Apart from helping children via the phone line, this NGO had a strong impact on the increase of public awareness of the issue. We started to train professionals, educate parents, and inform children and the media. It was the NGO Brave phone which conducted the first research into the prevalence of sexual abuse of children in Croatia in 2001. Results showed that every fourth girl and every sixth boy experienced some form of sexual abuse before the age of fourteen, which is very similar to other countries research results.

Željeli smo na temelju ovog upitnika procijeniti i rasirenost emocionalnoga zlostavljanja na uzorku djece s podrucja Zagreba. Emocionalno zlostavljanje djece u ovom istraživanju definirano je konkretnim bihevioralnim cesticama, koje ukljucuju roditeljska ponasanja poput ignoriranja, ponižavanja, ismijavanja, iskoristavanja, zanemarivanja emocionalnih potreba te prijetnji djetetu. Upitnik o emocionalnom zlostavljanju konstruiran je na osnovi prevedenog upitnika Children's Perception of Parental Verbal Agression (Solomon, Serres, 1999.) te je primijenjen na 373 ispitanika (ucenika 4. razreda osnovne skole). Na dobivenim rezultatima napravljena je diskriminativna analiza cestica te analiza glavnih komponenata. Koeficijent pouzdanosti za do...

Her mother and the girl claim that the teacher shows no understanding for the girl’s difficulties and their relationship is not improving. The girl shows signs of disharmonious development; despite her language difficulties, she shows above-average non-verbal intelligence, emotional immaturity and anxiety. She lives in an intact family with a sister (without difficulties). After a multidisciplinary assessment and two months of psychological treatment (once a week), communicating with her school’s professional service, the teacher publicly reads her essay in front of the whole class as an example of how not to write essays. Immediately after that, and one month before the end of the school year, the girl refuses to write any essays...

The girl reported no appreciable diseases. She is the only child in the family, has high intellectual capacity and never reported any socio-emotional difficulties. The case study gives an overview of the counselling work with the mother and psychological support to the child through several stages: (1) coping with the illness; (2) bodily and mood changes of the father; (3) side-effects of the father’s treatment; (4) severe health deterioration of the father; (5) father’s approaching death; (6) father’s death; (7) grief and adjustment. The girl and the mother reacted to all aforementioned stages in very different ways, thus the interventions were also focused on invoking mother’s emphatic understanding of the girl and preserving their relationship. The girl went through three st...

Nakon toga se obrazlažu teorijski modeli nasilnih roditeljskih ponasanja prema djeci te rizicni i zastitni cimbenici. U drugom dijelu se analiziraju tjelesno, emocionalno i seksualno zlostavljanje te zanemarivanje djece. U poglavlju o posebnim oblicima zlostavljanja govori se o fetalnom izlaganju alkoholu i drogama te sindromu tresenog djeteta. Nakon toga se obrazlaže izloženost djece nasilju u obitelji i manipulacija djecom pri razvodu roditelja. Posebna pozornost se posvecuje nasilju među vrsnjacima te izloženost djece nasilju u medijima. Na kraju se analizira Munchausenovom sindromu preko posrednika. U poglavlju o zastiti postupanju i prevenciji zlostavljanja govori se o zakonskoj regulativi i pravnoj zastiti djece u Republici Hrvatskoj, te etickim dilemama pri provođenju istraživanja nasi...
