These two special issues of "Applied Developmental Science" include
eight major studies of the impacts of the September 11th, 2001,
terrorist attacks on children, youth, and their parents. Issue 1
includes a report of the impact of September 11th on New York City
youth in comparison with that of everyday violence, as well as
three studies which demonstrate the impact of the attacks on the
metal health and coping strategies of adolescents throughout the
country, despite being physically distant from the event.
Issue 2 includes a study of separation anxiety in school age
children in New York City following the attacks, the results from
two national surveys of parents' roles in helping children respond
to or process the attacks, and a study of the impact of such a
"distant trauma" on rural youth.
This Brief reviews the past, present, and future use of school
corporal punishment in the United States, a practice that remains
legal in 19 states as it is constitutionally permitted according to
the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result of school corporal punishment,
nearly 200,000 children are paddled in schools each year. Most
Americans are unaware of this fact or the physical injuries
sustained by countless school children who are hit with objects by
school personnel in the name of discipline. Therefore, Corporal
Punishment in U.S. Public Schools begins by summarizing the legal
basis for school corporal punishment and trends in Americans'
attitudes about it. It then presents trends in the use of school
corporal punishment in the United States over time to establish its
past and current prevalence. It then discusses what is known about
the effects of school corporal punishment on children, though with
so little research on this topic, much of the relevant literature
is focused on parents' use of corporal punishment with their
children. It also provides results from a policy analysis that
examines the effect of state-level school corporal punishment bans
on trends in juvenile crime. It concludes by discussing potential
legal, policy, and advocacy avenues for abolition of school
corporal punishment at the state and federal levels as well as
summarizing how school corporal punishment is being used and what
its potential implications are for thousands of individual students
and for the society at large. As school corporal punishment becomes
more and more regulated at the state level, Corporal Punishment in
U.S. Public Schools serves an essential guide for policymakers and
advocates across the country as well as for researchers,
scientist-practitioners, and graduate students.
This brief examines the U.S. foster care system and seeks to
explain why the foster care system functions as it does and how it
can be improved to serve the best interest of children. It defines
and evaluates key challenges that undermine child safety and
well-being in the current foster care system. Chapters highlight
the competing values and priorities of the system as well as the
pros and cons for the use of foster care. In addition, chapters
assess whether the performance objectives in which states are
evaluated by the federal government are sufficient to achieve
positive health and well-being outcomes for children who experience
foster care. Finally, it offers recommendations for improving the
system and maximizing positive outcomes. Topics featured in this
brief include: Legal aspects of removal and placement of children
in foster care. The effectiveness of prior efforts to reform foster
care. The regulation and quality of foster homes. Support for youth
aging out of the foster care system. Racial and ethnic disparities
in the foster care system. Foster Care and the Best Interests of
the Child is a must-have resource for policy makers and related
professionals, graduate students, and researchers in child and
school psychology, family studies, public health, social work,
law/criminal justice, and sociology.
