In this Papers Podcast, Dr. Johnny Felt and Dr. Chad Shenk discuss their co-authored JCPP paper ‘Contamination bias in the estimation of child maltreatment causal effects on adolescent internalizing and externalizing behavior problems’ (https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.13990).



There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.



Discussion points include:






  • Definition of what is meant by the term ‘maltreatment’.

  • What is contamination and why is contamination an issue in the study of child maltreatment?

  • Challenges and limitations of the study.

  • How contamination has been traditionally addressed in child maltreatment studies and how this study has tried to do things differently.

  • The implications of the findings.

  • How contamination in child maltreatment research should be addressed in future research.


In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
