虐待儿童的理论方法的演变已经发展到复杂的多因素模型,其中包括父母,儿童和生态变量。这些模型进行了简要的审查,并指出,他们提供了全面的描述可能启动和维持虐待儿童的潜在的前因因素。然而,这一领域的最新提法现在开始趋于一致,认为照顾者的压力水平可能在确定虐待儿童方面发挥关键作用。据此,本文详细描述了儿童虐待的压力和应对模式。从目前的文献中有关心理过程的压力和应对,这个模型文件的各种手段,使压力水平可能会成为提高照顾者,从而有助于增加虐待儿童。该模型包括忽视儿童和身体虐待,并将这两个虐待领域的基本研究结果与心理学理论和关于压力和应对的研究相结合。在这个模型中,我们强调的关键功能,照顾者的认知评价和应对策略,进一步了解儿童虐待的解释。这种压力和应对模式的研究和临床实践中的儿童虐待域的其他影响进行了讨论。
The evolution, of theoretical approaches to child maltreatment has progressed to the point of complex, multifactorial models that incorporate parental, child, and ecological variables. These models are briefly reviewed and it is noted that they offer comprehensive descriptions of the potential antecedent factors that may initiate and maintain child maltreatment. The most recent formulations in this domain, however, have now begun to converge on the notion that levels of caregiver stress may play a critical role in determining child maltreatment. Accordingly, this paper describes in detail a stress and coping model of child maltreatment. Drawing from current literature on psychological processes relating to stress and coping, this model documents the various means whereby stress levels may become enhanced in caregivers, and thus contribute to increased child maltreatment. The model encompasses both child neglect and physical abuse, and integrates fundamental findings from these two maltreatment domains with psychological theory and research on stress and coping. In this model, we highlight the critical functions of the caregiver's cognitive appraisals and coping strategies in furthering our understanding of explanations of child maltreatment. Additional implications of this stress and coping model for research and clinical practice in the child maltreatment domain are then discussed.
