Download or read book The Influence Intimate Partner Violence on the Developing Mind written by Alexandria Hummel and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study is to evaluate how childhood trauma, specifically Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), can impact the brain development of children ages 0-5. This impact may affect a person for the rest of their lives. This study looks at how IPV and trauma disrupt and change developing minds by looking at, hormone and stress levels as well as, attachment and behavioral problems. Along with correlations between exposure to IPV and the future development of mental illness as well as problematic child behavior. Due to the sensitivity of the population, secondary data from books, journals, and articles were used to create an overall literature review. The overall findings through this review found correlations that witnessing IPV in infancy to early childhood can have a permanent effect on brain development, mental health, behavior, and attachment. Thus, supporting the hypothesis that IPV influences brain development of children ages 0-5 and correlates with future diagnoses of mental health, attachment, and behavioral disorders.

Download or read book To Have and To Hurt written by Angela Brownemiller Ph.D. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-08-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year, nearly 2 million injuries and some 1,300 deaths result from so-called intimate partner violence. In this work, psychotherapist Browne-Miller uses vignettes, as well as standing and emerging research, to detail both healthy and hurtful relationships and to show partners how to recognize and change relationships on, or headed toward, the path to abuse. She also explains when to leave a relationship, as well as how to do that so as to disentangle without further harm. This is a book that will interest not only those involved in, or who know of someone who is or might be involved in, an abusive relationship, but also students and scholars of psychology, counseling, social work, women's studies, and men's studies. When Cathy and John married 20 years ago, the relationship seemed almost charmed. But over the years as John's career became more established and Cathy raised the family of three children, things changed. First angry fights developed, followed by verbal and gestured threats of violence, and later, actual physical attacks and injuries. Several times Cathy called police, but when they arrived, fearing the social stigma as well as John's retribution, she would explain her injuries as dealt out by a prowler. When friends or family asked, she would claim the cuts or bruises were due to a fall or some other accident. But eventually, when her arm had been broken, a tooth knocked out, and her face bruised so badly she could not cover it up with makeup, she finally left the house and her husband—only to be stalked. Cathy and John are one couple that Angela Browne-Miller introduces us to in this book that looks at the increasingly publicized incidence of intimate partner violence, abuse that takes place behind closed doors, inside marriages and other loving relationships. Only a fraction of this abuse is ever reported, so just a fragment of the problem is reflected in national statistics that show nearly 2 million injuries and some 1,300 deaths annually caused by this so-called intimate partner violence. In this work, Browne-Miller uses vignettes, as well as standing and emerging research, to help us recognize the difference between a relationship being effected by normal stressors, and one that is abusive, or perhaps even deadly. Psychotherapist Browne-Miller details both healthy and hurtful relationships and shows partners how to recognize and change relationships on, or headed down, the path to abuse. And she also explains when we should leave a relationship, as well as how to do that to disentangle without further harm. This is a book that will interest not only lay readers who are involved in, or know of someone who is or might be involved in, an abusive relationship, but also students and scholars of psychology, counseling, social work, women's studies, and men's studies.

Book The Influence of Intimate Partner Violence  IPV  on Neurological and Language Development of Infants and Toddlers 3  24 Months

Download or read book The Influence of Intimate Partner Violence IPV on Neurological and Language Development of Infants and Toddlers 3 24 Months written by Ifeyinwa E. Udo and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About one in four women in the United States reports IPV at some point in their lifetime, with 1400 women in the United States dying annually as a result of IPV. While many studies have shown the negative impact of IPV on maternal health and wellbeing, not much is known about how maternal IPV impacts infants and toddlers under the age of two, specifically their neurological and language development. The present study examines the association between IPV scores of pregnant women participating in the Domestic Violence Enhanced Home Visitation Program (DOVE) and neurological and language development of infants and toddlers between the ages of 3--24 months. A total of 214 infants and toddlers born to women with mild, moderate and severe IPV were included in the analysis. IPV was determined by the Conflicts Tactics Scale-2 (CTS-2). Neurological and language development were measured with the Bayley Infant Neurodevelopmental Screener (BINS) and the Preschool Language Scale (PLS) respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the bivariate association between maternal IPV and infants and toddlers' neurological and language development and between other independent variables and neurological and language development. Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) models with logit link was used in the multivariate analyses to predict the risk neurological and language delay among infants and toddlers as a result of maternal IPV. Infants and toddlers born to women with moderate levels of IPV were 5 times more likely to experience language delay compared to infants and toddlers of women that experienced mild violence (OR=5.31, 95%CI=2.94--9.50, p-value=0.000) after adjusting for potential confounders. Mother's age, partner support, stress and child's gender were associated with language delay. Infants and toddlers born to women that experienced moderate and severe IPV were 5 times and almost 3 times more likely to experience neurological delay respectively, compared to infants and toddlers of women that experienced mild IPV (OR= 5.42, 95% CI= 2.99--9.82, p=0.000 & OR= 2.57, 95% CI= 1.11--5.61, p=0.026). -- Abstract.

Book How Intimate Partner Violence Affects Children

Download or read book How Intimate Partner Violence Affects Children written by Sandra A. Graham-Bermann and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 2011 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have estimated that 15 million American children are exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV) each year, with 7 million exposed to severe violence in their homes. The past decade has seen a surge in research and interventions for such children. We now know that IPV exposure affects children's physical health, social and emotional behavior, cognitive functioning, and neurobiological and relational development. Furthermore, a number of evidence-based interventions have been developed for children of different ages, from infancy through adolescence. It is now possible to provide services for children of different ages using evidence-based, age-appropriate interventions. Using a developmental framework, this book presents the most up-to-date research on how exposure to IPV affects children and how clinicians can treat these children. It combines outcome research, evidence-based interventions, and case study material for four different age groups: prenatal to infancy, toddler to early childhood, school-age children, and adolescents. With its threefold focus on research, interventions, and case studies, this book will appeal to all researchers, practitioners, and graduate students who work with children exposed to IPV.

Book Intimate Partner Violence

Download or read book Intimate Partner Violence written by Samuel R. Aymer and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intimate Partner Violence: Clinical Interventions with Partners and Their Children brings into focus an ecological and clinical frame for addressing the resulting psychological effects of intimate partner violence (IPV). Aymer presents a perspective that is often omitted from social science textbooks which are geared to policy practice, tending to expose students to macro-systemic ideas (including criminal justice policies and procedures) relative to IPV. However, this book expands clinical practice pedagogy by reinforcing the need for students to go beyond macro issues in order to deliver competent clinically-based interventions that help partners and their children work through the consequential effects of partner violence. Designed for graduate students in social work, psychology, gender studies and allied mental health programs, it expands the discourse, arguing that IPV is a complex psycho-social-political-relational problem that must be understood from a multi-theoretical perspective. Through case studies, theory, research, and the author's clinical practice wisdom, this text will: increase understanding of how to work clinically with women affected by IPV, increase knowledge of how to work with abusive men, heighten knowledge of how IPV affects children and adolescents, expand knowledge of social and cultural notions, and explore men's role in terms of advocating against gender-based violence.
