| dc.description.notes | General Overview: Findings from the United States’ National Survey of Children’s Exposure of Violence are summarised in this bulletin. The Survey is sponsored by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention and supported by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention.<br/ ><br/ >Methods: The National Survey of Children’s Exposure of Violence was conduced between January and May 2008. Researchers conducted telephone interviews with 4,549 children (aged under seventeen) or, if the child was under 10, with their carer.<br/ ><br/ >Results: The research found that most children were exposed to violence. More than 60% of the children surveyed were exposed to violence within the past year, either directly or indirectly. Nearly one half were assaulted in the past year, one in four were victims of robbery, vandalism or theft and one in ten suffered some form of child abuse.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: The authors suggest that greater understanding of the impact of violence on children must be incorporated into research and policy development. In particular, effects of cumulative violence must be tracked, as well as the lasting impact of childhood violence. It is suggested that priority be given to identifying children at risk of violence and that this requires coordination across the criminal justice health and education sectors. | en |
