Maltreatment history as persistent risk: An extension of Li and Godinet (2014)
Adverse Childhood Experiences and Child Health in Early Adolescence
IMPORTANCE: Child maltreatment and other adverse childhood experiences, especially when recent and ongoing, affect adolescent health. Efforts to intervene and prevent adverse childhood exposures should begin early in life but continue throughout childhood and adolescence. OBJECTIVES: To examine the relationship between previous adverse childhood experiences and somatic concerns and health problems in early adolescence, as well as the role of the …
Links between traumatic experiences and expectations about the future in high risk youth
The current analyses examined the role of past traumatic experiences in predicting expectations about social, academic, and occupational outcomes. These analyses were conducted in a sample of 843 youth, each 14 years old, who were participants in the Longitudinal Studies on Child Abuse and Neglect (LONGSCAN). The analyses took into account socioeconomic indicators. Three classes of expectations emerged from factor analyses: Academic/Employment Su…
Early Adolescent Risk Behavior Outcomes of Childhood Externalizing Behavioral Trajectories
Little is known about the early childhood indicators of adolescent risk. The link between trajectories of externalizing behavioral problems and early adolescent risk behavior was examined in a longitudinal sample of 875 child participants in the LONGSCAN studies. Five trajectory groups of children defined by externalizing behavior problems were identified: Low, Low-Medium, Moderate, Increasing-High, and High. After controlling for demographics an…
Witnessed violence and youth behavior problems: A multi‐informant study
Witnessed violence has significant negative consequences for youth behavior and mental health. However, many findings on the impact of witnessed violence have been based on a single informant. There is a general lack of consistency between caregiver and youth reports on both witnessed violence and behavioral problems. This study included data from both caregivers and youth and incorporated a multisource analytic approach to simultaneously examine…
What Works in Foster Care?: Key Components of Success From the Northwest Foster Care Alumni Study
This book reports the findings from the Northwest Foster Care Alumni Study, which examined outcomes for adults who were placed in family foster care as children. The primary research questions were as follows: (1) How are maltreated youth who were placed in foster care faring as adults? To what extent are they different in their functioning from other adults? (2) Are there key factors or program components that are linked with better functioning …

Children's self-reports about violence exposure: An examination of the Things I Have Seen and Heard Scale
Children's exposure to violence is often found to be an important predictor of child outcomes. The measures most frequently used to assess it have not been systematically examined, and there is little consensus about how to use these measures. This study examined a version of the Things I Have Seen and Heard Scale in a sample of 784 children who completed the scale at both age 6 and 8. There was only modest support for the use of the scale as a s…

Characteristics of Repeated Referrals to Child Protective Services in Washington State
This study replicates and extends prior research on the characteristics and correlates of child maltreatment recurrences based on an ecological model of child maltreatment. The use of a very large sample with a large number of risk factors avoids methodological shortcomings based on small samples size and sample selection bias. The risk and other characteristics of 12,329 referrals were studied to determine which factors related to recidivism wit…
The Extent and Consequences of Child Maltreatment
Specific, accurate understanding of the extent of maltreatment in American society, the nature of the maltreatment that occurs, and the consequences it has for children are crucial to inform policies regarding child protection and to guide the design of prevention and treatment programs. This article examines how child abuse and neglect are defined and discusses the controversies that surround that definition, which attracts attention because it …
