目的本研究探讨了 2007 年 12 月有争议的总统选举后肯尼亚基苏木爆发的广泛暴力事件后，父母和儿童遭受短期政治暴力的情况以及育儿暴力与儿童适应之间的关系。方法 100 名罗氏儿童（平均年龄 = 8.46 岁，61% 为女性）的母亲报告了她们在时间 1、争议选举后约 4 个月和时间 2 时使用育儿暴力的情况（n= 95) 和 3 (n= 95)，分别是大约 12 个月和 24 个月后。在时间 2，母亲们报告了针对她们的选举后暴力行为以及她们的孩子遭受选举后暴力的情况。儿童在时间 1、2 和 3 报告了自己的外化行为。结果儿童接触选举后暴力的情况与时间 2 的外化行为有关，时间 1 的育儿暴力行为预测了儿童在时间 2 的外化行为。暴露于选举后暴力与时间 3 的育儿暴力或儿童的外化行为均没有直接关系，尽管儿童在时间 2 的外化行为预测了时间 3 的更多育儿暴力行为。结论这些结果支持早期的工作，将儿童抚养暴力和儿童接触政治暴力与儿童外化行为的增加联系起来，但在短期政治暴力的研究不足的领域研究了这些联系。尽管突然而严重的政治暴力可能会在几周或几个月内显着平息，但有必要更多地关注对养育和儿童适应的长期影响。（PsycINFO 数据库记录 (c) 2019 APA，保留所有权利）
ObjectiveThis study examines parents’ and children’s exposure to short-term political violence and the relation between childrearing violence and child adjustment after widespread violence that erupted in Kisumu, Kenya after the disputed presidential election in December 2007.MethodMothers of 100 Luo children (mean age= 8.46 years, 61% female) reported on their own use of childrearing violence at Time 1, approximately 4 months after the disputed election, and again at Times 2 (n= 95) and 3 (n= 95), approximately 12 and 24 months later, respectively. At Time 2, mothers reported about post-election violence directed at them and about their children’s exposure to post-election violence. Children reported about their own externalizing behaviors at Times 1, 2, and 3.ResultsChildren’s exposure to post-election violence was related to Time 2 externalizing behavior, and childrearing violence at Time 1 predicted child externalizing behavior at Time 2. Exposure to post-election violence was not directly related to either childrearing violence or children’s externalizing behavior by Time 3, although children’s externalizing at Time 2 predicted more childrearing violence at Time 3.ConclusionThese results support earlier work that links childrearing violence and children’s exposure to political violence with increases in child externalizing behavior, but examined these links in the understudied area of short-term political violence. Even though sudden and severe political violence may subside significantly in weeks or months, increased attention to long-term effects on parenting and child adjustment is warranted.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
