Objective |
This study presents a scale to identify both continuous and discrete traumatic events happening in family, school, or between equals, below the age of 18.
Method |

Results |
The results show a high reliability of the instrument, which is divided into three sections. The first part of the test (EARLY-G) is related to traumatic events happening in different contexts. The second part (EARLY-FP) includes indicators of healthy care by the main caretakers, which is structured as a single factor. The third (EARLY-FN), includes adverse relational situations within the family. In this third section 7 factors have been identified: Emotional neglect, Overprotection, Physical abuse, Witnessing problems at home, Role reversal, High demand and Emotional abuse.
