“…This is an additive scale of 13 items assessing the diversity of deviance engaged in by the respondent's friends. Another indicator of deviant lifestyles is witnessing violence (Copping, 1996;Feigelman, Howard, Li, & Cross, 2000), measured in this study by how many of six different types of violence the juvenile has witnessed. The final indicator is the number of different types of deviant acts engaged in by the respondent.…”

To Tell or Not to Tell: Lifestyle Impacts on Whether Adolescents Tell About Violent Victimization

Adolescent sexual and physical victimization is an issue of serious social concern in our society. This study examines the predictors of whether juveniles tell about these experiences. We specifically question whether the adolescents' lifestyles inhibit victims from telling anyone about the assault and determine if such predictors vary by sex. Using data from the National Survey of Adolescents, we find that the victims' lifestyles do predict help-seeking but that the importance of these measures varies by the type of victimization and the sex of the adolescent. Lifestyles influence reporting the event more consistently for victims of sexual assaults than physical assaults. In addition, while several lifestyle measures are significant for sexually victimized girls, the context of the event is more important for boys who are sexually victimized. Aspects of the adolescents' lifestyles are not as important for telling about physical victimization.

“…These behaviors may initially increase when they arrive at the shelter only to later decrease. According to Fredland et al (2014), this might be related to the shelter being a safe place where the children can externalize their emotions related to the violence (see also Copping, 1996;Troensegaard, 2014). Similarly, Pinto et al (2019) show that children living in shelters exhibit more internalizing and externalizing symptoms than children who continue living with the abuser, suggesting that the symptoms are a result of the loss of their social network.…”

The aim of this systematic integrative review was to review existing research on children in domestic violence shelters, and specifically to examine previous research on how shelters contribute to children’s life situation after leaving a violent home. The review includes 28 scientific articles published between 1984 and 2021. These were thematically analyzed and discussed using a children’s rights perspective to identify strengths and limitations in existing research and social work practice. The analysis resulted in five themes: (1) safety and security, (2) health, behavior, and support, (3) schooling, (4) spare time and shelter environment, and (5) social relationships. Safety and security is a theme of great importance, and if this aspects is lacking, it can adversely affect other areas of the children’s lives. Overall, the children feel safe at the shelters, and they appreciate the playgrounds and activities offered by the shelter. They often make friends at the shelter. The children’s right to be protected from violence appears to be prioritized, but the studies show the importance of also acknowledging children’s rights to support, education, recreational time, and social relationships, to improve their life situation at the shelter.

“…The Intergenerational Trauma Treatment Model (Copping, 1996) represents an alternate model for treatment of complex trauma in childhood. It differs from previous models in its combination of cognitive-behavioral and psychoanalytically informed strategies for understanding and intervening with families and with its focus on parents as the mechanism of change for their child.…”

“…In this paper, we present another promising model for the treatment of childhood trauma: the Intergenerational Trauma Treatment Model (Copping, 1996; Copping, Warling, Benner, & Woodside, 2001). This model incorporates many of the features of empirically-supported methods of treatment including trauma exposure, cognitive processing and reframing, stress management and parent education (Cohen, Mannarino, Berliner & Deblinger, 2000).…”

Chronic or complex childhood trauma, such as abuse, neglect, exposure to violence or parental criminality, is strongly associated with the development of criminal behaviors later in life. This paper presents the Intergenerational Trauma Treatment Model (ITTM), a 21-session, manualized intervention designed to ameliorate the impact of chronic trauma on children's development. Treatment proceeds in three phases: psychoeducational group sessions for parents; individual sessions to address parental trauma impact; and finally child and parent intervention to address trauma-related behaviors and symptoms and promote stronger parentchild relations. Unique features of the ITTM include attention to intergenerational patterns of trauma transmission and focus on parents as the key agents of change for their children.
