Manage episode 430379741 series 2792848
The recently published groundbreaking, population-based study of child maltreatment in Australia found exposure to domestic violence is the most common form of maltreatment (39.6%). In this interview with Professor Daryl Higgins, one of the studies’ chief investigators, David and Ruth discuss the domestic violence specific results including how they intersect with other forms of maltreatments and other adverse experiences to produce health and other challenges in adults. Some of the key results discussed include:
- What was learned about childhood maltreatment, and its connection to health outcomes in adults, in this study of 8500 Australians
- How domestic violence is present in the 5 most common clusters of overlapping types of maltreatment
- How men were more likely to report smoking and cannabis use as result of childhood exposure to domestic violence
- How women were more likely to report self harm, suicide attempts and obesity as a result of childhood exposure of domestic violence
- How female and gender diverse children were more likely to experience childhood exposure to domestic violence
