Patterns of violence exposure in a life-course perspective and associations to mental and physical health problems and health-related risk behaviors among women and men in Sweden
Gendered patterns of poly-victimization and their health-related consequences underscore the importance of early intervention to prevent revictimization. The identification of unique and resilient clusters among women, despite similar childhood violence exposure, highlights the need for further research into protective mechanisms and trauma-to-benefit pathways, as conceptualized within the TTB framework
Violence in adulthood amplifies the health correlates of childhood maltreatment

This points to the importance of early identification of child maltreatment and provision of robust services to protect children, treat symtoms of trauma, and enh…

The assembly of active participation by parents of children subject to a multi‐agency model of early intervention in child and family services
The Common Assessment Framework provides a model of early intervention, which is familiar in local authorities throughout England, and asserts a participatory framework of child and family engagement. This paper is based on a qualitative study of parents and children who were subject to a multi‐agency process of early intervention in children's social care in a local authority in the Midlands of England. I advance the concept of assemblage to con…

This article draws on data from a research project undertaken in 1 local authority in the Midlands of England, to explore the experiences of children, young people, and their families, who were engaged in the process of multi‐agency early interventi…
And they gave me a shot, it really hurt” – Evaluative content in investigative interviews with young children
Research is scarce on the suitability of the evidence-based components of child investigative interviews when used in non-forensic contexts, such as social work or school, particularly in relation to children's reports on emotional content. This explorative study investigated to what extent a structured forensic interview protocol aids children in verbalizing negative emotional experiences of distress or discomfort. To do this we assessed and com…
