Understanding Emotional Neglect and Emotional Abuse: A Holistic View from Conceptualization to Intervention
Öz
This study focuses on the definitions of emotional neglect and emotional abuse experienced during early childhood, their impact on mental health, and the preventive and intervention efforts related to these phenomena. Initially, the overlapping and distinct aspects of emotional neglect and emotional abuse are examined, and conceptual explanations regarding these issues are provided. In this context, the historical development and visibility of these concepts are explored, along with an analysis of how different periods and societies have approached these phenomena. Emotional neglect and emotional abuse are discussed within the frameworks of psychodynamic theory, attachment theory, social learning theory, psychosocial development theory, and ecological theory, with an emphasis on their short- and long-term effects on individuals. Risk factors are thoroughly analyzed, particularly focusing on the mechanisms through which emotional neglect and abuse during the 0-6 age period influence mental health problems in adulthood. Furthermore, intervention programs developed in this area are reviewed, and recommendations are offered to professionals for preventing, identifying, and addressing emotional neglect and abuse effectively. Individual and group therapies aiming to increase parents' self-awareness and psychoeducation programs designed to improve parenting skills are thought to play an important role in intervening in emotional neglect and abuse by helping parents develop emotional regulation, stress management and parenting skills.
