在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间，全球研究人员试图了解冠状病毒带来的健康和社会经济危机是如何影响儿童遭受暴力的。由于遏制措施扰乱了许多数据收集和研究工作，研究不得不依靠现有数据或设计新的方法来收集相关信息。本文回顾了关于大流行期间儿童遭受暴力的文献，以了解新出现的模式，并批判性地评价方法，以帮助为未来研究的设计提供信息。文章最后对未来的研究提出了建议。这项研究需要检索工作论文、技术报告和期刊文章。该搜索使用搜索词组合来识别2020年3月1日至12月31日期间发表的相关文章和报告。根据范围和研究设计对来源进行评估。审查确定了48份关于COVID-19对暴力侵害儿童行为影响的近期工作文件、技术报告和期刊文章。的范围和方法,评估了三个主要发现:1)研究集中在身体或心理暴力在家里则较少受到关注,其他形式的针对儿童的暴力,2)大多数研究都依赖行政记录,而其他数据源,如调查或大数据,一般不使用,和3)不同的定义和研究设计直接被用来收集数据,导致几乎没有可归纳的结果。关于儿童遭受暴力的经历，审查得出了四个主要结论：1)研究发现，警察报告和转介儿童保护服务的人数有所减少；2)拨打警察或家庭暴力求助热线的人数喜忧参半；3)文章显示，在医院治疗的与虐待有关的儿童伤害有所增加；4)调查报告，家庭暴力有所增加。这项审查强调了影响暴力侵害儿童行为数据的可得性和质量的持续挑战，包括缺乏衡量这一敏感问题的标准，以及基线数据的可得性有限。未来关于COVID-19和暴力侵害儿童行为的研究应解决本审查中发现的一些空白。
Throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers across the globe have attempted to understand how the health and socioeconomic crisis brought about by the coronavirus is affecting children’s exposure to violence. Since containment measures have disrupted many data collection and research efforts, studies have had to rely on existing data or design new approaches to gathering relevant information. This article reviews the literature that has been produced on children’s exposure to violence during the pandemic to understand emerging patterns and critically appraise methodologies to help inform the design of future studies. The article concludes with recommendations for future research. The study entailed a search of working papers, technical reports, and journal articles. The search used a combination of search terms to identify relevant articles and reports published between March 1 and December 31, 2020. The sources were assessed according to scope and study design. The review identified 48 recent working papers, technical reports, and journal articles on the impact of COVID-19 on violence against children. In terms of scope and methods, the review led to three main findings: 1) Studies have focused on physical or psychological violence at home and less attention has been paid to other forms of violence against children, 2) most studies have relied on administrative records, while other data sources, such as surveys or big data, were less commonly employed, and 3) different definitions and study designs were used to gather data directly, resulting in findings that are hardly generalizable. With respect to children’s experience of violence, the review led to four main findings: 1) Studies found a decrease in police reports and referrals to child protective services, 2) mixed results were found with respect to the number of calls to police or domestic violence helplines, 3) articles showed an increase in child abuse-related injuries treated in hospitals, and 4) surveys reported an increase in family violence. This review underscores the persistent challenges affecting the availability and quality of data on violence against children, including the absence of standards for measuring this sensitive issue as well as the limited availability of baseline data. Future research on COVID-19 and violence against children should address some of the gaps identified in this review.
