Intergenerational Cycles of Maltreatment
The intergenerational continuity of child maltreatment (CM) is a growing public health concern. Identifying modifiable risk and protective factors involved in these cycles is crucial. A previous scoping review synthesized the literature on psychosocial factors associated with intergenerational CM up to 2018. Since then, a sizable number of studies have been published; this updated review aims to summarize this recent literature. We conducted a co…
Patterns of vulnerability
This study built on a prior work of families involved in Child Welfare over generations. • Distinct clinical profiles were found for each latent class group. • Mothers in the Risk of CM group presented with histories of neglect and criminality. • Parents in the Highly Polyvictimized group had pervasive trauma and mental health needs. • The Sexual Abuse, Physical Abuse, and Neglect group featured paternal chronic illness. • Exposure to IPV and Psy…
A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Association between Childhood Exposure to Intimate Partner Violence and Intimate Partner Violence Victimization/Perpetration in Adulthood in Africa
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is widespread in many African countries. Evidence, mainly from Western countries, shows that exposure to IPV in childhood is an important risk factor for experiences of IPV in adulthood. However, to date, no systematic review has synthesized the evidence on this association for individuals living in Africa, which is the goal of the current study. We used three search strategies: database searches (e.g., MEDLINE and…
Child maltreatment typologies within intergenerational contexts
These findings clarify the co-occurrence of CM types and how parental CM influences child typologies of CM in a two-generation sample, providing crucial insights for CM prevention. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
Adaptation and Implementation of a Trauma‐Informed Approach in a Community Organisation Serving Young Mothers
Community organisations can play a key role in supporting trauma‐impacted young mothers. Trauma‐informed care (TIC) can be vital to support service providers in their work with trauma‐impacted young mothers and can improve the well‐being of all actors within an organisation. This mixed‐methods case study used a collaborative approach to implement TIC within a small community organisation supporting young mothers. It assessed the impact of several…
Childhood Maltreatment and Perinatal Complications
Child maltreatment (CM) poses significant risks to victims, resulting in enduring physical, psychological, and developmental consequences. Adult survivors of CM seem especially vulnerable to perinatal complications. However, existing research on perinatal outcomes presents mixed results and relies heavily on self-reported data, which may not align with official medical data. Hence, a systematic review using official health data may provide clarit…
The investigation of sleep patterns in relation to interpersonal violence victimization and mental health in adolescent girls
The findings of this study, while awaiting replication with a more diverse sample, highlight the continued need to understand the interplay between interpersonal violence and sleep quality, which can help to inform trauma-focused clinical interventions.

Multilevel Factors Associated with Unsupportive Emotion Socialization
Intergenerational Childhood Exposure to Intimate Partner Violence, Maternal Psychological Distress, and Physical Injury Victimization in Emerging Adults
Disentangling the Associations Between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Child Sexual Abuse
An Analysis of Risk and Protective Factors Associated with Cyber-Dating Violence Victimization of Adolescent Girls
Homotypical and Heterotypical Intergenerational Continuity of Child Maltreatment
Child maltreatment (CM) in one generation can predict CM in the next generation, a concept known as intergenerational continuity. Yet, the form taken by the intergenerational continuity of CM remains unclear and fathers are mostly absent from this literature. This longitudinal study aimed to document patterns of intergenerational continuity of substantiated CM, on the maternal and paternal sides, by examining the presence of: homotypical CM, whic…
Experiences in Adult Relationships After Nonsexual Child Maltreatment
I Was Trying to Be the Mother to Her That I Didn’t Have
Child sexual abuse (CSA) can have lasting negative impacts on one's sense of safety and trust, ultimately affecting the quality of relationships, and increasing the likelihood of future victimization experiences. The present study provides a qualitative description of the themes that were generated through interviews conducted with 23 mothers who experienced CSA (dis)continuity (12 continuity, 11 discontinuity). The mothers described a variety of…
Unpacking the effects of child maltreatment subtypes on emotional competence in emerging adults
These results highlight the importance of including a standard set of child maltreatment subtypes in prediction models of emotional competence to avoid the misattribution or overestimation of the effects of child maltreatment subtype on emotional competence.

Risk Factors for Sexual Revictimization and Dating Violence in Young Adults with a History of Child Sexual Abuse
Intergenerational Cycles of Maltreatment
Child maltreatment tends to show intergenerational continuity. However, a significant proportion of maltreated parents break these cycles. Since several studies have investigated risk and protective factors associated with the intergenerational continuity of child maltreatment over the past decades, and no systematic review of the literature is available, this scoping review aimed to summarize studies documenting associated psychosocial risk and …
