“…They suggest that a flexible and rich repertoire of strategies facilitates coping with different life challenges and complex traumatic situations (25). Our results showed significant positive associations between emotion-oriented coping strategies and neglect, which is in accordance with the results of Shipman et al (40). These authors found that neglected children used less effective stress-coping strategies than nonneglected children.…”

Aim To retrospectively analyze the rate of multi-type abuse in childhood and the effects of childhood abuse and type of coping strategies on the psychological adaptation of young adults in a sample form the student population of the University of Mostar. MethodsThe study was conducted on a convenience sample of 233 students from the University of Mostar (196 female and 37 male), with a median age of 20 (interquartile range, 2). Exposure to abuse was determined using the Child Maltreatment Scales for Adults, which assesses emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, neglect, and witnessing family violence. Psychological adaptation was explored by the Trauma Symptom Checklist, which assesses anxiety/ depression, sexual problems, trauma symptoms, and somatic symptoms. Strategies of coping with stress were explored by the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations.Results Multi-type abuse in childhood was experienced by 172 participants (74%) and all types of abuse by 11 (5%) participants. Emotional and physical maltreatment were the most frequent types of abuse and mostly occurred together with other types of abuse. Significant association was found between all types of abuse (r = 0.436-0.778, P < 0.050). Exposure to sexual abuse in childhood and coping strategies were significant predictors of anxiety/depression (R 2 = 0.3553), traumatic symptoms (R 2 = 0.2299), somatic symptoms (R 2 = 0.2173), and sexual problems (R 2 = 0.1550, P < 0.001). ConclusionExposure to multi-type abuse in childhood is a traumatic experience with long-term negative effects. Problem-oriented coping strategies ensure a better psychosocial adaptation than emotion-oriented strategies.

“…In overlapping research, early life caregiving experiences and trauma exposures have been shown to impact childhood emotional understanding and expression (62,63) with some studies showing differential gender effects (64). Children exposed to violence and neglect in their environment have been found to express higher levels of negative emotion (anxiety, depressive mood, anger, hostility, and irritability) and more adverse stress reactivity (65,66).…”

“…Bien que toutes les formes de maltraitance aient des conséquences néfastes, les répercussions de la négligence sur les développements cognitif, social et émotionnel des enfants seraient des plus dommageables (Fantuzzo, Perlman, et Dobbins, 2011;Hildyard et Wolfe, 2002). À court terme, ces enfants démontrent une plus grande difficulté à comprendre les émotions négatives chez l'autre, ainsi qu'une moins bonne maîtrise de leurs émotions (Shipman, Edwards, Brown, Swisher et Jennings, 2005). Ils éprouvent également des difficultés en mathématiques, en lecture et ils obtiennent des résultats aux tests de quotient intellectuel près d'un écart-type sous la moyenne (Lounds, Borkowski et Withman, 2006).…”

La négligence auprès des enfants est un phénomène reconnu et largement documenté. Malgré les nombreuses études sur le sujet, il demeure difficile de bien mesurer quelle réponse la famille et son environnement offrent aux besoins des enfants. Cette difficulté pourrait expliquer pourquoi les études actuelles peinent à documenter des changements au sein des familles en contexte de négligence. L’article s’appuie sur une définition écosystémique de la négligence et présente l’élaboration d’un outil destiné à fournir une analyse des besoins de l’enfant, de la réponse qu’il obtient, ainsi que des caractéristiques de l’environnement familial et social dans lequel il grandit. L’outil préconise en outre une approche participative auprès des familles en permettant aux intervenants, mais également aux figures parentales de se prononcer sur la situation familiale. Les propos de 54 parents et de 8 intervenants ont été analysés de façon qualitative afin de connaître les avantages et les défis reliés à l’utilisation de l’outil proposé.
