Child Abuse and Trauma Intimate Partner and Family Violence Child and Adolescent Psychosocial and Emotional Development

Abstract

This study examines the impact of exposure to family violence on school-aged boys. Boys who had witnessed violence between their parents were compared to boys who had been abused by their parents. The findings indicate that boys exposed to violence had a pattern of adjustment problems similar to those of abused boys and significantly different in severity and type from those of a community comparison group.
