“…Placement in a residential school was identified as a major risk factor for sexual abuse among deaf and hard-of-hearing children. Similar results were obtained in a 5-year retrospective study of 4,340 child patients in a pediatric hospital wherein the majority (68%) were victims of sexual abuse and 32% were victims of physical abuse perpetrated by family members (Willging et al 1992). Other work in nonmedical settings in Great Britain (Westcott 1991), Australia (Turk and Brown 1992), and Canada (Sobsey and Doe 1991) also identified sexual abuse as the most prevalent form of maltreatment among children with disabilities.…”

The focus of this paper is children with disabilities exposed to a broad range of violence types including child maltreatment, domestic violence, community violence, and war and terrorism. Because disability research must be interpreted on the basis of the definitional paradigm employed, definitions of disability status and current prevalence estimates as a function of a given paradigm are initially considered. These disability paradigms include those used in federal, education, juvenile justice, and health care arenas. Current prevalence estimates of childhood disability in the U.S. are presented within the frameworks of these varying definitions of disability status in childhood. Summaries of research from 2000 to 2008 on the four types of violence victimization addressed among children with disabilities are presented and directions for future research suggested.

[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] However, the characteristics of presumed accidental ear injury in children are poorly documented. The aim of this prospective study was to document the characteristics of children presenting with presumed accidental ear injury.…”
