Psychological Abuse: A Discussion Paper. This paper is a review of research on psychological abuse in interpersonal and family relationships including in settings such as long-term care residences. There is no simple definition of psychological abuse. It includes threats of harm or abandonment, humiliation, deprivation of contact, isolation and other psychologically abusive tactics and behaviours. A variety of terms are used interchangeably with psychological abuse, including emotional abuse, verbal abuse, mental cruelty, intimate terrorism and psychological aggression. Also, when the abuse occurs in a residential care setting, it is often called systemic or institutional abuse. In the past, researchers considered psychological abuse to be a consequence of other forms of abuse Garbarino , 7 , particularly physical or sexual abuse Arias and Pape , 56; Astin , 17; O’Leary , 3. Now, however, psychological abuse is understood as a separate and distinct form of abuse.
