    Open AccessNikita Rao, Jessica L Kumar et al.ARTICLEJournal of Children s Services2023Citada por: 1Referencias: 20

    Purpose Parent–child relationships formed in early childhood have profound implications for a child’s development and serve as a determinant for bio-social outcomes in adulthood. Positive parenting behaviors play a strong role in this development and are especially impactful during times of crisis because they buffer stressors that may lead to externalizing and internalizing behaviors. Children of forced migrants experience numerous extreme stres…

    Open AccessLindsey Rose Bullinger, Angela Boy et al.ARTICLEJournal of Family Issues2023Citada por: 2Referencias: 34

    We use high-frequency mobile phone movement data and quick-release administrative data from Georgia to examine how time at home during the COVID-19 pandemic is related to child maltreatment referrals. Findings show that referrals plummeted by 58% relative to previous years, driven by fewer referrals from education personnel. After this initial decline, however, each 15 minutes at home was associated with an increase in referrals of material negle…
