What is not known is…

Anselma, Manou; Altenburg, Teatske M.; Twisk, Jos W. R.; Wang, Xinhui; Chinapaw, Mai J. M. – Health Education & Behavior, 2023

Therefore, in the 3-year "Kids in Action" study, 9- to 12-year-old children from a lower-socioeconomic neighborhood were involved as coresearchers in the development,…

Background: As constant figures in children's lives, parents are key in protecting children from sexual abuse.
