significant benefits were observed
for a number of

Researchers,
for example, recently subjected parent education programs that use video playback of parent -

Several have included families involved with
child maltreatment or at high risk of maltreatment, but hardly any have included families who were the subject of
child abuse and neglect reports.41 The Incredible Years (IY) is considered to be one of the most effective interventions

problems.42 Jamila Reid, Carolyn Webster - Stratton, and Nazli Baydar examined IY, randomly assigning
children to the IY program or to a control group that received usual Head Start services.43 Children with significant conduct problems and children of mothers whose parenting was highly critical — arguably those dyads most at risk for child maltreatment — benefited most

A confluence of research has identified executive functioning deficits as a common characteristic of individuals with FASD.9 15 — 27 Damage to neurological structures, including the prefrontal regions of the brain, is a
significant hypothesised cause
for these deficits.28 29 Executive functions are defined as a set of cognitive processes responsible
for orchestrating purposeful, goal - directed behaviour.15 30 31 These processes are responsible
for the ability to plan, organise, attend,
problem solve and inhibit responses.31 It is also suggested that the ability to self - regulate emotional responses and behavioural actions is interrelated with the construct of executive functioning.17 28 32 Deficits in executive functioning and self - regulation can lead to learning and behavioural
problems that impact a
child's educational outcomes as they struggle to cope with the complex demands of school life.16 20
Overall, the authors concluded that the program did little to prevent

children.7 Similar to adults with a history of physical abuse, adults with a history of neglect are at increased risk
for violent criminal behaviour.13
Subsequent speeches will address issues ranging from the very serious
problem of a lack of engagement with Indigenous peoples in policy making and

for Indigenous
children.
As a result, they tend to spend more time onlooking (watching other
children without joining) and hovering on the edge of social groups.8, 11 There is some evidence to suggest that young depressive
children also experience social impairment.12
For example,
children who display greater depressive symptoms are more likely to be rejected by peers.10 Moreover, deficits in social skills (e.g., social participation, leadership) and peer victimization predict depressive symptoms in childhood.13, 14 There is also substantial longitudinal evidence linking social withdrawal in childhood with the later development of more
significant internalizing
problems.15, 16,17
For example, Katz and colleagues18 followed over 700
children from early childhood to young adulthood and described a pathway linking social withdrawal at age 5 years — to social difficulties with peers at age 15 years — to diagnoses of depression at age 20 years.
