A. Introduction Day 1 Unintentional injury can be defined as “any injury that is not caused
on purpose or with intention to harm”. It is a broad category that includes
injuries from causes such as motor vehicle collisions, falls, poisoning, drowning,
suffocations and work-related or sports-related injuries.
Intentional injuries are injuries resulting from violence. It can be
divided into two: self-inflicted, when a person harms himself/herself on
purpose and assault, when person/persons harm another on purpose.
Suicide and parasuicide are intentional injuries that are self-inflicted, while
assault has four classifications: (1) those that were committed within the
family; (2) those that were committed by peers; (3) those that were
committed by other groups; and (4) those that were committed by the
family, peers or other groups. Within the family, domestic violence may
happen. Domestic violence happens when one or more members of the
family harms or abuses another family member. Peers in school or in the
community may commit bullying, stalking, and extortion. Other groups may
commit gang and youth violence, illegal fraternity-related violence,
kidnapping and abduction, and different acts of terror. Sexual victimization
and other forms of abuse and harassment may be committed by the family,
peers or other people. This includes verbal abuse, incest, molestation or rape.
Bullying is an unwanted, aggressive behavior. The behavior is repeated, or
can be repeated, over time. Both kids who are bullied and who bully others
may have serious, lasting problems.
Stalking is a pattern of behavior that makes you feel afraid, nervous,
harassed, or in danger. It is when someone repeatedly contacts you, follows
you, sends you things, and talks to you, even when you don’t want them to.
Extortion is the act of using force or threats to force people to hand over their
money or properties, on favors.
A gang is defined as a relatively tough, mostly street-based group of young
people who regard themselves and may be seen by
others as a group that engages in a range of criminal
activity and violence.
A fraternity is a group of people with similar backgrounds, occupations,
interests, or tastes. In campuses and universities, fraternities are represented
Greek letters. The youth may think of several benefits in joining a fraternity.
They may see it as a gain in power and protection, as fraternities have a
reputation for being a powerful group.
On the other hand, abduction is the use of deceit or force in order to take a
person or a child away from their home or relatives. In abduction, the victim
usually knows or has some sort of relation with the abductor.
Acts of terror, or terrorism, is the use of violence for political goals and
putting the public or a great number of people in fear. The purpose of these
terrorist groups is to produce terror in their victims through the use of violence,
fear and pressure.
Verbal abuse is a form of cruelty that involves the use of words.
Incest is sexual contact between persons who are so closely related that a
marriage between them is considered illegal (e.g., parents and children,
uncles/aunts and nieces/nephews, etc.). Usually, incest takes the form of an
older family member having sexual relations or sexually abusing a child or an
adolescent.
Molestation is the sexual abuse of a person (whether a child or adult) by an
adult for sexual pleasure or for profit.
