Child neglect is the most common and arguably the most detrimental form of child maltreatment, yet public awareness of neglect lags far behind child abuse (Dubowitz, 2007). In 2009, an estimated 763,000 children in the United States were abused or neglected, 78% of whom experienced neglect, either alone or in combination with other forms of maltreatment. Approximately one-third (35.8%) of child...

Whereas child maltreatment research has developed considerable evidence on post-natal risk-factors, pre-natal circumstances have been largely overlooked. The circumstances surrounding a pregnancy may considerably impact the environment in which later parenting behaviors occur. This study examines one of the earliest potentially identifiable risk-factors for child maltreatment: the intentions of...

This article applies a developmental-ecological perspective to the question of the etiology of physical child abuse and neglect by organizing the paper around a variety of "contexts of maltreatment." The roles of parent and child characteristics and processes are considered ("developmental context"), including an examination of intergenerational transmission. The "immediate interactional contex...
OBJECTIVES The current study investigates the moderating effect of perceived social support on associations between child maltreatment severity and adult trauma symptoms. We extend the existing literature by examining the roles of severity of multiple maltreatment types (i.e., sexual, physical, and emotional abuse; physical and emotional neglect) and gender in this process. METHODS The sample...

DESIGN, PARTICIPANTS AND S...
