The study introduces the Child Maltreatment Pictorial Cards (CMPC) comprising 26 cards: 15 depict child maltreatment (CM) forms, and 11 cards illustrate positive situations. A total of 102 participants (age range 6–17 years) – 63 abused children and 39 non-abused controls – were recruited following ethical approval. Convergent and discriminant validities were established by using the Medical Somatic Dissociation Questionnaire and child history files. Known-group validity was achieved by comparing study variables, experiences, and memory recall disclosed through the pictorial cards. The findings revealed significant differences between the groups: abused children reported more negative experiences associated with memories and higher misperceptions of positive situations than controls.

开发和验证虐待儿童图卡工具


该研究介绍了虐待儿童图画卡 (CMPC)，包括 26 张卡片：15 张描绘了虐待儿童 (CM) 形式，11 张卡片描述了积极的情况。经过道德批准后，总共招募了 102 名参与者（年龄范围 6-17 岁）——63 名受虐待儿童和 39 名非虐待儿童。通过使用医学躯体分离问卷和儿童病史档案建立了收敛和判别效度。已知群体的有效性是通过比较通过图卡透露的研究变量、经验和记忆回忆来实现的。研究结果揭示了各组之间的显着差异：与对照组相比，受虐待的儿童报告了更多与记忆相关的负面经历以及对积极情况的更多误解。
