“…[20,21] Symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder usually appear within a month after the traumatic event, but in some cases, these reactions may persist for months, may not be seen, or maybe seen with a trigger factor. [22] In our study, stress reactions in children and adolescents after various traumatic experiences were assessed with "Child Post Traumatic Stress Reaction Index-CPTS-RI". Findings of the scale regarding internal consistency, consistency between test-retest raters and construct validity show that it will be useful in monitoring post-traumatic symptoms in children.…”

L aying the foundations of a healthy society is possible when children complete their development in a healthy way. However, children have been abused and neglected since the past times. [1] While children are exposed to abuse in many societies, there has been a serious increase in sexual abuse cases in recent years. It is devastating impacts effect children in every country, harming families, communities, nations, and even generations. [2] According to the research Objectives: Child sexual abuse is an issue that has become evident throughout the world in recent years and requires attention in its treatment. For this purpose, we investigated the effects of aerobic exercises used in physiotherapy on some findings related to post-traumatic stress such as depression and anxiety and on aerobic endurance, flexibility, and muscular endurance associated with physical fitness in the treatment of children exposed to sexual abuse. Methods: The research was carried out at the Child Advocacy Center affiliated by the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Clinic within Istanbul Bakırköy Prof. Dr. Mazhar Osman Mental Health and Neurological Diseases Training and Research Hospital. The study was planned in three groups and 34 cases were included. Groups were stated as control, home exercise, and physiotherapistguided exercise for 12 weeks. Depression (Children Depression Inventory), anxiety (The Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders), post-traumatic stress responses (Child Post-traumatic Stress Reaction Index), cardiovascular capacity (6-min walk test-6 [MWT]), endurance (1-Minute Sit-up and Push-Up Tests), flexibility (Sit-and-Reach Test) and quality of life (Quality of Life Scale for Children-QoL-C) parameters were evaluated at before and after treatment. Results: As a result; significant improvements were observed in 6 MWT in all groups; for anxiety, sit and push-ups, and quality of life in the exercise group; for sit and lie in exercise and home exercise groups (p<0.05). In comparison between groups, the exercise group was found superior to the others in anxiety and quality of life and to the control group in 6 MWT and psychosocial health (p<0.05). Conclusion: Aerobic exercise can be used safely in the treatment of children victims of sexual abuse. Due to the superiority of the physiotherapist-guided group, it can be preferred first.

The aim of this article is to present a review of the research surrounding the short-term and long-term psychological and health consequences of child abuse and neglect. Research papers related to the consequences of child abuse and neglect and published in leading academic journals were identified and reviewed. We found that most of the available research suggests that there is a variety of negative outcomes among those exposed to physical, sexual and emotional abuse, neglect, witnessing domestic violence and multi-type childhood abuse. Specifically, there was evidence of significant short-term and long-term consequences encompassing physical and mental health difficulties, subsequent perpetrations, social and cognitive difficulties, and attachment. Conclusion -The results of this review confirm that there is a wide range of short-term and long-term difficulties that are associated with child abuse and neglect. This variety of difficulties should be taken into account in approaching complex and multidisciplinary assessment and treatment.

“…Perhaps abused children would be properly identified more frequently and earlier if screening for abuse was routine. Use of a brief instrument to screen for exposure and abuse-related symptoms potentially would result in the identification of children in need of treatment and, where indicated, those requiring more thorough assessments (Wherry, Corson, & Hunsaker, 2013).…”

Professors, listen up! Graduate students should be moved from taking 10-13 hours to complete a report for a grade of "A" to a more reasonable and real-world time frame (e.g., 1 hour). Inefficient patterns of behavior in graduate school are hard to unlearn in the workplace, so professors must shape efficient report-writing skills in trainees. not all abuse is traumaticAfter years of ignoring trauma, the term and its symptoms are in vogue. This development is good, though in some settings the proverbial "pendulum
