Almost no errors in sentence structure and word usage. Periodic incomplete sentences, problems with subject/verb agreement, or run on sentences, but not to the point of being distracting from the overall focus of the paper.

Distracting errors in sentence structure and word usage. Incomplete sentences, lack of subject/verb agreement, or run-on sentences obscure the meaning of some sentences or paragraphs.

The number of errors in grammar, usage, and sentence syntax suggests writing which is well below that expected from a graduate-level student.

USEFUL NOTES FOR:

Impact of trauma on children and or adolescents;

Introduction

It can be difficult to understand the impact that trauma has on children and adolescents. While there have been many studies conducted on this topic, some are still looking for answers. To begin with, it’s important to understand that trauma can affect anyone at any time in life.

How children and adolescents respond to trauma is influenced by the type, severity and frequency of the traumatic event(s).

The type, severity and frequency of a child’s trauma are factors that affect how he or she responds.

Type: The most common types of trauma include physical abuse (such as being hit), neglect or emotional abuse (being treated with contempt or indifference). Other types include sexual assault, domestic violence and military combat.

Severity: A severe injury may result in long-term damage because it causes intense pain and suffering for an extended period of time. When children experience repeated instances of abuse over time or when they witness others being abused in their home environment, they’re at greater risk for developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression or substance use disorders later in life due to the cumulative effects on their minds and bodies.* Frequency: Children who experience frequent traumatic events tend to develop more lasting emotional scars than those who experience fewer episodes over time—and these scars can be quite deep indeed! For example: If your child was exposed repeatedly by his father during childhood days until adulthood years later then he will likely have PTSD symptoms related

Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can occur following a single incident or multiple incidents of trauma.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can occur following a single incident or multiple incidents of trauma. A traumatic event is defined as any experience that is life threatening, terrifying and/or frightening, such as:

Physical abuse;

Sexual assault;

Military combat; or

Natural disasters like tsunamis and hurricanes.

Children and adolescents who have been traumatised are at higher risk of developing mental disorders in adolescence, particularly if they have an existing mental health problem.

A child who has been traumatised is at higher risk of developing mental disorders in adolescence, particularly if they have an existing mental health problem.

In a recent study by the University of Texas at Austin and Duke University, researchers found that children who had experienced trauma were more likely than their peers without such experiences to experience depression and anxiety as teenagers.

The link between traumatic events during childhood and adult mental health problems was strongest for girls who experienced sexual abuse before age 13 or those exposed to domestic violence before age 15; however, it occurred even among boys who had not been sexually abused or physically assaulted by peers or adults (which can happen too).

Researchers also found that children who were exposed to severe family violence before age 15 were more likely than others in the study group—even those with histories of other types of trauma—to develop serious depression in later years as young adults (ages 19-24).

Trauma can affect brain development, which is why early intervention is so important.

Trauma can affect brain development, which is why early intervention is so important. Brain development can be affected by trauma, and early intervention is necessary to help children and adolescents recover from trauma. Early intervention will also help them thrive in life.

In order to thrive, children need appropriate and effective care and protection. When this doesn’t happen because of multiple traumas, this is known as complex trauma. Complex trauma can impact every area of a child’s life.

In order for your child(ren) to thrive, you will need to develop an action plan for yourself so that you can provide the best possible care for your family member(s). You may also want help from professionals such as therapists or social workers who specialize in working with people who have experienced abuse or neglect in childhood.

Early intervention is essential to provide children with the support they need to thrive in life

Early intervention is essential to provide children with the support they need to thrive in life. Children who have been traumatised are at higher risk of developing mental disorders in adolescence, particularly if they have an existing mental health problem.

The good news is that early intervention can help prevent or reduce the severity of these disorders over time. For example:

When someone has experienced trauma, they may feel scared or angry because they don’t understand what happened and why it happened. This can make them feel confused about themselves and their feelings;

Trauma tends to cause more stress than usual so it’s important that you look after yourself by eating well and getting enough sleep;

During this period (at any age), if your child seems overwhelmed by their emotions then talk openly about how you’re feeling too so that together you can figure out what might be causing these feelings;

Conclusion

When children are exposed to trauma, their brains are at risk of developing changes that can make it more difficult for them to recover from future traumas. This is known as Complex PTSD.
