父母是成功预防儿童性虐待(CSA)的关键。更好地了解家长的认知和实践的CSA是必不可少的发展和实施有效的家长参与的预防计划。因此,本文的目的是探讨中国父母如何以及为什么会以他们的方式看待和应对CSA问题。本研究采用半结构式访谈法,对北京市26名学龄前或小学学龄儿童的家长进行了访谈。结果显示,父母对CSA的定义包括四个级别的性活动,并援引了一些额外的因素。父母认为CSA风险在所有儿童和他们自己的孩子之间,男孩和女孩之间,以及贫困和非贫困儿童之间存在差异。他们坚持认为,肇事者更有可能是熟悉的人,而不是陌生人。有一些障碍,阻碍他们的CSA预防实践,特别是他们的能力或愿意讨论CSA与他们的孩子。此外,父母的看法和做法进行了分析和讨论,在中国的社会文化背景下,并与西方发达国家的比较。本研究的结果表明,在缺乏政府领导和专业干预服务的情况下,家长参与的CSA预防应在中国大陆发展,中国家长的CSA预防教育应该是这些举措的关键部分。
Parents are vital to the successful prevention of child sexual abuse (CSA). A better understanding of parents' perceptions and practice of CSA is essential for developing and implementing effective parent-involved prevention programs. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to explore how and why parents in China perceive and respond to the CSA problem in the way that they do. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a sample of 26 parents of preschool-or primary school-aged children in Beijing, who were purposely selected to be diverse in gender, age, and socioeconomic status. The results show that parents' definition of CSA included four levels of sexual activities and invoked some additional factors. Parents perceived that CSA risks differed between all children and their own children, between boys and girls, and between poor and nonpoor children. They insisted that perpetrators were more likely to be familiar rather than strangers. There were some barriers hindering their CSA preventive practice, especially their ability or willingness to discuss CSA with their children. Furthermore, parents' perceptions and practices were analyzed and discussed within a Chinese sociocultural context, and compared with those in Western developed countries. This study's findings suggest that in the absence of government leadership and professional intervention services for CSA, parent-involved CSA prevention should be developed in mainland China and that CSA prevention education for Chinese parents should be a key part of these initiatives.
