Child Psychological Maltreatment —
Finally a Line in the Sand to Guide Responsible and Effective Societal Intervention
Child psychological maltreatment (PM), also known as emotional abuse and neglect, mental violence, and emotional maltreatment, is the least recognized and addressed of the four major forms of child maltreatment though being more prevalent and of equal or greater destructiveness than the others. This webinar will provide the history of PM, an overview of the current state of knowledge, and a vision for advancing progress in addressing this form of child maltreatment. Case studies will be presented to illustrate the concept.
