Navigating uncharted waters: Complex trauma-related relational disruptions among young mothers formerly in residential care.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract: Young mothers from out-of-home care are at risk of complex trauma. Complex trauma manifests through severe and persistent disruptions of functioning, especially in the context of relationships. As negotiating significant and trusting relationships is an essential aspect both of motherhood and complex trauma recovery, it is important to better understand the young mothers’ relational functioning in light of complex trauma. The current study seeks to describe the complex trauma-related relational disruptions among 17 young mothers (Mage = 24.2) who experienced maltreatment and were placed in residential care during adolescence. The young mothers had an average of 1.6 children (Mage = 3.9), with whom they had regular contact. Semistructured interviews documenting complex trauma, its consequences, and motherhood were conducted. A thematic analysis was used to create main themes and subthemes describing their relational disruptions. Analysis resulted in two main themes: (a) Relationships in Peril and (b) Relationships as Lifebuoys, representing two poles of a continuum of relational disruptions. Young mothers adopt a swaying motion between withdrawing from abusive or conflictual relationships and striving to build significant relationships, which shape their experience of motherhood. The results suggest that young mothers’ swaying motion can be attempts toward trauma recovery and that professional services should recognize young mothers’ needs for connection and support their efforts to achieve better relational functioning.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
