Multiple Victimization of Children

Abstract

The authors identify three areas of empirical and clinical scholarship that need further attention in the area of multiple victimization of children. These include assessment of multiple victimization, assessment of additional sources of adversity in the child's environment, and the creation and use of developmentally appropriate, theoretically driven measures of child outcome. This is the last article in an edited book on multiple victimization of children that focuses on research and treatment issues from a developmental perspective.
