This project examined existing data that measured whether men who completed court-mandated group treatment for domestic violence have lower measures of non-physical violence and dependent/insecure personality traits than their still enrolled counterparts. The data review used two anonymous self-report instruments: The Non-Physical Abuse of Partner Scale (NPAPS) and The Dependency and Insecurity in Romantic Love Scale (DIRLS).

The objective of this study was to determine some of the effects of child protective service investigations on families, children and the workers, when the allegations are determined to be unfounded and no abuse and/or neglect is further suspected.

This project explored the associations between the type of coping strategies used among women who live in domestic violence shelters and their overall well-being.

Explores the beneficial effects and values that spirituality and religion present when addressing the elder population aged 60 and over. Also, examines the potential implications of integrating spirituality as a treatment model approach into direct social work practice and recommends possible changes for social work curriculum. Quantitative data was obtained through a convenience sampling to obtain a true representation of the population of residents in regions of San Bernardino County, California. Qualitative data was obtained through the use of open-ended questions that provided for greater validity, understanding and interpretation of spirituality and how external forces affect this population. Results indicate that elders 60 years and older with spiritual/religious values are better equipped to face the challenges of late life and report higher levels of satisfaction compared to elders that do not share the same ideals.

This project surveyed 21 respondents to determine whether family medicine physician assistants' medical education and training while in residency is sufficient to assess or identify domestic violence. The project found that although family medicine physician assistants do receive education and training on domestic violence, it is insufficient because victims may still go undetected and unserved.

Detta examensarbete undersöker den senaste forskningen kring barn som lever i våldsutsatt i hemmet och hur våldet påverkar deras hälsa och utveckling, samt forskning kring de insatser som utförs i det sociala arbetet med våldsutsatta barn och deras familjer. Examensarbetet har utgångspunkt i anknytningsteori. Litteraturen som behandlas är kamratgranskad och publicerad från 2015-2020 och metoden för beskrivning och kartläggning av litteraturen är scoping.Att vara utsatt för våld i hemmet kan ha mycket svåra konsekvenser för barns psykiska hälsa och kan även påverka barnets känslomässiga, sociala och kognitiva utveckling. Påföljderna kan följa barnet in i vuxenåldern med omfattande konsekvenser för individens relationer och föräldraskap. Stor del av forskningen lägger vikt vid tidiga insatser för våldsutsatta barn. Dock kan interventioner eller behandlingar senare i livet även vara av stor hjälp för dessa barn och deras familjer. / This study aims to map and summarize the latest research findings in regards to children who live in violent homes and how it affects their health and development, as well as the different types of interventions and therapy that is available for these children and their families within the field of social work. This study’s theoretical point of view, as well as the research citet, is attachment theory. The method used is scoping of the selected litteratur, with the criteria being peer reviewed research and date of publication from 2015-2020.Being a victim of domestic violence and/or child abuse can have detrimental consequences for a child’s mental and emotional health and can have an impact on the child’s emotional, social and cognitive development, with the negative consequences sometimes following the child into adulthood, affecting both romantic relationship and the individuals parentingskills and capabilities. Most of the research citet finds that early intervention is crucial, even though interventions and therapy later in life can also be of great help for these children and their families.
