Perspectives on a system-oriented trauma-informed approach in schools: A qualitative study using the Trauma-Informed Programs and Practices for Schools (TIPPS) framework
students. Findings strengthen our understanding of the supports needed by school professionals to implement a system-wide trauma-informed approach. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved)
Emotion regulation difficulties during pregnancy mediate the relationship between childhood maltreatment and emotional, external, and restraint eating
Trajectories and predictors of maternal eating behaviors across the first year postpartum: The role of women's childhood trauma in emotional, external and restraint eating
Risk factors for intimate partner violence victimization across 8 years: Contributions of the posttraumatic stress symptom domains
Findings are that collapsing PTS symptoms into an overall construct may be too imprecise to identify key mechanisms for IPV victimization risk. IPV prevention should prioritize addressing reexperiencing and arousal symptoms to curb future IPV victimization. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
Conducting virtual assessments in developmental research: Covid-19 restrictions as a case example
Developmental researchers face considerable challenges regarding maximizing data collection and reducing participant attrition. In this article, we use our experiences implementing our study on the effects of timing of prenatal stress on maternal and infant outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic as a framework to discuss the difficulties and solutions for these challenges, including the development of two types of virtual assessments. Specific inf…
Food addiction and dietary restraint in postpartum women: The role of childhood trauma exposure and postpartum depression
From zero to thrive: A model of cross‐system and cross‐sector relational health to promote early childhood development across the child‐serving ecosystem
Early relational health between caregivers and children is foundational for child health and well‐being. Children and caregivers are also embedded within multiple systems and sectors, or a “child‐serving ecosystem”, that shapes child development. Although the COVID‐19 pandemic has made this embeddedness abundantly clear, systems remain siloed and lack coordination. Fostering relational health amongst layers of this ecosystem may be a way to syste…
Treating attention problems in children exposed to intimate partner violence: Evaluating the Preschool Kids’ Club
Investigating the effects of the Moms’ Empowerment Program on 8-year traumatic stress symptom trajectories in women with histories of IPV
OBJECTIVE: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a pressing issue, affecting nearly one-third of women in the U.S. over their lifetimes, and has been linked with a number of deleterious outcomes, including the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Although IPV is often chronic, few studies have prospectively examined trajectories of PTSD symptoms (PTSS) in this population. The goal of the present study was to assess the effects of the…
Dyadic Profiles of Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms in Mothers and Children Experiencing Intimate Partner Violence
Latent Profiles of Parenting among Women Exposed to Intimate Partner Violence
Intimate partner violence (IPV) continues to be a widely prevalent problem and has strong negative consequences for women and children. Parenting effectively (for example, practicing warm and supportive parenting and refraining from the use of physical discipline) may be very difficult for women who have experienced IPV and who have children. At the same time, parenting behaviors such as the use of warm and supportive parenting or the use of phys…
Moms’ Empowerment Program participation associated with improved physical health among Latinas experiencing intimate partner violence
These data suggest that enhancing interpersonal connectedness and access to resources positively affects physical health for Latinas experiencing IPV
Understanding the Role of Alcohol, Anxiety, and Trait Mindfulness in the Perpetration of Physical and Sexual Dating Violence in Emerging Adults
This study examines alcohol consumption, anxiety, trait mindfulness, and physical and sexual dating violence aggression (PDV and SDV) among 735 emerging adults (18-25 years) in an urban emergency department. Of the total sample, 27.2% perpetrated PDV and 16.5% perpetrated SDV. Alcohol was positively associated with PDV/SDV. Anxiety was positively associated with PDV. Mindfulness was negatively associated with PDV/SDV. Interaction analyses reveale…
Reducing Intimate Partner Violence Among Latinas Through the Moms’ Empowerment Program: An Efficacy Trial
Posttraumatic stress disorder in Latina women: Examining the efficacy of the Moms’ Empowerment Program
This adaptation of a program designed to reduce problems associated with experiencing IPV addressed several mental health treatment needs for Latinas, particularly the need for services in Spanish. These findings demonstrate that it is possible to tailor current treatment programs for IPV in ways that are both effective and culturally sensitive. (PsycINFO Database Record
