2 Annotated Bibliography on Child Abuse Schiavone, T. (2016). Child abuse in American storytelling: masterful storytellers can make it possible to speak not only of child abuse, but of the abuse of' our children' Child abuse & neglect, 54, 78-85. Schiavone (2016) explains how fiction and other literature on child abuse personalize the experiences of these children. These works often move and encourage individuals to push for change even if they are required to change in the process. These stories show how heroic and resilient these children are. The author illustrates this by discussing a few of such fictional works. For instance, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, written by Twain, disregards the argument that a parent owns their child and can physically abuse them using Pap as a model. The article is useful because it creates an avenue to address child abuse. Wright, K. (2017). Remaking collective knowledge: An analysis of the complex and multiple effects of inquiries into historical institutional child abuse. Child Abuse & Neglect, 74, 10-22. This article takes on a broad international view, mainly focusing on Australia, the UK, and Ireland. An overview and critical analysis on inquiries into historical institutional child abuse are provided. The forms, functions, and purposes of these inquiries and key findings and recommendations are considered. The article finally looks into the evaluation of these inquiries and aspects that might have been overlooked, including credibility. The author argues that understanding the complex inquiry mechanisms is essential when evaluating inquiry outcomes. Jose, J. P., & Cherayi, S. J. (2020). Effect of parental alcohol abuse severity and child abuse and neglect on child behavioral disorders in Kerala. Child Abuse & Neglect, 107, 104608.
3 Children that live in alcoholic families are at risk of suffering child abuse, parental alcoholism as well as serious mental conditions. Most of these children depend on their alcoholic parents for support, care, and basic needs. This increases their risk of being neglected as well as being abused. Abused children are likely to have behavioral problems due to poor environments for child-rearing. The author brings this out by examining the influence of parental alcohol abuse severity, child abuse, and neglect in Kerala, India. Bifulco, A., & Schimmenti, A. (2019). Assessing child abuse: “We need to talk!” Child abuse & neglect, 98, 104236. This paper adds to the crucial debate on the measurement of child abuse and the extreme experiences that these children go through. The interview approach used in this article ensures that accurate data that could be used for further research and formulation of solutions are obtained. The author promotes the use of intensive interview measures in the assessment of childhood neglect and abuse as compared to lifetime clinical results while illustrating the analysis. The approach provides the victims of child abuse with a chance to give their stories. A better understanding of the issues revolving around child abuse and neglect is also provided. Papalia, N., Mann, E., & Ogloff, J. R. (2020). Child sexual abuse and risk of re- victimization: impact of child demographics, sexual abuse characteristics, and psychiatric disorders. Child maltreatment, 1077559520932665. The relationship between child sexual abuse and re-victimization is investigated in this article. Data from 2,759 Australian children all above 17 years of age who allegedly suffered child abuse between the years 1964 and 1995 was analyzed. Their official crime victimization histories and public mental health service records were obtained from databases up to when they were age 35. Child sexual abuse victims had a higher chance of suffering re-victimization,

4 especially the females. Among these victims, different patterns of vulnerability emerged largely depending on the type of re-victimization. This article concludes that sexually abused children are at a higher risk of re-victimization and that mental health services have a role in controlling the risk. Tsur, N. (2020). Chronic Pain Personification Following Child Abuse: The Imprinted Experience of Child Abuse in Later Chronic Pain. Journal of Interpersonal Violence , 0886260520944529. Individuals who have experienced interpersonal violence are likely to personify chronic pain such that it relates to their past abuse experiences. This article includes two studies on whether child abuse is implicated in abusive chronic pain personification in young adult female samples and among females who experienced child abuse. The two studies showed a big relation between child abuse and pain personification, which supported the theory that interpersonal violence experiences are engraved in the body experiences as is seen in abusive chronic pain personification. There is a link between the experience of the body, self, and interpersonal trauma as well. From this article, therefore, it can be concluded that child abuse increases the risk for chronic pain. Mertz, M., & Andersen, S. H. (2017). The hidden cost of foster-care: New evidence on the inter-generational transmission of foster-care experiences. British Journal of Social Work , 47 (5), 1377-1393. Past abuse experiences increase the chances of future abuse. History of child abuse, being exposed to violence by an intimate partner, and being distressed increase the chances of individuals perpetrating child abuse. Parents who have gone through any of these past experiences are likely to abuse their children in the future, according to this article. A study was
5 carried out on samples of women in high risk who resided in domestic violence shelters. These women were allowed to express their experiences in these areas. A hierarchical regression model was used to predict their potential of abusing their children while considering the risk factors involved. True to the predictions, women diagnosed with PTSD were more likely to abuse their children in the future. The tests further showed that maternal history of childhood sexual abuse and the women’s potential for abusing their children was heightened by intimate partner violence-related PTSD symptoms. These vulnerable families, therefore, require interventions from relevant bodies for assistance.
