How Intimate Partner Violence Affects Children:

Developmental Research, Case Studies, and Evidence-based Intervention

edited by Sandra Graham-Bermann & Alytia Levendosky (2011)
Washington, DC: American Psychological Association.

Using a developmental framework, this book presents up-to-date research on how exposure to IPV affects children and how clinicians can treat these children. It combines outcome research, evidence-based interventions, and case study material for four different age groups: prenatal to infancy, toddler to early childhood, school-age children, and adolescents. With its threefold focus on research, interventions, and case studies, this book is relevant for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students who work with children exposed to IPV.
