Caregiver Psychological Maltreatment Behaviors Toward Children on TikTok.

We examined TikTok user engagement when parents post videos engaging in psychological maltreatment (PM) behaviors towards their children, using the APSAC-endorsed definition of PM. A new TikTok account was created and seeded with PM behavior videos identified previously; similar videos then appeared on the new account's "For You Page" (an algorithmic feed curated by TikTok). Researchers identified 35 creators who had posted at least one PM behavior video, resulting in their full profile being coded ( = 2684 videos) for five engagement metrics, presence of children, and presence of PM behavior.

This legacy rests upon a field of scholarly research that is similarly fraught with white supremacy.
