Psychological distress as a mediator of the relationship between childhood maltreatment and sleep quality in adolescence: Results from the Maltreatment and Adolescent Pathways (MAP) Longitudinal Study

An Exploratory Study of Physical Abuse–Related Shame, Guilt, and Blame in a Sample of Youth Receiving Child Protective Services: Links to Maltreatment, Anger, and Aggression

“…The CTQ has demonstrated good validity and reliability (Bernstein, Ahluvalia, Pogge, & Handelsman, 1997;Fink, Bernstein, Handelsman, Foote, & Lovejoy, 1995). Based on an earlier examination of data used in this study (McPhie et al, 2014), reliability was moderate to strong: EA, r = .70; sexual abuse, r = .52; emotional neglect, r = .63; and physical neglect, r = .56.…”

“…We used data from the initial testing and a 1-year follow-up in the Maltreatment and Adolescent Pathways (McPhie, Weiss, & Wekerle, 2014;Wekerle et al, 2009) project; this study includes youth receiving out-of-home care and in-home child protective services (CPS). From 562 total participants, we selected youth who reported a score of 1 or more on the Childhood Experiences of Violence Questionnaire (CEVQ; Walsh, MacMillan, Trocmé, Jamieson, & Boyle, 2008) and answered the appended questions on PA-related shame, guilt, and blame.…”

“…Youth were paid $28 at every testing period. Further description of the procedure is found elsewhere (e.g., McPhie et al, 2014;Wekerle et al, 2009). …”

Changes in sleep quality and levels of psychological distress during the adaptation to university: The role of childhood adversity

“…Child maltreatment is defined broadly as acts of commission (abuse) or omission (neglect) perpetrated by a caregiver that results in harm or threat of harm to a child (Leeb, Paulozzi, Melanson, Simon, & Arias, ). Maltreatment in childhood associates with increased sleep disturbances and reduced quality of sleep in adolescence and adulthood (Baiden, Fallon, den Dunnen, & Boateng, ; Kajeepeta, Gelaye, Jackson, & Williams, ; Koskenvuo, Hublin, Partinen, Paunio, & Koskenvuo, ; Mcphie, Weiss, & Wekerle, ; Ramswah, Ancoli‐Israel, Sullivan, & Hitchcock, ; Wang, Raffeld, Slopen, Hale & Dunn, 2016).…”

Psychological maltreatment, coping strategies, and mental health problems: A brief and effective measure of psychological maltreatment in adolescents

“…Longitudinal studies, for example, support the association between psychological maltreatment and various undesirable cognitive, emotional, and behavioral outcomes (Erickson et al, 1989;Gross & Keller, 1992;McPhie et al, 2014;Paul & Eckenrode, 2015;Silverman et al, 1996). Moreover, psychological maltreatment is reported to have a unique predictive role for mental health problems compared to other maltreatment experiences (Brown et al, 2016;Gross & Keller, 1992).…”
