Racial and Ethnic Stereotypes and Bullying Victimization (2013, background): “In addition, previous research has clearly indicated a number of detrimental consequences associated with victimization for youth (Finkelhor, 2008; Macmillan & Hagan 2004); however, future research should examine the effects of bullying at school for racial and ethnic minority youth.”

Fourth National Incidence Study of Child Abuse and Neglect (NIS-4) (2010, background): “As Finkelhor (2008) noted, several indicators suggest that these declines are real, including parallel declines in victim self-reports and the fact that the declines occurred broadly across abuse subtypes and sources in CPS data.”
Defining and understanding complex trauma and complex traumatic stress disorders. (2009, positive): “Children, more than adults, are prone to use dissociation to cope with such overwhelming circumstances (Putnam, 2003), and it is now hypothesized that this style transforms the personality, preventing the integration of the traumatization across all aspects of the child’s and later the adult’s self.”
