Les Pratiques Parentales Psychologiquement Violentes: Une Menace à la Santé Mentale

Publication: Canadian Journal of Community Mental Health
April 2001

Résumé

Cette recension d'écrits documente le risque que représentent les pratiques parentales psychologiquement violentes pour le bien-être des jeunes et pour leur santé mentale ultérieure, sous 3 aspects: la prévalence élevée de ce type de pratiques parentales, leurs spécificités étiologiques malgré leur concomitance avec d'autres formes de mauvais traitements et leurs impacts délétères potentiels sur les jeunes victimes. En faisant le point sur l'état actuel des connaissances en matière de violence psychologique, cette analyse identifie des moyens d'inter-vention à promouvoir dans une perspective de prévention, de dépistage et de soutien. Elle appelle toutefois à la prudence en ce qui a trait aux modes d'inter-vention plus intrusifs, comme l'intervention de protection.

Abstract

This literature review documents the risk associated with psychologically violent parental practices for the well-being and future mental health of youth, with regard to 3 aspects: the prevalence of parental practices of this kind, their etiological specificities in spite of their co-occurrence with other forms of maltreatment, and their potential detrimental impact on young victims. Summing up current knowledge about psychological violence, this analysis points out possible means of intervention in terms of prevention, screening, and support. However, it also calls for caution regarding the use of more intrusive modes of intervention, such as child protection.
