Abstract:
This review deals with bibliography on Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSbP). The name of this disorder was introduced by English psychiatrist Roy Meadow who pointed to diagnostic difficulties as well as to serious medical and legal connotations of MSbP. MSbP was classified in DSM-IV among criteria sets provided for further study as "factitious disorder by proxy", while in ICD-10, though not explicitly cited, MSbP might be classified as "factitious disorders" F68.1. MSbP is a special form of abuse where the perpetrator induces somatic or mental symptoms of illness in the victim under his/her care and then persistently presents the victims for medical examinations and care. The victim is usually a preschool child and the perpetrator is the child's mother. Motivation for such pathological behavior of perpetrator is considered to be unconscious need to assume sick role by proxy while external incentives such as economic gain are absent. Conceptualization of MSbP development is still in the domain of psychodynamic speculation, its course is chronic and the prognosis is poor considering lack of consistent, efficient and specific treatment. The authors also present the case report of thirty-three year-old mother who had been abusing her nine year-old son both emotionally and physically over the last several years forcing him to, together with her, report to the police, medical and educational institutions that he had been the victim of rape, poisoning and beating by various individuals, especially teaching and medical staff. Mother manifested psychosis and her child presented with impaired cognitive development, emotional problems and conduct disorder.

Abstract:
Munchausen By Proxy Syndrome is a form of child abuse whereby parents induce symptoms of real illness, or falsely report symptoms, to initiate medical treatment for their children. Following a review of the literature with respect to case management, the author presents for study a case followed from initial suspicion to resolution two years later. The management of this case is compared to what the literature would suggest is the ideal practice. Areas of weakness are found to be the average social worker's lack of knowledge about the syndrome, due to its rarity, agency unpreparedness to deal with a case, over-reliance upon medical opinion and a lack of advice as to the long term likelihood of family reunification. Recommendations are made for the field of social work, child protection in particular.

Abstract:
This thesis will demonstrate how Munchausen Syndrome and, by derivation Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, grew out of historical themes of assigning disease labels to anomalous or problematic behaviour, replicating issues of gender, particularly in respect of illness and madness and power biases, in society. The literature review will demonstrate how the early case notifications provided 'a Munchausen narrative', which came both to construct and to pathologise, first patients and later women, as mothers. It is argued that psychiatric models account for few cases of child abuse. A more coherent theory allows child abuse and, therefore, Msbp to be understood within a framework, which takes account of past and present ecological influences on the development of individual experience, characteristics and competency, and importantly, the meaning of a child within the life-cycle of that individual. The research, in this thesis, was designed to provide an estimate of the incidence of Msbp in Scotland. While it confirmed die findings of earlier studies diat illness induction and fabrication are rare events, it demonstrated a range of manifestations of abnormal behaviour among parents, in presenting their children to doctors, which were recognisable as being abusive and which often overlapped other forms of child maltreatment and neglect. It became apparent that the connotations of the title Msbp, particularly in relation to its psychodynamic formulations and evidencing actual or a risk ofsignificant harm, makes this a professionally fraught and ill-defined area of child protection work for Paediatricians, irrespective of recent Guidance (RCPCH 2002). The concluding sections of the thesis will consider inherent difficulties in working in this difficult area of child abuse and will provide recommendations for facilitating professional and child protection practices.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.S.)--Boston University
Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP) is a term given to a situation which presents criteria for both Pediatric Condition Falsification (PCF) and factitious disorder by proxy (FDP). According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV text revision (DSM-IV-TR), in child abuse cases where FDP is a result of PCF, then the nomenclature, MSBP, can be used interchangeably to describe such an event. Currently, in a situation that is diagnosed as Factitious Disorder by Proxy, the perpetrator of such an event is diagnosed as having Factitious Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (FD-NOS). An obvious issue stemming from this is the confusion over what should be diagnosed and remedied, i.e., the situation, the perpetrator, and/or the victim. Due to the convoluted and often controversial definition of such an event, as well as the criteria for diagnosis, it is proposed here that a new definition be adopted to explain this form of child abuse. With this novel definition, the symptoms of this psychological disorder of the perpetrator are observed in the victim. Under this new definition, the psychiatric term "Factitious Disorder by Proxy" would be used as a mental diagnosis of the caregiver, wherein the symptoms manifest in that of the victim. Additionally, an addendum to the type of symptoms exhibited in the child is proposed to include that of the exacerbation of symptoms in children with valid pre-existing conditions. An extensive literature review was performed to support the proposal for changing the criteria and diagnosis of FDP in the DSM. The implications of this change would greatly benefit not only the psychiatric, medical, and legal realm, but the forensic community as well.

Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 106-112.
The primary aim of this dissertation was to gain an understanding of the psychopathology present in the perpetrator of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSP), exploring Jureidini's (1999) notion that this behaviour can be explained as the perpetrator engaging in a form of pathological play. A systematic literature review regarding MSP, with particular foci on psychopathology in perpetrators of MSP and the notion of pathological play was conducted. The notion that MSP is a form of pathological play was critically evaluated through the use of clinical case material. Two cases were selected, both of which met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (American Psychiatric Association, 1994) diagnostic criteria for MSP, based on the assessment of a child psychiatrist with expertise in this area. The case material was analysed through the generation of common themes and identification of repetitive patterns which were then systematically analysed and compared with the findings cited in the literature review, with particular reference to MSP as a form of pathological play. Jureidini's (1999) theoretical statement was analysed in the light of the available evidence and the theoretical basis was then revised. Aspects explained by the theory were presented. Aspects not explained by the theory were rejected. Object Relations Theory was proposed as an alternative to understanding the psychopathology present in a perpetrator of MSP.

Abstract:
The Munchausen syndrome by proxy refers to a pathology characterized by physical and emotional abuse in which the simulation or production of symptoms is directed towards a child, which involves taking him or her to health treatments and unnecessary surgeries. The difficulties in the diagnosis of this form of abuse and the emotional aspects involved highlight the destructive effects in the infancy subjectivity due to the lack of loving capacity protecting and prioritizing the child demands. Psychoanalysis offers a differentiated view, comprehending that the mother attempts to elaborate her own psychic conflicts by the repetition of traumatic experience. There is a necessity of comprehension of the instinct destructivity presented in the maternal unconscious dynamics revealed in the modality of caring which is reflected in violence.
El Síndrome de Munchausen by proxy se refiere a una patología caracterizada por el abuso físico o emocional, en donde la simulación o producción de síntomas es direccionada al hijo, llevando a tratamientos de salud y cirugías innecesarios. Las dificultades diagnósticas de este tipo de abuso y los aspectos emocionales implicados llaman atención por los efectos destructivos en la subjetividad infantil, fruto de una falla en la capacidad de amar, proteger y priorizar las demandas del hijo. El Psicoanálisis ofrece una mirada que retrata un intento de elaboración de los propios conflictos psíquicos por la vía de la repetición de vivencias traumáticas. Así, se percibe la necesidad de una comprensión de la destrucción pulsional presente en la dinámica inconsciente materna revelada por esta modalidad de cuidado que se traduce en violencia.

Abstract:
Mock jurors (N = 200) read descriptions of a mock civil case involving an adult survivor of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy who is suing his/her abuser for monetary/psychological damages. Jurors individually decided perceived percent of responsibility of defendant, award to plaintiff pre- and post-group deliberations, and as a mock jury, in groups of 5 to 10. Jurors and juries assigned greater percent of culpability to female defendants than male defendants. Individual jurors awarded more n1oney to plaintiffs abused by female defendants than male defendants. Low Modem Sexism Scale (MSS) scorers attributed greater percentage of responsibility to defendants and awarded plaintiff more money than high scorers. There was no significant difference in award to male or female plaintiffs; however, greater percent of culpability was assigned to defendants who abused plaintiff longer (i.e., 19 years vs. 10 years). Low Belief in Just World (BJW) scorers individually attributed greater percent of responsibility to defendant and awarded more money to plaintiff than high scorers. Gender of defendant, just world, and sexist attitudes appeared to play important roles in jurors' decisions in cases involving adults who were child victims.

Abstract:
« On bat un enfant » ; « on tue un enfant » : pour la plupart de nos contemporains, c’est là l’horreur même — la transgression de ce qui reste encore de sacré dans notre culture dite moderne. Pour quelques autres, c’est une réalité clinique : celle que l’on saisit à travers ce que l’on appelle d’ordinaire « maltraitance infantile » et « infanticides ». Et pour tous (pour tout sujet), il s’agit également de la présentification d’un fantasme — le plus fondamental qui soit, encela qu’il convoque d’un côté le rapport au père et le masochisme primordial, d’un autre le rapport à l’idéal et le narcissisme primaire. Le plus fondamental des fantasmes, au point de pouvoir être considéré comme une écriture de sa « formule », le texte en exprimant au mieux la logique.C’est à nouer ces registres — structure du fantasme et réel clinique de la maltraitance infantile — et à en explorer les tenants et aboutissants, que se consacre cette thèse. Qui s’emploie à montrer d’abord comment la féminité peut porter à la maternité, et ce qui se joue dans le « désir d’enfant », voire dans le désir de mort de l’enfant (c’est-à-dire dans le ravage quand il aboutit à l’acte). Puis quels extrêmes peut atteindre la clinique avec le « syndrome de Münchhausen par procuration », d’une part, et les « néonaticides » avec conservation des corps des nouveau-nés, d’autre part (c’est-à-direavec ces situations où l’horreur se montre pour mieux se dissimuler, et se cache pour mieux s’exhiber).Ce qui permet donc, en dépliant ainsi ces figures de la mère, de l’enfant, et du mal, d’éclairer la logique du fantasme par le réel clinique — et réciproquement. C’est-à-dire d’éclairer la structure subjective, saisie au « coeur de l’être »
« A child is being beaten » ; « a child is being killed » : for most of our contemporaries, this is an epitome of horror — a transgression of what is still considered as sacred in our socalled modern culture.For some others, it is a clinical reality : the one we observe through what is usually called « child abuse » and infanticides.And for everybody (for every subject), it is also the presentification of a phantasy — the most basic of all, as it concerns on one hand the relationship with the father and the primordial masochism, and on the other one the relation with the ideal and the primary narcissism. It is the most fondamental of phantasies so much that it can be considered as an account of its « formula », the text expressing its logic at best.Intertwining these two matrixes — structure of the phantasy and clinical reality of child abuse — and exploring the ins and outs ; this is the issue analyzed in the thesis. First, what is shown here is how feminity can lead to maternity and what is at stake in « desiring a child », even in the desire for the child’s death (i.e. in the « ravage » when it leads to the acting out). Then which extreme can the clinical approach get close to with « The Munchausen syndrom by proxy » on one hand, and « neonaticides » with the keeping of the bodies of the new borns on the other one (i.e. where horror can be shown to hide all the better and to hide to be better exhibited).Hence the possibility, by unfolding the figures of the mother, of the child, and of the evil, to shed light on the logic of the phantasy thanks to the clinical reality — and vice versa.In other words, to throw light on the subjective structure, seized in the « heart of being »
