Editorial: Social Support and Coping Strategies as Mediators of the Effects of Child Abuse and Neglect.
Jones, David P. H.
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v21 n2 p207-09 Feb 1997
This editorial discusses two studies in this journal issue that explore mediating functions of coping strategies and social support in long-term outcomes of child abuse and neglect. It is argued that these studies provide empirical evidence of interest to social workers and mental health practitioners by identifying specific factors and strategies common among those who recover from childhood traumas.
