The aim of this thesis was to provide a portrait of the child sexual abuse (CSA) experiences of a sample of Québec youth living in residential child protective services (CPS) care using three sources of information: the youth, their workers and the CPS record.

Abstract:
Patients with dementia, especially Alzheimer’s disease and particularly those in early stages, are susceptible to become victims of predators: Their agnosia (see Case 1) prevents them from detecting and accurately interpreting subtle signals that otherwise would have alerted them that they are about to fall for a scam. Furthermore, their judgment is impaired very early in the disease process, often before other symptoms manifest themselves and usually before a diagnosis is made. Patients with early stages of dementia are therefore prime targets for unscrupulous predators, and it behooves careg
