“…Mothers, as compared to fathers, reported higher rates and more frequent use of corporal punishment on their children. 42 it could be because of high stress of mothers in daily life. In the middle class families in Tripura, the majority of the mothers are working outside for earning money to run the family comfortably after doing all household chores and looking after the children.…”

Abstract:Background: Violence against children is a deep-rooted social problem in India. The problem is also related to economic as well as cultural beliefs and practices. The objective of this study was to ascertain the prevalence and nature of violence experienced by the children in families in Tripura, India and its relationship with socio-economic factors. Methods: A group of 320 children (160 males and 160 females) studying in Class VIII and IX and aged between 14-19 participated in the study after obtaining their informed consent from eight randomly selected English and Bengali medium schools in Agartala, Tripura (India). Data were collected by using a specially designed 'Semi-structured Questionnaire. Results: Findings revealed that about 20.9% (67/320), 21.9% (70/230) and 18.1% (58/230) of the children experienced psychological, physical and sexual violence respectively. Male children were more likely to be victims of psychological and physical violence while female children experienced more sexual violence (p less than 0.01).Further analysis of data revealed some relationship between violence against children and nuclear family(p was less than 0.01),uncongenial and/or disturbed family environment (p was less than 0.01)and dominating, short-tempered and/or aggressive parent personality (p was less than 0.01),irrespective of the nature of the violence. Physical violence was found to be more prevalent in high income families (p was less than 0.01) while children from the lower income group of families experienced more psychological violence (p was less than 0.01). Sexual violence was found to be equally prevalent in all socio-economic groups. The study also clearly indicated that academic performance of violence-experienced children, irrespective of nature of violence and socio-economic groups was poor compared to academic performance of non-violence-experienced children (p was less than 0.01). Conclusions: About one-fifth of the children under study did experience violence in Tripura. Findings speak in favor of an intervention program for creating awareness among parents and teachers about the issue of violence against children, targeted at parents when they meet for periodic parent-teachers meetings in the educational institutions.

“…For example, Eckenrode, Laird, and Doris (1993) found that maltreated children had lower test scores in math and reading, lower grades, increased levels of grade repetition, and more disciplinary referrals than their non-maltreated counterparts. Zolotor and colleagues (1999) found that substantiation of child maltreatment was significantly predictive of poor school performance within their high-risk sample. Further, Leiter and Johnsen (1994) found that maltreated children fared significantly worse than comparison children on a range of school-related outcomes, including standardized test scores, GPA, and grade retention.…”

Physical child abuse is a predictor of antisocial behavior in adolescence and adulthood. Few studies have investigated factors that moderate the risk of physical child abuse for later occurring outcomes, including antisocial behavior. The current analysis uses data from the Lehigh Longitudinal Study to investigate the prediction of antisocial behavior from physical child abuse and the buffering role of 3 school-related factors (i.e., school commitment, school dropout, and IQ) which are hypothesized to change the course of antisocial behavior from childhood into the adult years. Results show an association between physical child abuse and early antisocial behavior. Early antisocial behavior predicts antisocial behavior in adolescence, and that, in turn, predicts antisocial behavior in adulthood. Child IQ moderated the relationship between child physical abuse and antisocial behavior in childhood. However, no other moderation effects were observed. Limitations and implications for future research and prevention are discussed.

“…Les nombreuses recherches étudiant spécifiquement le lien entre la maltraitance et le développement cognitif convergent toutes vers la même conclusion : l’enfant subissant de la maltraitance aura tendance à vivre plus de difficultés à l’école que celui n’en subissant pas (Eckenrode, Laird & Doris, 1993; Leiter & Johnsen, 1994; Rowe & Eckenrode, 1999; Stone, 2007) et celles-ci persistent jusqu’à l’âge adulte (Perez & Widom, 1994). Des études au devis longitudinal ont démontré que la présence de maltraitance permettait de prédire un déclin sur le plan de la réussite scolaire (Coohey, Renner, Hua, Zhang & Whitney, 2011; Fantuzzo, Perlman & Dobbins, 2011; Leiter & Johnsen, 1997; Zolotor et al, 1999), qui s’expliquerait par l’entremise de déficits sur le développement cognitif et intellectuel (Irigaray et al, 2013; Veltman & Browne, 2001). La maltraitance parentale peut prendre plusieurs formes, notamment la négligence physique, la négligence émotionnelle ou l’abus physique, sexuel ou psychologique.…”

Cette étude s’intéresse à la relation entre le rejet maternel, comme forme de maltraitance psychologique, et le succès scolaire des enfants. Plus précisément, l’étude vise à déterminer si la régulation des émotions ou les problèmes de comportement agissent comme médiateurs du lien entre le rejet parental et le succès scolaire. L’échantillon d’enfants (N = 189) a été recruté au sein de trois écoles primaires francophones de la grande région de Montréal. Les enfants ont rempli des questionnaires afin de mesurer le rejet maternel perçu, leur régulation émotionnelle et leurs comportements prosociaux et antisociaux. Le succès scolaire a été mesuré en combinant les notes de fin d’année scolaire en français et en mathématiques. Dans le but de tester l’hypothèse d’un modèle médiateur, l’effet indirect du rejet sur le succès scolaire par l’entremise de la régulation émotionnelle et des comportements a été estimé grâce à l’outil statistique « PROCESS » (Hayes, 2013). Les résultats montrent que la régulation émotionnelle agit en tant que médiateur de ce lien. Toutefois, les comportements prosociaux et antisociaux n’agissent pas en tant que médiateurs du lien entre le rejet maternel et le succès scolaire. Ce résultat suggère donc que la régulation émotionnelle contribue à expliquer le processus par lequel les enfants qui ressentent le plus le rejet maternel réussissent moins bien à l’école. Ainsi, améliorer la capacité de régulation des émotions chez les enfants qui se sentent rejetés pourrait réduire leur vulnérabilité sur le plan de la réussite scolaire.
