reports from a hotline in Israel receiving reports of online child sexual abuse of CWD aged 11–17 across Israel.

Methods

Influenced by a critical paradigm, the study utilizes a qualitative methodology to undertake a reflexive thematic analysis of the reports.

Results

The analysis revealed a significant underrepresentation of CWD's voices in the reports, which predominantly reflected parental perspectives. Moreover, the disability aspect was often overlooked, with limited acknowledgment or reference to the child's disability.

Conclusion

The findings underscored the marginalization of CWD in child protection processes. They highlighted the urgent need to integrate disability-specific considerations into post-abuse treatment and intervention, advocating for the inclusion of children's perspectives in reporting and response efforts. Recommendations include enhancing professional training, refining reporting protocols to address disability explicitly, and implementing policy reforms to ensure inclusive support systems. Future research should explore comparative analysis and gather qualitative insights from CWD to enhance intervention strategies effectively.
残疾儿童(CWD)面临着遭受性虐待的高风险。尽管这些案件严重且持续存在,但与涉及非残疾儿童的事件相比,儿童保护系统对这些案件的反应往往不足。此外,最近的技术进步已经将性虐待的风险从物理空间扩展到网络环境。这给CWD的保护带来了更大的风险和挑战。本研究旨在对涉及CWD的在线儿童性虐待(OCSA)事件的案例报告进行定性分析,以探讨如何记录和处理这些案件。参与者和数据包括来自以色列热线的25份报告,该热线接收以色列11-17岁的CWD在线儿童性虐待报告。方法受批判性范式的影响,本研究采用定性方法对报告进行反思性专题分析。结果分析显示,报告中CWD的声音明显不足,这些声音主要反映了父母的观点。此外,残疾方面往往被忽视,对儿童残疾的承认或提及有限。结论CWD在儿童保护过程中处于边缘化地位。他们强调迫切需要在虐待后的治疗和干预中纳入针对残疾的考虑,并倡导在报告和应对工作中纳入儿童的观点。建议包括加强专业培训,完善报告协议以明确解决残疾问题,实施政策改革以确保包容性支持系统。未来的研究应探索对比分析,从CWD中收集定性的见解,以有效地加强干预策略。

Background

Living with intimate partner violence (IPV) puts children at risk of negative short- and long-term outcomes. Studies on this topic are mainly quantitative and often focused on psychological and behavioral outcomes.

Objective

This qualitative study examines, more broadly and from their own perspective, impacts on the health and well-being of children.

Participants and setting

In 2022, we interviewed 20 adolescents and young adults who had experienced parental IPV when they were minors and whose parent attended a Swiss clinical forensic consultation for IPV between 2011 and 2018.

Methods

Semi-structured individual interviews were carried out, covering the main areas of the participants’ life since birth. A thematic analysis was conducted on the interview transcripts.

Findings

Short- and long-term impacts were reported. Impacts on mental health included fear, worry, and anxiety; trauma; feelings of sadness and abandonment; negative self-image and anger. Impacts on behaviors were sleep problems; social isolation and difficulties; fleeing from home; self-harm; and aggression and violence. Injuries and other physical impacts were mentioned, such as pain, fatigue, and weight problems. Financial and social impacts, impacts on school, and damage to relationships, especially with the victimized parent, were also reported. Interactions between impacts and cascading effects were often noted.

Conclusions

Impacts occur at different levels of the social ecology and stem not only from the experience of acute IPV events, but more broadly from the daily experience of IPV, where coercive control and other victimizations are often the norm. Recommendations for practice are provided.
生活在亲密伴侣暴力环境中会使儿童面临短期和长期负面后果的风险。关于这一主题的研究主要是定量的,往往集中在心理和行为结果上。目的本定性研究更广泛地从他们自己的角度考察对儿童健康和福祉的影响。在2022年,我们采访了20名青少年和年轻人,他们在未成年时经历过父母IPV,他们的父母在2011年至2018年期间参加了IPV的瑞士临床法医咨询。方法采用半结构化的个人访谈法,涵盖了调查对象自出生以来的主要生活领域。对访谈笔录进行专题分析。研究结果报告了短期和长期影响。对心理健康的影响包括恐惧、担心和焦虑;创伤;悲伤和被遗弃的感觉;消极的自我形象和愤怒。对行为的影响是睡眠问题;社会孤立和困难;逃离家园的;自残;还有侵略和暴力。受伤和其他身体影响也被提及,比如疼痛、疲劳和体重问题。还报告了经济和社会影响、对学校的影响以及对关系的损害,特别是与受害家长的关系。经常注意到撞击和级联效应之间的相互作用。结论影响发生在社会生态的不同层面,不仅源于急性IPV事件的经历,而且更广泛地源于IPV的日常经历,其中强制控制和其他受害往往是常态。为实践提供了建议。

Background

Violence against children, including violent discipline, is widespread globally, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like Tanzania. However, evidence supporting the cycle of violence hypothesis in nations with a high prevalence of violent discipline is still scarce, especially concerning female caregivers.

Objective

This study examined the association of female caregivers’ experiences of violent discipline in their childhood, as well as their approval of violent discipline, with their use of violent discipline against their children. Participants and setting: A total of 851 female caregivers (Mean (M) Age = 40.00 years, Standard Deviation (SD) Age = 11.392, Range: 17–91 years) of children (MAge = 12.58 years, SDAge = 1.43, Range: 8–18 years) participated in a cluster-randomised controlled trial aimed at preventing violent discipline by teachers in 12 schools across six regions of Tanzania.

Methods

Binary logistic regression analyses were used to examine the association of female caregivers with and without experience of violent discipline in their childhood and those approving and not approving violent discipline with their use of physical and emotional violent discipline against their children.

Results

More than 90 % of female caregivers reported having experienced violent discipline during their childhood. Also, about 95 % of female caregivers reported favourable attitudes towards violent discipline, 72.2 % had used one or more forms of physical violent discipline, and 84.8 % had used one or more forms of emotional violent discipline against their children in the past month. Female caregivers with a childhood experience of violent discipline and those with favourable attitudes towards violent discipline were significantly more likely to use both physical and emotional violent discipline (p < .05) against their child(ren).

Conclusion

The findings highlight the need for designing and implementing effective interventions that challenge societal norms and practices endorsing violent discipline while promoting the education of female caregivers. This approach could decrease instances of violent discipline within families and help break the cycle of violence.
针对儿童的暴力行为,包括暴力惩戒,在全球普遍存在,特别是在坦桑尼亚等低收入和中等收入国家。然而,在暴力惩戒盛行的国家,支持暴力循环假说的证据仍然很少,尤其是在女性照顾者方面。目的本研究探讨了女性照顾者在童年时期遭受暴力管教的经历,以及她们对暴力管教的认同,与她们对子女使用暴力管教的关系。参与者和环境:共有851名女性照顾者(平均(M)年龄= 40.00岁,标准差(SD)年龄= 11.392岁,范围:17-91岁)的儿童(年龄= 12.58岁,年龄= 1.43岁,范围:8-18岁)参加了一项旨在预防坦桑尼亚6个地区12所学校教师暴力纪律的聚类随机对照试验。方法采用二元logistic回归分析,分析童年有和没有暴力惩戒经历的女性照料者、赞成和不赞成暴力惩戒的女性照料者对子女使用身体和情感暴力惩戒的相关性。结果90%以上的女性看护人报告在童年时期经历过暴力管教。此外,约95%的女性看护人报告对暴力管教持赞成态度,72.2%的人在过去一个月里对孩子使用过一种或多种形式的身体暴力管教,84.8%的人对孩子使用过一种或多种形式的情感暴力管教。童年经历过暴力管教的女性看护者和对暴力管教持积极态度的女性看护者更有可能使用身体和情感上的暴力管教(p <;(5)反对他们的孩子。结论研究结果强调,需要设计和实施有效的干预措施,挑战支持暴力管教的社会规范和做法,同时促进对女性照顾者的教育。这种方法可以减少家庭内部的暴力惩戒,并有助于打破暴力循环。

Background

Child medical neglect is defined as the failure to provide timely healthcare to the child, placing them at risk of harm. Despite Israel's universal health coverage, East Jerusalem (EJ) Palestinian youth and their families face unique socioeconomic realities and inequitable healthcare access that are shaped by the broader socio-political climate and policies that further challenge healthcare provision. Engaging EJ youth in research, as potentially vulnerable to medical neglect and as experts in their lives, fills a current gap in understanding their specific experiences and healthcare needs.

Objective

This qualitative inquiry explored EJ Palestinian youths' perceptions of medical neglect via review and discussion of medical neglect case vignettes.

Participants and setting

Arab-speaking Palestinian youth aged 12 to 14 were recruited from two EJ schools to participate in data collection activities. Data collection was facilitated by the research team in a confidential space within local EJ school libraries.

Methods

We addressed our qualitative research aims via semi-structured focus groups, one each for boys and girls who participated in the study. Both parental consent and youth assent were obtained before youth participation. Open-ended questions for each focus group featured questions about healthcare and medical neglect, youth reflections on three medical neglect vignettes, and healthcare advocacy questions. Discussions were transcribed, translated into English, and subjected to inductive thematic analysis.

Results

A total of 14 youth participated in the study's focus groups, one each for boys and girls (57 %). The youth demonstrated an awareness of their lived environments, socio-political contexts, cultural influences, and rights-based expectations regarding caregiving. The five main themes included perceived severity and chronicity of medical neglect, emotional impact, systemic factors, shared responsibility, and valuing the child's perspective.

Conclusion

EJ youth understand the complex challenges and competing needs within their community. Findings point to the potential role of youth engagement in research related to healthcare systems, particularly in violence-risk living environments. This study encourages further research to amplify youth voices within complex sociopolitical contexts.
儿童医疗疏忽被定义为未能及时向儿童提供医疗保健,使他们面临伤害的风险。尽管以色列实现了全民健康覆盖,但东耶路撒冷的巴勒斯坦青年及其家庭面临着独特的社会经济现实和不公平的医疗保健机会,这是由更广泛的社会政治气候和政策造成的,这些气候和政策进一步挑战了医疗保健的提供。让EJ青年参与研究,因为他们可能容易受到医疗忽视,并作为他们生活中的专家,填补了目前在了解他们的具体经历和医疗保健需求方面的空白。目的:通过对医疗忽视案例的回顾和讨论,探讨巴勒斯坦青年对医疗忽视的看法。从两所EJ学校招募了12至14岁的参与者和说阿拉伯语的巴勒斯坦青年参加数据收集活动。研究小组在当地EJ学校图书馆的一个保密空间内方便了数据收集。方法我们通过半结构化的焦点小组来实现我们的定性研究目标,参与研究的男孩和女孩各一个。在青少年参与前,必须取得家长同意及青少年同意。每个焦点小组的开放式问题都有关于医疗保健和医疗忽视的问题,青少年对三个医疗忽视小插曲的反思,以及医疗保健宣传问题。讨论被记录下来,翻译成英语,并进行归纳性的主题分析。结果共有14名青少年参加了该研究的焦点小组,男孩和女孩各一个(57%)。青年表现出对他们的生活环境、社会政治背景、文化影响和基于权利的照顾期望的意识。五个主要主题包括感知的严重程度和慢性医疗忽视,情感影响,系统因素,共同责任和重视儿童的观点。结论ej青年了解社区内复杂的挑战和相互竞争的需求。研究结果指出,青年参与与卫生保健系统有关的研究,特别是在有暴力风险的生活环境中,可能发挥的作用。这项研究鼓励进一步的研究,以扩大青年的声音在复杂的社会政治背景。

Ideological indoctrination of children during Crises: Non-Religious extremism in authoritarian regimes 危机时期儿童的意识形态灌输:专制政权中的非宗教极端主义
Pub Date : 2025-07-02 DOI: 10.1016/j.chipro.2025.100205
Dr Karima Almazroui
This article investigates the secular ideological indoctrination of children under authoritarian regimes during political and humanitarian crises, focusing on the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, North Korea, and Maoist China. While much attention has been given to religious radicalization, this study highlights how non-religious regimes exploit education and child socialization to consolidate power. Using a comparative, interdisciplinary framework grounded in critical theory, developmental psychology, and human rights law, it explores how states manipulate curricula, emotional bonds, and youth institutions to reengineer identity, suppress dissent, and instill loyalty.
Crises enable regimes to occupy moral and epistemic space left by collapsing institutions, reframing education as a tool of ideological purification. The study introduces the concept of affective captivity to capture the emotional restructuring of children's moral frameworks and links these practices to violations of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. It reframes indoctrination as a form of epistemic and structural violence with enduring psychological and civic consequences.
By naming secular indoctrination as a form of non-religious extremism, the article contributes to authoritarian studies, child rights, and comparative education. It calls for enhanced legal recognition, critical curriculum safeguards, and post-crisis strategies to protect children's autonomy and psychosocial development.
​虽然人们对宗教激进化给予了很多关注,但这项研究强调了非宗教政权如何利用教育和儿童社会化来巩固权力。运用以批判理论、发展心理学和人权法为基础的比较、跨学科框架,它探讨了国家如何操纵课程、情感纽带和青年机构来重新设计身份、压制异议和灌输忠诚。危机使政权能够占据制度崩溃留下的道德和认知空间,将教育重新塑造为意识形态净化的工具。该研究引入了情感囚禁的概念,以捕捉儿童道德框架的情感重构,并将这些做法与违反《联合国儿童权利公约》联系起来。它将灌输重新定义为一种具有持久心理和公民后果的认知和结构性暴力形式。通过将世俗的灌输称为非宗教极端主义的一种形式,这篇文章有助于威权主义研究、儿童权利和比较教育。它呼吁加强法律承认、关键课程保障和危机后战略,以保护儿童的自主权和心理社会发展。

Background

Signs of Safety (SofS) is a strength-based approach for family intervention. The SofS model has been adopted in many jurisdictions internationally, including Ireland. It is used by social workers to engage with families referred for services due to concerns about child welfare or abuse.

Objective

To examine the implementation and use of SofS in the context of the Irish child protection and welfare services.

Participants and setting

Review of reports involving three groups of stakeholders (social workers, parents, and children).

Methods

A documentary analysis of early research on SofS within the Irish child protection and welfare services. We conducted a comprehensive analysis and interpretation of the reports from three studies commissioned by Tusla, the Child and Family Agency (Tusla) following the implementation of SofS.

Results

SofS empowers social workers and improves relationships lbetween social workers and families. However, SofS also takes more time and energy to use and poses a barrier to good practice in some situations. The complexities of the SofS model combined with heavy workloads, mean there is not always time for social workers to engage with SofS fully. Social workers and clients reported that this negatively impacted their experience.

Conclusion

The findings indicate two contrasting characteristics of the SofS model. It also identifies and analyzes the current Irish evidence base.
安全标志(SofS)是一种基于力量的家庭干预方法。SofS模式已被包括爱尔兰在内的许多国际司法管辖区采用。它被社会工作者用来与由于担心儿童福利或虐待而转介服务的家庭接触。目的探讨在爱尔兰儿童保护和福利服务中SofS的实施和使用情况。参与者和背景对涉及三组利益相关者(社会工作者、家长和儿童)的报告进行审查。方法对爱尔兰儿童保护和福利服务中SofS的早期研究进行文献分析。我们对儿童及家庭署(Tusla)在推行家庭福利制度后委托进行的三项研究报告进行了全面的分析和解读。结果sofs增强了社会工作者的能力,改善了社会工作者与家庭之间的关系。然而,使用SofS也需要花费更多的时间和精力,并且在某些情况下阻碍了良好的实践。SofS模式的复杂性与繁重的工作量相结合,意味着社会工作者并不总是有时间充分参与SofS。社会工作者和客户报告说,这对他们的体验产生了负面影响。结论SofS模型具有两个截然不同的特征。它还确定并分析了当前爱尔兰的证据基础。

Background

A third place is a location other than home or school/work. Most studies investigating third places have focused on adults of various ages, leaving a gap in the understanding of how third places affect adolescents’ mental health.

Objective

This study investigated the relationship between the availability of a third place and behavioral problems in adolescents.

Participants

and Setting: Participants comprised parents of Japanese eighth graders aged 13–14 years (n = 540).

Methods

The presence of a third place and behavioral issues were assessed using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, which measures emotional symptoms, peer relationship problems, conduct problems, and hyperactivity. Of the 540 reports, 369 (68.3 %) indicated that children had a third place. T-tests comparing mean scores showed that the group without a third place scored significantly higher on emotional symptoms and peer relationship problems than the group with a third place. A logistic regression analysis was conducted using the inverse weight method with propensity scores. The explanatory variable was the presence of a third place, and the objective variable was the occurrence of behavioral problems. Propensity scores were calculated based on gender, family structure, household income, and parental education.

Findings

The group with a third place scored significantly higher on behavioral problems and had a significantly lower risk of internalizing emotional symptoms and peer relationship problems than the group without such a place.

Conclusion

Having access to a third place can significantly reduce the risk of problematic behaviors in adolescents.
第三个地点是除了家或学校/工作以外的地方。大多数调查第三地点的研究都集中在不同年龄的成年人身上,这使得人们对第三地点如何影响青少年心理健康的理解存在空白。目的探讨青少年第三场所可得性与行为问题的关系。参与者和环境:参与者包括13-14岁日本八年级学生的父母(n = 540)。方法采用《优势与困难问卷》(Strengths and difficulty Questionnaire)对第三场所的存在和行为问题进行评估,该问卷测量情绪症状、同伴关系问题、行为问题和多动症。在540份报告中,369份(68.3%)表明儿童排在第三位。比较平均得分的t检验显示,没有第三名的那一组在情绪症状和同伴关系问题上的得分明显高于有第三名的那一组。logistic回归分析采用反权重法与倾向得分。解释变量是第三个地方的存在,客观变量是行为问题的发生。倾向得分是根据性别、家庭结构、家庭收入和父母教育程度计算的。研究结果:与没有第三名的那一组相比,获得第三名的那一组在行为问题上的得分要高得多,出现内在情绪症状和同伴关系问题的风险也要低得多。结论拥有第三场所可以显著降低青少年出现问题行为的风险。

Background

Adolescents' refusal to answer questions about sexual abuse in surveys may indicate challenges in disclosure.

Objective

To assess the use of missing and refusal options in a sexual abuse survey among adolescents and examine reasons for refusal.

Participants

and Setting: A convenience sample of 7329 Mexican adolescents (aged 15–18 years) participated in an online survey between April and July 2021.

Methods

Sexual abuse was measured using the ISPCAN Child Abuse Screening Tool adapted for Mexican Spanish. Participants were given the option of refusing to answer questions related to sexual abuse and were also given the opportunity to indicate their reasons for doing so. Refusal percentages were calculated, and motives were analyzed through semantic content analysis.

Results

The analysis revealed that 4.34 % of the adolescents left questions blank, and 4.31 % selected the refusal option. Significant differences by sexual orientation were found for both response types, with higher rates of refusals among homosexual and bisexual participants. Four categories emerged from the analysis of refusal motives: direct disclosure, indirect disclosure, discomfort when thinking about the event, and difficulties with recall.

Conclusions

Survey responses about sexual violence differ by sexual orientation. This study underscores the importance of adaptive survey methodologies to enhance data reliability in surveys on violence, protect participants' well-being and respect their need for control of over their responses.
青少年在调查中拒绝回答有关性虐待的问题可能表明在披露方面存在挑战。目的评价青少年性虐待调查中缺失选项和拒绝选项的使用情况,探讨拒绝选项的原因。参与者和环境:7329名墨西哥青少年(15-18岁)在2021年4月至7月期间参加了一项在线调查。方法使用适用于墨西哥西班牙语的ISPCAN儿童虐待筛查工具对性侵犯进行测量。参与者可以选择拒绝回答与性虐待有关的问题,并有机会说明他们这样做的原因。计算拒绝百分比,并通过语义内容分析分析拒绝动机。结果4.34%的青少年选择空白,4.31%的青少年选择拒绝。两种反应类型在性取向上存在显著差异,同性恋和双性恋参与者的拒绝率更高。从拒绝动机的分析中可以得出四种类型:直接披露、间接披露、思考事件时的不适以及回忆的困难。结论性取向对性暴力的调查结果存在差异。这项研究强调了适应性调查方法的重要性,以提高暴力调查数据的可靠性,保护参与者的福祉,并尊重他们对自己的反应进行控制的需要。

Background

Globally, an estimated one billion children experience violence every year. The prevalence of violence is anticipated to be higher in low-and middle-income countries and particularly in humanitarian contexts. Colombia faces a protracted humanitarian crisis. It is affected by long-lasting internal conflict, high levels of community violence, the climate crisis, and migration due to the political crisis in Venezuela.

Objective

The aim of this mixed-methods study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-led child protection approach (Seeds) in La Guajira, Colombia.

Participants and setting

The study will be conducted in eight communities, randomly allocated to the intervention and control arms. Data will be collected from children and adults involved in Seeds activities, children targeted by community action, and natural helpers. The study will be conducted in La Guajira, a department in northern Colombia, with close proximity to the Venezuelan border and a history of armed conflict.

Methods

The study will follow a convergent parallel mixed-methods design in which quantitative and qualitative data are collected in parallel, analyzed separately, and then merged for interpretation. The quantitative arm of the study will follow a matched-control quasi-experimental design using a waitlist control. Qualitative data will be collected using semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and participant observation.

Conclusion

The results of the study will help address the lack of rigorous evidence on approaches to prevent violence against children, broaden understanding of changes driven by community-led child protection approaches, and offer an example of how to overcome challenges in evaluating community-led and prevention approaches.
在全球范围内,估计每年有10亿儿童遭受暴力。预计在低收入和中等收入国家,特别是在人道主义情况下,暴力的发生率会更高。哥伦比亚面临着旷日持久的人道主义危机。它受到长期内部冲突、高水平社区暴力、气候危机以及委内瑞拉政治危机导致的移民的影响。目的:本混合方法研究的目的是评估哥伦比亚La Guajira社区主导的儿童保护方法(Seeds)的有效性。该研究将在8个社区进行,随机分配到干预组和对照组。数据将从参与Seeds活动的儿童和成人、社区行动的目标儿童和自然帮助者中收集。这项研究将在哥伦比亚北部的瓜希拉省进行,该省靠近委内瑞拉边境,有武装冲突的历史。方法采用融合并行混合方法设计,将定量和定性数据并行收集,分别分析,然后合并解释。该研究的定量部分将采用匹配控制准实验设计,使用候补名单控制。定性数据将通过半结构化访谈、焦点小组讨论和参与者观察收集。研究结果将有助于解决预防暴力侵害儿童的方法缺乏严格证据的问题,扩大对社区主导的儿童保护方法所推动的变化的理解,并为如何克服评估社区主导和预防方法方面的挑战提供一个范例。
