Rezumat

Acest articol examinează consecințele violenței domestice asupra vieții și educației copiilor, adolescenților și tinerilor, evidențiind modurile în care aceștia pot beneficia de sprijin în cadrul sistemului educațional (Lloyd, 2018). Prin aplicarea unei abordări sistematice de cercetare și revizuire, am analizat sintetic studii care au evaluat precis impactul cantitativ și calitativ al expunerii la violența familială asupra performanțelor academice ale acestor grupuri de vârstă. Rezultatele subliniază necesitatea implementării soluțiilor educaționale și a sprijinului pentru a-i ajuta să depășească traumele și să se dezvolte armonios. Sintetizând studiile recente, am explorat modul în care expunerea la violența familială afectează adaptarea și performanțele academice ale respondenților. Cele nouă studii examinate s-au concentrat pe populația copiilor, adolescenților și tinerilor pentru a evalua relația dintre expunerea la violența familială și performanțele academice (Supol, 2021). În aceste studii de cercetare, expunerea la violența familială a fost tratată ca o variabilă independentă, în timp ce succesul academic a fost considerat o variabilă dependentă. Concluziile evidențiază legătura semnificativă dintre violența familială și scăderea rezultatelor academice, subliniind consecințele negative asupra concentrării și învățării (da Silva Alves, 2021). În plus, sunt abordate modurile în care un climat familial marcat de violență influențează implicarea în activitățile școlare, impactându-le starea emoțională. Prin analiza comprehensivă a acestui subiect, revizuirea oferă o înțelegere mai detaliată a mecanismelor prin care violența familială poate influența traiectoria academică a tinerilor și sugerează direcții posibile pentru intervenții și sprijin.

Short biography of the author: I graduated in 2021 from "Al. I. Cuza" University, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, specializing in Psychology. In the same year, I obtained the certificate of a clinical psychologist in supervision, working professionally both in my practice (CIP) and at the Harmanais Center for Complementary Therapies. This year, I completed a master's degree in Clinical Assessment, Counseling, and Couple and Family Psychotherapy, at the same university/faculty. Currently, I am enrolled in basic training courses in cognitive-behavioral therapy. I am also a Neurofeedback therapist. At the same time, I have been a teacher of Romanian language and literature at "Ion Neculce" Secondary School, Iași, since 2000, starting my teaching career in 1997. My main areas of interest are child psychology, adolescent and youth psychology, developing methodologies for intervention in the categories mentioned above, and interdisciplinary approaches (neurosciences, psychosomatic medicine). Moreover, both my bachelor's and master's theses focus on psychological aspects of the age categories mentioned above ("Psychosocial Factors of Anxiety in Examination Situations in Students", "The Role of the Family Environment in the Development of Motivation and Academic Success").
