O abuso sexual infantil (ASI) é um fator de risco para o surgimento de dificuldades emocionais. Diante disso, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar o afeto positivo e negativo e as estratégias de regulação emocional em crianças de 8 a 12 anos vítimas de abuso sexual (G-ASI) e seus pares sem histórico de abuso (G-Não-ASI). Das 26 crianças participantes, 12 vivenciaram pelo menos um episódio de abuso sexual ao longo da vida, enquanto as outras 14 não foram vitimizadas. Foram utilizados os instrumentos Questionário Sociodemográfico, Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire, Teste de Compreensão das Emoções e Escala de Afeto Positivo e Negativo. Os resultados demonstraram que a média de afeto negativo das crianças vítimas de abuso sexual foi maior do que a dos participantes do outro grupo, sendo vergonha, raiva, nervosismo e tristeza os afetos mais relatados. Em relação à regulação emocional, as crianças pertencentes ao G-ASI empregaram mais frequentemente estratégias regulatórias consideradas inadequadas para a faixa etária quando comparadas ao G-Não-ASI.  Os resultados sugerem que a exposição ao ASI pode contribuir em diferenças nas respostas emocionais manifestadas pelas crianças. O conhecimento destes possíveis impactos é fundamental para o desenvolvimento de intervenções clínicas alinhadas às demandas das vítimas e baseadas em evidências.

This quantitative-based research determined whether the routine activity theory influences cyber victimization. To measure the dimensions of the theory, defined as exposure to a motivated offender, suitable online target, and absence of a capable guardian, a valid and reliable questionnaire was used. The cyber victimization questionnaire developed by Álvarez-García, Dobarro, and Núñez was applied to 1,285 students selected at random from schools in Colombia. Findings: 46% are identified as exposed to a motivated offender, 37.5% are suitable online targets, and 29.8% have no capable guardians. The interdependence of these three elements revealed that 3.9% of students are at risk due to their routine activities, which had a significant influence on cyber victimization. It is proposed that these findings should be considered in the design of communicative and educational policies aimed at a responsible use of technologies.

The present study sought to examine features of sexual abuse cases among a U.S. nationally representative sample of 13,052 children and adolescents, ages 0–17 years. The National Survey of Children’s Exposure to Violence was collected in three different years (2008, 2011, and 2014) via telephone interviews. Information about sexual abuse and assault was obtained from youth themselves (ages 10–17) or caregivers (for children ages 0–9) using the Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire. Results indicate most offenses are at the hands of other juveniles (76.7% for males and 70.1% for females), primarily acquaintances, and occurring more frequently for adolescents aged 14–17. Whereas girls are mostly abused by males (88.4%), boys are abused by both males (45.6%) and females (54.4%). In 15% of cases, penetration is part of the abuse. Victims report being very afraid in 37.5% of episodes but not at all afraid in 19.8%. Among 10- to 17-year-olds, 66.3% of episodes are not reported to parents or any adult. Police reports occur for 19.1% of all cases. The results in the present study indicate that children and youth are exposed to sexual abuse and assault in varied ways, which require moving beyond conventional stereotypes of the problem.

La violence chez les enfants et les adolescents est un sujet hautement préoccupant, notamment en raison des conséquences physiques et psychologiques qui y sont associées. La présente étude s’intéresse à la violence communautaire et vise à combler les lacunes des études antérieures portant sur ce phénomène. À partir d’une enquête populationnelle, elle a pour but de fournir un portrait statistique de la violence communautaire vécue par les enfants et les adolescents québécois âgés de 6 à 17 ans, tout en contribuant aux efforts d’opérationnalisation et de mesure de ce type de victimisation. Plus spécifiquement, cette étude explore la structure factorielle et la cohérence interne d’une mesure de violence communautaire dérivée du Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire (JVQ) (Hamby & Finkelhor, 2004), afin de mieux comprendre la structure sous-jacente aux variables de violence communautaire identifiées. Elle permet également de documenter la prévalence annuelle de diverses manifestations de violence communautaire selon l’âge et le genre des victimes.

The purpose of the present study was threefold. First, we tried to investigate whether the quality of attachment with parents and peers predicts bullying and victimization. Second, we also attempted a moderation analysis in order to examine whether the relationship between quality of attachments and bullying is moderated by the child’s gender. Finally, we explored whether there are significant differences in the quality of attachment between children identified as bullies, victims, bully/victims, and uninvolved. The participants were 303 fifth and sixth grade children with a mean age of 11.06 years that completed the Revised Bullying and Victimization Questionnaire and the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment. The results showed that poor quality of attachment with parents and peers predicts bullying and victimization. Moderation analysis revealed that the link between quality of attachment and bullying and victimization is significantly stronger for girls. Also, as hypothesized, bullies and bully/victims manifest the worst quality of attachment with parents and peers. The results are discussed with the framework of attachment and aggression theory, exploring the pathways that explain the association between poor attachment and externalizing problems during late childhood.
