In Bad Hands: Dating Violence in Adolescentsrisat528
The document discusses intimate partner violence (IPV) among adolescents ages 14-19 in the United States. It provides background on IPV prevalence and health risks for victims. The author developed a conceptual model of factors influencing physical IPV among adolescents, including individual characteristics, social contexts, family dynamics, and psychosocial and behavioral factors. The document also reviews literature on school-based interventions for IPV and violence prevention. Most interventions show small or temporary effects, and achieving sustained behavior change may require new strategies addressing multiple risk factors simultaneously.
The document discusses how negative childhood experiences like abuse, neglect, and exposure to domestic violence can increase criminal behavior later in life if not addressed early on through intervention. Most criminals come from broken homes or experienced abuse as children. Witnessing domestic violence as a child can harm psychosocial development and increase likelihood of continuing the abusive behavior. Early intervention programs that promote resilience can help deter children from joining gangs and using drugs, which often lead to criminal behavior.
This document discusses a research study on the psychology of college students regarding violent crimes on college campuses. The study aims to determine the psychological mindset of students about safety and their development of coping strategies when exposed to violence. The research finds that exposure to violence is associated with psychological trauma in students.

The conclusion is that developing coping skills after exposure can decrease stress and trauma symptoms, improving mental health.
The document discusses the roles of parents and teachers in preventing drug abuse. It notes that children progress from an intelligent, social pre-addiction stage to using drugs due to neglect of behavioral changes and risk factors like peer pressure. Parents and teachers can prevent drug abuse through open communication, involvement, clear rules, leading by positive example, helping children choose friends wisely, talking to children about drugs early and often, and establishing rules for parties.
This document summarizes substance abuse prevention. It discusses substance use on a continuum from social to dependent use. Prevention aims to foster healthy behaviors and prevent issues. Risk factors for substance abuse include genetics, mental health issues, and social influences; protective factors enhance resilience. The document provides an overview of prevention goals and strategies at various levels, from individual to community. Resources for prevention programs are also listed.

This document discusses fluorescent angiography (FFA). It provides information on:
1. How fluorescent dyes like sodium fluorescein work by absorbing radiant energy and emitting light energy during fluorescence.
2. The uses and indications of FFA in evaluating retinal and choroidal diseases. It is used to assess vascular integrity and the blood-ocular barriers.
3. The phases seen during a normal FFA including the choroidal, arterial, arteriovenous, venous, and late phases.
4. Common abnormalities seen on FFA including leakage, pooling, staining, hyperfluorescence, hypofluorescence, and filling defects. These provide information on disease diagnosis and monitoring.
This document provides information about fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), including how it works, the clinical use of fluorescent dyes like fluorescein and indocyanine green, the procedure for FFA, and how to interpret the results. FFA involves injecting a fluorescent dye intravenously and then taking photographs of the retina as the dye circulates through the blood vessels. This allows visualization of the retinal and choroidal vasculature and detection of any abnormalities. The document describes the optical principles, angiographic phases, abnormal findings seen on FFA like hyperfluorescence and hypofluorescence, and limitations of the technique.
The document provides information on domestic violence including definitions, prevalence, causes, effects, and interventions. It defines domestic violence and family violence under Texas law. It notes that around 1 in 3 women worldwide experience domestic violence in their lifetime. Risk factors include substance abuse, witnessing domestic violence as a child, and separation from an abusive partner. Domestic violence has serious negative effects on victims and children such as physical and psychological harm. Interventions discussed include protective orders, battered women's shelters, and perpetrator treatment programs.
1) Violence against women is prevalent across cultures and socioeconomic groups, with 1 in 4 women experiencing violence and intimate partner violence being the primary cause of physical harm against women.
2) Women often stay in abusive relationships due to love, financial dependence, or lack of support systems. Childhood abuse increases risk of abuse as an adult.
3) In addition to physical and sexual abuse, women face psychological abuse, harassment, murder by partners, and social consequences like loss of community. Preventing future abuse requires education and legal protections, as well as support for victims.
Foster care youth resource sheet may 2012LuiFer Tirado
Foster youth are at an increased risk of suicidal behaviors compared to other youth. Risk factors for foster youth include trauma, abuse, neglect, mental illness, substance abuse and family dysfunction. Warning signs of imminent suicide risk include threats or talk of self-harm, seeking access to lethal means, depression, anxiety and feelings of hopelessness. If a youth expresses suicidal thoughts or exhibits warning signs, caregivers should take them seriously, ask directly about suicidal plans, stay with the youth, remove lethal means and contact a mental health professional for help.
Violence is a widespread public health issue that affects people of all ages directly and indirectly. It occurs in various forms including interpersonal violence like domestic abuse and sexual assault. Community violence such as gang violence, hate crimes and terrorism also have profound impacts. Risk factors include poverty, substance abuse, media influence and access to firearms. While the causes are complex, addressing social determinants and advocating for policies to curb different types of violence can help promote public safety and well-being.

2. Incidence rates of partner violence are high, with over 2 million victims in the US annually and millions of children witnessing or living with violence. Emerging approaches to address partner violence began in the 1970s.
3. There are many psychosocial and cultural factors that influence partner violence, as well as myths and realities surrounding victims. Leaving an abusive relationship can be dangerous for the victim. Intervention strategies focus on assessment, support, safety planning, and counseling.

This document proposes a teen dating violence prevention program for Portland Public Schools. It begins by outlining the significant scope of intimate partner violence as a public health problem in the US and Oregon, noting that teens aged 18-24 are most at risk. A needs assessment of secondary data from surveys and agencies, and proposed primary data collection from schools via observations and surveys, is meant to identify the highest risk populations and schools. The document then describes adapting an evidence-based intervention called "Shifting Boundaries" for implementation in schools. It includes a mission/goals, implementation timeline, and evaluation plan utilizing a pre-test post-test design to measure changes in student beliefs, attitudes, knowledge and behaviors regarding healthy relationships. The goal is

2. Definitions
Domestic abuse is any incident of
threatening behaviour, violence or abuse
between adults who are or have been
intimate partners or family members
regardless of gender or sexuality
Domestic violence is usually characterised
by a pattern of coercive control
Self-defence according to UK law allows
individuals to use what is reasonable force
and proportionate to imminent threat; there
must also be no reasonable alternative
3. Stats to Think About
1 in 3 women abused during lifetime/1 in 5 men
90% children living in a violent home witness abuse
Up to 50% of children where there is DV are also directly
abused
Up to 75% of children subject to a child protection plan
experience DV
Up to 70% of police calls due to DV involve alcohol and/or
drugs
2012 Crime Survey: 683K men experienced 1 or more incidents
of partner abuse compared to 938K women
Costs in Brighton and Hove – around £3 million each year
4. Assessing Risk and Need
Is she aggressor or victim or both?
Is her violence reactive/self-defence?
Is it bi-directional? (who starts, who
ends, who is injured?)
Patterns of control? Levels of fear?
Sexual dynamics of relationship(s)
Use of alcohol/substances
History of abuse – aggressor/victim?
Childhood abuse?
Cultural factors
5. Female Perpetrator Issues
Pattern of coercion/control not just anger
Likely to minimise violence, blame others
May also be victim in the relationship – careful
screening
Generally diff power/control issues – gender
difference (eg diff use of physical force, financial)
Past abuse, both physical and sexual to be
considered – lingering impact, PTSD
Impact of substances – often high correlation for
women who use violence
Impact as primary carer
Mental health needs
6. Increased Risk
Escalation of violence – more frequent,
police call outs
Increased use of alcohol and
substances/misuse of medication
Mental health needs increased
Use of weapons – not just knives/guns!
Separation
High levels of jealousy –
stalking/monitoring/tracking/texting/FB
Child contact when separated
7. Impact on Partner
Physical injury
Fear for self and children
Feeling trapped
Mental health - depression, anxiety
Shame
Unlikely to report - not being believed
Minimise violence
Homelessness
8. At Risk Group
All at risk at any given time
Vulnerable groups:
16-24 – women’s aggression on the
rise?
excluded groups (BMER,LGBT,disabled)
poverty - unemployed
lone parents
alcohol/substance misuse
early childhood DV exposure
9. Treatment Goals
Reduction of violence and abuse
Substance use managed
Mental health needs assessed
Safety planning/protective behaviours
May need MARAC referral - DASH
Increased parenting capacity
Empathy building
Assertiveness/self-esteem building
Healthy calming strategies
Group-work preferable or 1-1
10. How to Do the Work
Interventions (CBT, SF) to contain her use of force or
violence having assessed the risks (levels of violence, with
vulnerability)
Even if violence is reactive/self-defence, not a safety
strategy
Accountability without shaming - respect
Monitor child protection issues/positive mothering
Integrated treatment planning - consider the role/impact of
alcohol and substance misuse, mental health needs
Counselling relationship supportive but not
collusive/modelling healthy boundaries (confidentiality with
transparency)
Co-ordination and sequencing with other agencies – talk to
one another!
Unresolved abuse issues generally need longer term work
11. Couple Work
Couple work contra-indicated unless
violence has stopped
Alcohol/substance use contained
Risks of undertaking the work need to
be carefully assessed
Individual support alongside violence
Impact on family/children
Safety planning and monitoring
