Abstract

PATIAS, Naiana Dapieve; BOSSI, Tatiele Jacques  and  DELL'AGLIO, Débora Dalbosco. Repercussions of the exposure to marital violence on emotional characteristics of children: a systematic review of the literature. Temas psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.22, n.4, pp.901-915. ISSN 1413-389X.  https://doi.org/10.9788/TP2014.4-17.

This study aimed to review scientific production about the effects of direct and indirect exposure to marital violence on emotional characteristics of children aged 0-12 years (2002-2014). Based on a combination of descriptors on the subject, 14 empirical papers published in the last 12 years, one national and 13 international indexed in different databases were selected. The results suggest a variety of effects related to the exposure to violence on development of children in short, medium and long term, especially concerning externalizing and internalizing behavior problems that were mostly accessed by the report of the mother and/or the child himself. Regarding methodological aspects of the articles included in the final selection, all of them are quantitative and most of them are cross-sectional. The need for additional research on this theme, mainly in Brazil, is also discussed. The limitations of the investigated studies are pointed out and new researches on this subject are suggested in order to give more visibility to this phenomenon.

Keywords : Marital violence; childhood; emotional characteristics; sistematic review.
