Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026

A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

Event Description

As the M&E community stretches to meet the demand for evidence, one question is whether or not to use software to analyse qualitative data generated from observations, interviews and focus group discussions. A related question is which software to use. But other equally critical questions include: how to ally methodological approaches to evaluation with the software choice, how best to work in a team environment. In my talk I would address these questions and discuss 3 popularly used qualitative software programmes from my perspective as a user: NVivo, Atlas-ti, MaxQDA. My use of each of these programmes on big data-sets has led me to assess them from a perspective of software and hardware, and I hope my insights will spare other would-be users some future angst.
Melita Vaz holds a doctoral degree from the University of Michigan Ann Arbor which empowered and diverted her career track from its origins in clinical service delivery and program management to research, monitoring and evaluation. Self-designated as a data elf with gifts for quantitative and qualitative research methods she is struggling with a Pandemic obsession to learn Python. Though based in the private sector in Mumbai city, she maintains professional ties with various universities through her training workshops for doctoral students related to research methodology and software. Her qualitative software journey has taken her for long visits to the isles of NVivo, Atlas-ti, and MaxQDA with a brief stop-over at QDA-Miner Lite. She has only taken a look at tourist brochures for Dedoose, and has plans for a trip to RQDA when travel conditions are favourable.
