from leaving and remaining out of abusive relationships. Such factors include economic, religious, cultural, and psychological (.e.g. fear, learned helplessness, self-esteem). Yet, there has been very limited research that examines the neurocognitive issues that influences a woman’s decision return to abusive situations, despite opportunities and resources to leave. The following study will explore possible implications of addictive behavior towards abusive situations in battered women— due to neurocognitive

Social and traditions factors in Tanzania, kept women mainly in danger with the violence directed to them, and this is because there is no gender equality between men and woman. Gender equality includes economical and social forces. And also in the family where by power belongs to a husband only, and not to both partners there for the traditional factors in Tanzania denies women and children and indirectly has supported the domestic violation
abuse in infants and young children can lead to brain dysfunction and sometimes death. Most fatality victims of abuse and neglect are under age 5. In 1991, an estimated 1,383 children died from abuse or neglect; 64 percent of these deaths, were attributed to abuse and 36 percent to neglect. A child does not need to be struck on the head to sustain brain injuries. Studies have indicated that infants who are shaken vigorously by the extremities or shoulders may sustain intracranial and intrasellar bleeding
Task 1 (P1) With examples, describe forms of abuse which may be experienced by adults. To achieve p1, produce a table that describes the different forms of abuse that adults may be subjected to. Forms of Abuse Which May Be Experienced By Adults Abuse is mistreating someone whether mentally, emotionally, sexually, financially or physically that is likely to cause death or harm to a person such as making them feel worthless, guilty, isolated or making significant loss to a victim’s property
Describe how the sociological perspectives explain social problems related to the family. The family affords its members with a social uniqueness. Offspring are born into their parents’ social class, culture and race, religious conviction, and so forth. Some kids have benefits throughout life because of the social uniqueness they obtain from their parents, while others face many hindrances because the social class or race/ethnicity into which they are born is at the bottom of the social ladder.

Introduction Every nine seconds a woman is assaulted or beaten in the United States (Domestic Violence Statistics, 2013). Women between the ages of 20-24 are at a greater risk for abuse than any other age group.” (CITE). Domestic violence is a social problem that happens every day nationwide. For example, an estimated 1.3 million women are victims of physical assault each year (Domestic Violence Facts, 2007). This estimated number is just the instances of abuse that are reported by women to police
developmental outcomes, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect (Child Welfare League of America, 2001). Mental health professionals recognize two additional problems, which include emotional abuse and secondary abuse that occurs when a child witnesses abusive behavior between the parents. Exposure to abuse can be particularly traumatic for children aged 5 years and less due to lack of coping skills and the increased vulnerability in terms of physical and emotional development (The Journal of Child and
common correlates of such violence are themselves reactions to sudden or chronic ecological instability. For example, alcoholism, depression, and anxiety may be responses to ecological stresses in the family, such as loss of employment, excessive financial debt, or divorce. Burgess and Draper suggest that violence towards one's mate or children may consequently be a direct result of ecological
refer to the immediate event that produce a behaviour or some other phenotypic trait, including genes, hormones and environmental stimuli. They refer to how such developmental or physiological mechanisms cause something to happen, but they do not explain why they happen (Thornhill R., Palmer C., 2000). Ultimate causation refers to why behaviours happen, under what evolutionary pressures of genetic selection the behaviours evolved. It is important to note that these adapted for traits or behaviours
(1991) proposes several different counter arguments against the aforementioned claims, but that will be better covered in the next answer. Instead I would like to discuss how autonomy plays into this whole matter. Staw proposes that a single person may represent the org. This was his argument for how macro behavior is actually micro behavior. This is often countered argued
