Last month, Wenxing Wei and Sarah Balser, two doctoral students at the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Sciences, were recognized for their systematic review paper, “A Systematic Review: Risk and Protective Factors of Elder Abuse for Community-Dwelling Racial Minorities.”
Originally written for a fall course with Megan Holmes, co-director of the Mandel School’s Center on Trauma and Adversity, the study was recently published in Trauma, Violence and Abuse, a peer-reviewed academic journal that acknowledges family violence, sexual abuse and other traumas and physical, substance and other forms of abuse.
