“…[1][2][3] According to previous studies, the prevalence of children who experience one or several forms of maltreatment, defined as physical, sexual, and emotional abuse and emotional and physical neglect, is between 10 and 36%. [1,[3][4][5][6] Child maltreatment often causes injuries to the head, face, mouth and neck with different frequencies, ranging from 23% for neglect to 75% for physical abuse cases. [7][8][9][10] Child maltreatment is associated with poor selfperceived oral health, and maltreated children have a higher incidence of untreated tooth decay, poorer oral hygiene, worse oral health and more missed health care appointments than the general population.…”

“…Alternatively or additionally, it may involve a failure to see that a child is properly educated or able to grow in an adequate, socially nurturing environment, or to receive emotional support and love [2]. Child neglect is often, but not always, accompanied by other forms of abuse, including physical and sexual abuse [1,3]. Of all the forms of child abuse, neglect are perhaps the least well researched and documented academically [1].…”

Child neglect, through physical, mental, and emotional deprivation, is a worldwide phenomenon. However, until comparatively recently, scientific data and academic research on it within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) had been extremely limited due to the conservative nature of the society in this country. A systemic review was conducted, using several databases, including those of Cross Search, Social Sciences Citation Index, two Saudi universities, and manual searches of key journals of literature on child neglect in KSA published between 1990 and 2016. The results of this review are presented, which summarize the present state of knowledge of child neglect in Saudi Arabia and what progress has been made toward a full understanding of the extent and nature of the problem. The statistical evidence currently available on the incidence and prevalence of neglect is displayed together with qualitative information on cases of neglect that have been documented by doctors, social workers, and other professionals working in the field. The present state of provision of government programs to assist and support victims of child neglect in Saudi Arabia is considered and contrasted with the services available in other, predominantly Western nations. It is noted that, in addition to a still-inadequate level of investment in this area, present programs in the Kingdom are not well-suited to preventing neglect in the first place. Recommendations are made as to what steps could be taken in the future to improve and expand Saudi provision of care to address this problem.

“…Une récente méta-analyse couvrant près de 60 000 participants et qui portait sur la prévalence mondiale de la négligence physique et émotionnelle des enfants révèle des taux de prévalence plus élevés lorsque la négligence émotionnelle est rapportée par les enfants eux-mêmes. En effet, les résultats de cette étude indiquent que, à travers le monde, 184 enfants sur 1000 rapportent être victimes de négligence émotionnelle (Stoltenborgh, Bakermans-Kranenburg et van Ijzendoorn, 2013), un taux environ 30 fois plus élevé que celui dont font état les services de protection de l'enfance.…”

Cette étude visait à déterminer si la régulation émotionnelle et l’empathie de l’enfant revêtent une fonction médiatrice entre le rejet maternel et les comportements de l’enfant. Des données ont été recueillies auprès d’un échantillon de 103 dyades mères-enfants (49 garçons et 54 filles âgés de 6 à 13 ans) recrutées dans trois écoles primaires et issues de familles majoritairement francophones. Les enfants et leur mère ont rempli des questionnaires afin de documenter le rejet et l’acceptation maternelle perçus par les enfants, leur régulation émotionnelle, leur empathie et leurs comportements prosociaux et antisociaux. Quatre modèles de médiation ont été testés par l’entremise du programme PROCESS (Hayes, 2013). Une technique de ré-échantillonnage à 10000 itérations a permis de déterminer que le rejet maternel était indirectement lié aux comportements prosociaux et antisociaux des enfants par l’entremise de la manière dont ils gèrent leurs émotions. En revanche, le rejet maternel n’apparaît pas indirectement lié aux comportements des enfants par l’entremise de leur empathie. Des études ultérieures utilisant un échantillon plus large et une mesure plus concrète de l’empathie sont nécessaires.
