spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/3813 Family resilience in response to extrafamilial child sexual abuse Robertson, Monica Becker, Lily Clinical Social Work Includes bibliographical references (leaves 122-126). This qualitative study explores family resilience in response to extrafamilial child sexual abuse. Family resilience refers to the adaptive pathway along which a family journeys in response to a significant stressor. The theory on family resilience proposes that protective family factors and processes serve to mediate the impact of trauma on a family. A gap was found in the literature in the area of family resilience relating to child sexual abuse and theoretical research conducted as part of this study aims to contribute to this area. The research study adopts a strengths perspective which views families as challenged rather than dysfunctional. 2014-07-30T03:54:47Z 2014-07-30T03:54:47Z 2005 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/3813 eng application/pdf Department of Social Development Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
