“…There is also some support for the hypothesis that children from violent families of origin carry violent and violence-tolerant roles to their adult intimate relationships (Cappell & Heiner, 1990;Rosenbaum & O'Leary, 1981;Widom, 1989). For example, Rosenbaum and O'Leary (1981) reported that the male batterers in their study were much more likely than others to have grown up in homes where adult domestic violence was occurring.…”

“…These children have been called the "silent," "forgotten," and "unintended" victims of adult-to-adult domestic violence (Elbow, 1982;Groves et al, 1993;Rosenbaum & O'Leary, 1981). Studies of archived case records from social service and governmental agencies provide ample evidence that violence has long occurred at levels similar to those measured today and that children are frequently present during violence incidents (Edleson, 1991;Gordon, 1988;Peterson, 1991;Pleck, 1987).…”

Social service professionals are more frequently identifying children who witness adult domestic violence as victims of that abuse. This article expands common definitions of how children witness violence, and adult domestic violence in particular. Over 80 research papers were reviewed and a variety of behavioral, emotional, cognitive and physical functioning problems among children were found to be associated with exposure to domestic violence. Factors that appear to mediate the impact of witnessing violence, such as child gender, age, and time since last exposure to violence are identified. Concerns about research methodology are also raised.

“…The DAS is a widely used, 32-item measure of marital satisfaction. It has demonstrated high internal consistency and has been shown to distinguish between distressed and nondistressed couples and between abusive and discordant, nonabusive couples (Rosenbaum & O'Leary, 1981). DAS scores range from 0 to 151, with scores below 100 typically used to identify marital distress.…”

This study examined links between emotion expression in couple interactions and marital quality and stability. Core aspects of emotion expression in marital interactions were identified with the use of naïve observational coding by multiple raters. Judges rated 47 marital discussions with 15 emotion descriptors. Coders' pooled ratings yielded good reliability on 4 types of emotion expression: hostility, distress, empathy, and affection. These 4 types were linked with concurrent marital satisfaction and interviewer ratings of marital adjustment as well as with marital stability at a 5-year follow-up. The study also examined the extent to which naïve judges' ratings of emotion expression correspond to "expert" ratings using the Specific Affect Coding System (SPAFF). The unique advantages of naïve coding of emotion expression in marital interaction are discussed.

“…L'étude de Hennings, Leintenberg, Coffey, Turner et Bennett (1996) indique que les femmes qui ont été exposées à la violence conjugale durant leur enfance démontrent un niveau plus élevé de détresse psychologique et un niveau moins élevé d'ajustement social. Pour leur part, les conjoints violents sont plus susceptibles d'avoir été témoins ou victimes de violence dans leur famille d'origine (Straus, Gelles et Steinmetz, 1980;Rosenbaum et O'Leary, 1981). L'estimation de la proportion d'hommes abuseurs qui proviennent de familles possédant une histoire de violence oscille entre 50 % (Sonkin, Martin et Walker, 1985) et 80 % (Roy, 1982) selon les études.…”

Cet article présente les résultats d’une recherche sur les pratiques d’intervention auprès des enfants exposés à la violence conjugale. Les données ont été recueillies dans 146 établissements et organismes (CLSC, centres jeunesse, maisons d’hébergement) oeuvrant dans le domaine de la violence. La plupart des interventions sont basées sur l’aide individuelle; elles se distinguent selon trois types : les pratiques féministes formelles, les pratiques féministes ponctuelles et les pratiques éclectiques/systémiques. Des interventions spontanées ont également été relevées dans desmaisons d’hébergement. Le portrait des pratiques d’intervention tracé soulève des questions sur la difficulté pour les intervenants d’évaluer les résultats de leur action, sur le peu de rayonnement des interventions auprès des adolescents et sur la place faite aux parents.Research suggested that exposure to woman battering negatively affects the behaviour and emotional well-being of children. The growing awareness of these effects have led to a variety of services for children. But the nature of these services is not well known. This article reports the results of a survey aimed at describing the goals, processes and results of child counselling delivered on a one-to-one basis in community services, child welfare agencies and women’s shelters. Informal programs for children in women’s shelters are also described
