Traub (2009) discusses the reliability of Dissociative Identity Disorder identification and categorization. Many believe that the DID is a symptom after a traumatic event, he states that “… the disorder is a defensive response that results naturally from continuous and tremendous childhood trauma, particularly from physical and sexual abuse” (Traub, 2009, p. 348). He talks about different sections, addressing whether Dissociative Identity Disorders are reliable diagnosis.. In the category of childhood trauma, Traub (2009) talks about how many psychiatrists believe the cause of many of the DID cases are due to trauma when they were children, especially in those that deal with an accumulation of traumatic events. People that advocates for DID states that it is necessary for childhood trauma to be predecessor and cause of this particular disorder.
Some children have to face difficulties as they grow like physical, emotional and behaviour. In this essay I am particularly going to discuss behavioural issues in children, what is behaviour difficulty, causes of bad behaviour how it effect on a child. Disturbing behaviour in children is being discussed as a very popular topic between psychologists and writers. There are quite a few causes of disturbed behaviour mainly parents marital relationship, parents negative behaviour, lack of attention and negligence from parents, social background, poverty, age, mental health issue and biological and genetics like ADHD. The two dominant perspectives which explain the disturbed and disturbing behaviour are, The Medical Model which sees disturbed behaviour lying within the child as a disorder with an organic cause.
This is when a decision is made, a reactive decision to end the baby’s crying. This can result in the shaking of a baby. This frustration induced reaction has a grave effect on the child and will effect both the parent and baby for the rest of their lives. Shaken Baby Syndrome is the result of this action. It is a elusive and often misdiagnosed form of abuse.
Untreated symptoms can snowball and lead to the development of sometimes severe secondary problems such as social, academic and occupational difficulties, addictions, poor self-esteem, suicide attempts, self-harm (cutting or burning oneself) and the like. Secondary problems can be prevented or minimized when children's symptoms are brought under control. Problems listed can cause problems along the line monetary wise, in regards to different treatment methods ranging from treatment to tutoring. As stated earlier, that benefit will be to catch symptoms early and confer with a doctor with your concerns. Research Question What are the effects of ADHD on learning?
The onset of stuttering occurs usually during stressful situations in a child’s life. For many, certain life events are thought to "trigger" fluency difficulty. A drastic change in the family, criticism and embarrassment can start the whole journey of a person in becoming a stutterer. Those children will hold on to this speech disorder as a lifelong struggle. Perkins (1983, 1990, 1996) has discussed the possibility that “loss of control” is a key aspect in defining stuttering and that a “disfluency” becomes a stutterer when the child experiences lack of control.
Firstly, there are many factors that can exacerbate childhood trauma that will later on cause a person to engage in criminal activity. For instance, some researches tend to use the term “Adverse Child Experiences’’ also known as ACE, this includes a multitude of childhood trauma’s involving sexual and emotional abuse, child neglect, or substance abuse (Going Bonkers Magazine, Kathleen Kendall Page 44. ) When a child is faced with these many unexplained acts of trauma it usually leads to Psychological changes, which causes Harmful behaviors towards themselves or others (Kendall, Page 45). This could be due to the fact that they are always exposed to physical abuse, and they will feel the need
The Tragedy of Child Abuse A Child Called "It" is a real life story about a boy brutally beaten and starved by his mentally disturbed and alcoholic mother. Dave Pelzer was the third-born of five children (Ronald, Stan, Russell, and Kevin). His father was a firefighter and, according to Dave, his mother was originally a loving, kind, and wonderful person. This all changed when his mother began drinking and eventually became an alcoholic. Even though advocates against child abuse work diligently every day to put an end to child abuse, it is tragic because child abuse can cause physical and emotional distress along with many other factors and child abuse can lead to developmental issues and detachment from others.
Freud believed that there were two main causes of abnormality in general. One of these was childhood traumas and the idea that a bad memory from our childhood is so traumatic that it buries itself in our subconscious. This is what is believed to cause problems later on in our adult life. The second cause was the concept that our mind has not learned to rationalise our id and our superego, and that our ego is undergoing unconscious conflict which causes us anxiety, and excessive use of defence mechanisms. Defence mechanisms are powerful, unconscious influences on our behaviour which are used as coping
12/7/2013 Reni Childhood Trauma & Dissociative Identity Disorder Abnormal Psychology Fall PSYC Childhood Trauma and Dissociative Identity Disorder Dissociative identity disorder (DID), previously known as multiple personality disorder, is a severe form of dissociation; a mental process that produces a lack of connection in a person's thoughts, memories, feelings, actions, or sense of identity. DID is believed to be the effect of severe trauma suffered during childhood. It’s believed that experiencing extreme, repetitive physical, sexual, or emotional abuse causes the disassociation, and as a result, a coping mechanism develops – the individual dissociates himself from the situation or experience that is too violent,
The usual targets of this kind of violence are women that are most likely, injured. Children living in a household with IPV may not actually witness violent events but are nonetheless exposed to IPV through after-effects including the physical and / or psychological traumatic impacts on the victim. IPV exposure impacts these children and often results to negative short and long term behavioral, psychological, cognitive and social impacts on children. These children witnessing the violence sometimes get involved in the IPV by being caught in the conflict unintentionally or while stepping in to defend a parent being victimized. Children exposed to IPV are also likely to be victims of child maltreatment, as there is a high co-occurrence of both types of violence.
