Trajectories of risk in early psychosocial development: Children of mothers exposed to intimate partner violence from refugee and non-refugee backgrounds in Australia.
Background: The maternal experience of intimate partner violence is associated with a range of emotional and behavioural problems in young children.
Objective: To prospectively examine the impact of maternal perinatal intimate partner violence experiences on children's risk trajectories of social-emotional development, including theoretically relevant social, economic, maternal mental health and trauma factors, as well as refugee status.
Participants: 870 mother-child dyads in the WATCH mental health cohort study, half from refugee background.
Method: Multigroup trajectory modelling of annually collected longitudinal data at 5 timepoints, from when the children were 18-24 months to 60 months of age.
Results: The trajectory modelling revealed 4 distinct trajectories of child social-emotional development: (1) "none or low risk" trajectory (n = 710, 81.6 % of the sample); (2) "declining risk" trajectory (n = 66, 7.6 %); (3) "intermittent risk" trajectory (n = 64, 7.4 %); and (4) "high increasing risk" trajectory (n = 30; 3.4 %). Compared to the group 1 "none or low risk", maternal IPV exposure to physical abuse at baseline was associated with 2.45 times greater odds of children following the "intermittent risk" development trajectory, and 4.90 times greater odds of children following the "high increasing risk" trajectory. Children in trajectory 4 "high increasing risk" were more likely to be male, and mothers were more likely to be born in Australia, have no tertiary education, and experience social and economic difficulties.
Conclusions: The study contributes significantly to understanding the deleterious impact of IPV on child development over time, including unique evidence that socially relevant and modifiable risk factors are more strongly associated with adverse child development than traditionally emphasised factors such as maternal mental health and child attachment factors.
期刊介绍:
Official Publication of the International Society for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect. Child Abuse & Neglect The International Journal, provides an international, multidisciplinary forum on all aspects of child abuse and neglect, with special emphasis on prevention and treatment; the scope extends further to all those aspects of life which either favor or hinder child development. While contributions will primarily be from the fields of psychology, psychiatry, social work, medicine, nursing, law enforcement, legislature, education, and anthropology, the Journal encourages the concerned lay individual and child-oriented advocate organizations to contribute.
