The Development and Application of a Potentially Traumatic Events Checklist for Conflict-Affected Pupils Living in the Occupied Palestinian Territory
Children and young people living in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OTP) are repeatedly exposed to potentially traumatic events that can challenge their mental health and school functioning. This study aimed to develop a practical checklist of conflict-related potentially traumatic events of relevance in the school context throughout the OPT. Post-traumatic stress reactions (PTSR) and school functioning assessed the predictive validity of the…
The impact of mother's mental health, infant characteristics and war trauma on the acoustic features of infant‐directed singing
Infant‐directed singing (IDSi) is a natural means of dyadic communication that contributes to children's mental health by enhancing emotion expression, close relationships, exploration and learning. Therefore, it is important to learn about factors that impact the IDSi. This study modeled the mother‐ (mental health), infant‐ (emotional responses and health status) and environment (war trauma)‐related factors influencing acoustic IDSi features, su…
Assessment of service provider competency for child and adolescent psychological treatments and psychosocial services in global mental health
This study demonstrated positive results on the reliability and utility of the WeACT, with sufficient inter-rater agreement, excellent internal consistency, sensitivity to assess change, and providing insight needs for remedial training. The WeACT holds promise as a tool for monitoring quality of care when implementing evidence-based care at scale
It Takes Time to Unravel the Ecology of War in Gaza, Palestine
Toxicant, teratogen and carcinogen metal war remnants negatively affect human health. The current study analyzes, first, the persistence of heavy metal contamination in newborn hair in four cohorts across time in Gaza Palestine; second, the change in mothers' and infants' heavy metal contamination from birth to toddlerhood; and third, the impact of heavy metal contamination on infants' and toddlers' growth and development. The hair of newborns wa…
Factors contributing to student academic underachievement in war and conflict
Caregiving representations in war conditions
Risk features in mothers’ caregiving representations remain understudied in dangerous environments where infants most urgently need protective parenting. This pilot study examines the feasibility of a novel coding system for the Parent Development Interview (PDI) interview (ARR, Assessment of Representational Risk) in assessing 50 war‐exposed Palestinian mothers’ caregiving representations. First, we explored the content and structure of risks in…
Maternal experience of their infants’ crying in the context of war trauma
We examined, first, how prenatal maternal mental health and war trauma predicted mothers’ experience of their infant crying, indicated by emotions, cognitions, and behavior; and second, how these experiences influenced the mother–infant interaction and infant development. Participants were 511 Palestinian mothers from the Gaza Strip, reporting their war trauma, symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and perceived stress dur…
Is silence about trauma harmful for children? Transgenerational communication in Palestinian families
Style of family communication is considered important in the transgenerational transmission of trauma. This study had three aims: first, to identify the contents of family communication about past national trauma; second, to examine how parents' current war trauma is associated with transgenerational communication; and third, to analyze the associations between transgenerational communication and children's mental health, measured as posttraumati…
Maternal pre- and postnatal mental health and infant development in war conditions
Interventions to protect early child development in war conditions should be tailored to support maternal mental health. (PsycINFO Database Record
Maternal Trauma Affects Prenatal Mental Health and Infant Stress Regulation Among Palestinian Dyads
We examined how diverse and cumulated traumatic experiences predicted maternal prenatal mental health and infant stress regulation in war conditions and whether maternal mental health mediated the association between trauma and infant stress regulation. Participants were 511 Palestinian mothers from the Gaza Strip who reported exposure to current war trauma (WT), past childhood emotional (CEA) and physical abuse, socioeconomic status (SES), prena…
