This study used secondary data analysis to both identify and evaluate children with
complex trauma who have interacted with the child protective services system. The study
addressed a current gap in the literature by conducting secondary data analysis with this specific
population. By using the NSCAW I dataset, two groups of children, one defined as complextrauma
likely and the other as not likely as complex trauma, were established. There was a
significant difference between the average CBCL scores of externalizing behavior between the
two groups. Additionally, for the complex trauma-likely specific population, disruptions in foster
care placement had a statistically significant effect on externalizing behavior. Finally, a better
understanding of the interaction of the variables of complex trauma, number of placements, and
behavior was explored by using linear regression analysis. |
