Proximal and Distal Protective Factors for Dating Violence among Child Welfare Involved Adolescents

项目摘要 青春期约会暴力(ADV)，造成医疗、行为和社会后果，包括 自杀、外在问题、创伤后应激障碍、慢性身体健康状况和无家可归。令人惊讶的是， 涉及儿童福利的青少年经历ADV犯罪和受害的可能性高出200%。然而， 许多涉及儿童福利的青少年也表现出对ADV的韧性。目前的研究旨在更好地 在虐待和忽视儿童的情况下，确定防止ADV的因素。使用密集采样的 社交媒体(SM)数据与自我报告的人际关系特征评估相一致，目前 这项研究调查了涉及儿童福利的青少年中ADV的近端和远端保护因素。 应聘者：应聘者是一名临床科学家，具有发展精神病理学和 ADV。她之前的研究使用了典型的纵向模特和自我报告的人际关系特征 正常的青少年。她正在申请为期五年的K01职业发展奖，以扩大她的 她在虐待和忽视儿童方面的专业知识和支持她的培训、指导和研究。培训：特定 通过正式课程、研讨会、研讨会、会议、 应聘者将接受定向阅读、临床工作和指导经验。具体来说，她 旨在培养三个新的专业领域：(1)对人际关系的新颖和自然主义的评估 (2)在涉及儿童福利的青少年中进行虐待儿童和忽视儿童的研究；及(3) 大数据量、集约化抽样数据管理与分析。候选人在制度上得到了 罗德岛医院和布朗大学阿尔伯特医学院。指导：四大知名品牌 研究人员是这一提议的导师。每一项都带来了与 学习的目的和培训目标。Nicole Nugent博士是主要的导师，她有检查的经验 通过SM数据对创伤暴露青年中的社会互动进行密集抽样。另外三位共同导师 拥有在虐待和忽视儿童方面进行研究的专业知识，并与法院系统合作 在涉及青少年的儿童福利中开展研究(Seifer、Rizzo和Kemp博士)。此外，里佐博士也是 ADV预防和干预方面的专家。此外，黄志伟博士还被列为计算机 科学家顾问，提供通过社交数据下载和管理SM数据的指导 萃取器。研究：使用自然主义和自我报告的方法，100名儿童福利涉及青少年 (14-18岁)将从罗德岛家庭法院招募。拟议项目的目标是：(1) 了解人际关系(通过SM衡量)和 涉及儿童福利的青少年中的DV参与(2)用自然主义的自我报告补充 对人际关系的评估(即SM)以了解它们的远端(即每月的时间滞后 6个月)在虐待和忽视儿童的情况下发挥保护作用。

Project Summary Adolescence dating violence (ADV), contributes to medical, behavioral, and social consequences, including suicidality, externalizing problems, PTSD, chronic physical health conditions, and homelessness. Strikingly, child welfare involved adolescents are 200% more likely to experience ADV perpetration and victimization. Yet, many child welfare involved adolescents also display resilience against ADV. The current study aims to better identify factors that protect against ADV in the context of child abuse and neglect. Using intensive sampling of social media (SM) data in concert with self-report assessments of interpersonal characteristics, the current study examines proximal and distal protective factors for ADV among child welfare involved adolescents. Candidate: The candidate is a clinical scientist with a background in developmental psychopathology and ADV. Her prior research uses typical longitudinal modeling and self-report interpersonal characteristics among normative adolescents. She is applying for a five-year K01 Career Development Award in order to expand her expertise and support her training, mentorship, and research within child abuse and neglect. Training: Specific training overseen by the mentorship team through formal coursework, workshops, seminars, conferences, directed readings, clinical work, and mentored experiences will be received by the candidate. Specifically, she aims to foster three new areas of expertise: (1) novel and naturalistic assessments of interpersonal relationships; (2) conducting research in child abuse and neglect among child welfare involved youth; and (3) large and intensive sampling data management and analysis. The candidate is institutionally supported by Rhode Island Hospital and the Alpert Medical School of Brown University. Mentoring: Four well-established researchers serve as mentors on this proposal. Each brings complementary expertise consistent with the study’s aims and training objectives. Dr. Nicole Nugent is the primary mentor and has experience examining intensive sampling of social interactions via SM data among trauma exposed youth. Three other co-mentors have expertise in conducting research in child abuse and neglect and collaborating with court systems to conduct research among child welfare involved youth (Drs. Seifer, Rizzo, and Kemp). Further, Dr. Rizzo is also an expert in ADV prevention and intervention. In addition, Dr. Jeff Huang has been included as a computer scientist consultant, providing guidance on the download and management of SM data via a social data extractor. Research: Using both naturalistic and self-report methods, 100 child welfare involved adolescents (ages 14-18) will be recruited from the Rhode Island Family Court. The aims of the proposed project are to (1) Understand proximal (i.e., daily-level) associations between interpersonal relationships (measured via SM) and DV involvement among child welfare involved adolescents (2) Complement self-report with naturalistic assessments (i.e., SM) of interpersonal relationships to understand their distal (i.e., monthly temporal lags spanning 6 months) protective function in the context of child abuse and neglect.
