The objective of this review is to bring professionals closer to the studies that demonstrate the frequency of this phenomenon, its relationship with the presence of adverse effects on development, and the most plausible and appropriate way to measure it in order to identify those minors who require careful intervention and protection, given their extreme vulnerability. |
