• Child sexual abuse and subsequent offending and victimisation: A 45 year follow-up study (2012, background): “While there is some evidence indicating older age at abuse is associated with externalising problems or delinquency in youth (Burgess et al., 1987; Kaplow & Widom, 2007; Thornberry et al., 2001), whether these findings are specifically applicable to adult victims of CSA in terms of criminal…”
• Predictors of Growth and Distress Following Childhood Parentification: A Retrospective Exploratory Study (2008, background): “It might also be helpful for future research to consider controlling for the age at which parentification first occurs, because one would expect more deleterious consequences in a child who was parentified at age 6 than would be expected if the child was parentified at age 15 ( Kaplow and Widom 2007”
• Maternal Depression, Locus of Control, and Emotion Regulatory Strategy as Predictors of Preschoolers’ Internalizing Problems (2011, background): “This may be particularly meaningful in younger children since some data suggest that stressful life events are more deleterious for preschoolers, especially when maternal sensitivity and emotional support may be compromised by depression (e.g., Kaplow and Widom 2007; Shaw et al. 2006).”
• The Role of Early Life Stress as a Predictor for Alcohol and Drug Dependence (2010, background): “Kaplow and Widom (2007) reported that in a group of nearly 500 children with documented cases of neglect and sexual abuse, the age of onset for sexual abuse was significantly later (8.4 (SD=2.6) years) than neglect (5.9 (SD=3.3) years).”
• Childhood adversities and first onset of psychiatric disorders in a national sample of adolescents (2012, neutral): “This limitation is especially important because the associations of CAs with psychopathology may vary depending on the timing of exposure.(44,45) Fourth, the NCS-A lacks information on the frequency or severity of CAs.”
