The prevention of child abuse is a difficult and multifaceted task. The importance of preventing it, however, cannot be overemphasized because the physical and psychological consequences of abuse can be very serious. Child abuse can result not only in physical handicaps but also in severe neurological problems. ( ① ) A blow to the head can cause bleeding inside a child’s skull, ultimately leading to brain damage. What is particularly surprising and disturbing is that infants, whose skulls are much larger than their brains (which are still growing) can suffer hemorrhages throughout the brain simply by being shaken. The shaken baby syndrome can cause brain damage as well as visual problems and deficits in language and motor skills. Besides the neurological consequences of abuse, children also suffer from disturbances in emotional and social development. ( ② ) They have learned from their home life that the involvement with other people carries a great deal of pain. They tend to be inhabited and socially unresponsive, often backing away when a friendly caregiver or another child approaches them. Such children have also been found to be overly compliant or to exhibit violent and aggressive behavior towards adults and peers. Some abused children are hypervigilant, meaning that they are constantly on the lookout for danger, scanning the environment and ever-ready to attack. ( ③ ) For example, it may well be the case that because of the ill treatment they have received, these children failed to develop the social skills required to engage in harmonious social interactions. Or, they may be imitating the hostile interpersonal exchanges that they have experienced. Some children overcome the physical and psychological effects of child abuse, particularly those with strong social support and resiliency skills who can adapt and cope with bad experiences. For many others, however, child abuse may result in physical, behavioral, emotional or mental health issues — even years later. ( ④ ) We can take important steps to protect the child from exploitation and child abuse, as well as prevent child abuse in our neighborhood or community. The goal is to provide safe, stable, nurturing relationships for children.

請仔細觀察待插入句中的核心動詞片語 $account for$ (解釋、說明原因) 以及受詞 $social behaviors$ (社交行為)。這是一個具備「承上啟下」功能的轉折句。請檢查文章中標號 $①$ 至 $④$ 的位置，哪一個標號的後方內容，開始具體運用了 $For example$ 等語意銜接詞，來具體說明孩子之所以展現出上述異常社交反應的「背後成因」或「心理機制」呢？
