“…Moreover, the present study demonstrated for the first time that emotional trauma was directly associated with CBP. Although the association between childhood trauma and CBP is, to the best of authors' knowledge, being reported for the first time, several studies have found significant association between childhood trauma and bullying (Wang et al 2017), anxiety, anger, and fear (Sudbrack et al 2015). Moreover, emotional abuse has been found to be positively related with neuroticism and psychoticism which are significant predictors of CBP (Kırcaburun and Tosuntaş 2018;Ojedokun and Idemudia 2013;Ozden and Icellioglu 2014).…”

“…Individuals who have been emotionally maltreated as a child become violent and hostile adults. Research indicated that students who experience higher CT are more likely to be school bullying perpetrators (Wang et al 2017), have higher levels of negative feelings such as anxiety, anger, and fear, and lower stability, coping, and control (Sudbrack et al 2015). Meanwhile, other studies have reported that individuals with high anxiety, and low levels of stability and control, perpetrate more cyberbullying (Baldry et al 2017;Kırcaburun and Tosuntaş 2018).…”

Research suggests that a small minority of social media users experience problems as a result of their online use. The purpose of the present study was to examine the association of cyberbullying perpetration and problematic social media use with childhood emotional trauma, Cluster B (narcissistic, histrionic, antisocial, and borderline) personality traits, dissociative experiences (DEs), depression, and self-esteem in a nonclinical undergraduate sample. A total of 344 university students volunteered to complete a questionnaire that included measures on the aforementioned dimensions. Thirty-eight percent of the participants had emotional neglect and 27% had emotional abuse, while 44% of them demonstrated at least one cyberbullying perpetration behavior. Results indicated that cyberbullying perpetrators had higher scores on problematic social media use, dissociative experiences, Cluster B traits, depression and childhood emotional trauma, and lower on self-esteem. Path analysis demonstrated that, while adjusting for gender and age, childhood emotional trauma was directly and indirectly associated with cyberbullying perpetration via Cluster B traits. Moreover, depression and dissociation were directly associated with problematic social media use. The findings of this study emphasize the important direct role of childhood emotional trauma and pathological personality traits on cyberbullying perpetration.

“…The consequences of neglect can persist for many years, and have a devastating impact on child development, some of them even graver than those arising from physical violence. Thus, a policy of attaching greater importance to physical violence against children risks disregarding the real evil arising from neglect, which is harder to recognize given its subjective nature (7) . Historically, women have always been in charge of the private space.…”

Objective:To describe the phenomenon of child neglect and understand it in a gender context. Method: Retrospective, quantitative, and exploratory study that analyzed reports of violence by a child and adolescent protection network in a Brazilian city. The theoretical and methodological basis applied was TIPESC (Theory of Nursing Praxical Intervention in Collective Health), with a gender emphasis. Results: Neglect of children under the age of ten represents more than half the reports received over all the years studied; more boys than girls suffered neglect and 41.4% of the reports of neglect involved children under than age of three; women were identified as being solely responsible in 67.9%, and as accessories in 17.3% of the incidents reported. Conclusion: Child neglect is a complex matter, the gender subordinate status inflicted on these children and their mothers who are responsible for their care underscore the social vulnerability of this group. DESCRIPTORS INTRODUCTIONBrazil has legal provisions protecting children and adolescents from all varieties of violence, including neglect. Among many other requirements, the 1988 Federal Brazilian Constitution most particularly governs rules on citizenship and personal dignity in order to promote the wellbeing of all, with no discrimination or age limit. Its text on the rights of citizens guarantees "education, health, nourishment, work, home, leisure, security, social security, maternity and child protection, and aid for the unprotected" (1) . Brazilian public policy relating to children and adolescents is protective and promotes healthy growth and development. The Child and Adolescent Statute, enacted in 1990, establishes that children and adolescents are entitled to all inherent human rights and must be guaranteed the means for their full development. Anyone who inflicts neglect upon, or any other offense against, the integrity of, children and adolescents, shall be penalized for such act or omission (2) . Brazil's National Policy for Morbidity and Mortality through Accident or Violence confers a material role upon the health sector to deal with these offenses, without prejudice to the liability of other sectors of society, and recommends joint action with a number of different social sectors (3) . In 2001, the city of Curitiba, capital of the State of Paraná, criated the Network for the Protection of Children and Adolescents at Risk of Violence. The network's regulations (4) , drawn up in 2004, established the types and nature of acts of violence against children and adolescents susceptible to confinement in municipal institutions. It defined the categories of violence as being interfamily violence (committed by a family member inside or outside the home), extrafamily violence (occurring outside the family circle, where the aggressor could be any individual), auto aggression (including suicide and conduct regarded as threatening to the individual's physical integrity), and fetal violence (committed by a pregnant woman against the fetus or by a third p...

“…This may also be interpreted as associates to the oppressive social circumscriptions of non-heteronormative behavior ( 2014), which increases significantly the chances for social exclusion and traumatic life events, such as physical and emotional abuse and neglect (Espelage et al, 2014), as well as higher rates of suicidal ideation and attempts (Teixeira-Filho and Rondini, 2012). In fact, the emotional and affective profile outlined in this study resembles the one delineated in an investigation of temperament traits and affective types associated with childhood abuse and neglect experiences (Sudbrack et al, 2015). In this study, the intensity of a general trauma score (composed of emotional and physical abuse and neglect experiences) was inversely related with the traits of Volition, Stability, Coping, Control and Caution, while positively associated with higher scores on Sensitivity, Anxiety, Anger, Desire, and Fear traits.…”
