Abstract = {<h4>Importance</h4>Child maltreatment is a serious public
health problem that disproportionately affects infants and
toddlers. In the interest of informing prevention and
intervention efforts, this study examined pregnant women's
attributions about infants as a risk factor for child
maltreatment and harsh parenting during their children's
first and second years. We also provide specific methods for
practitioners to assess hostile attributions.<h4>Objective</h4>To
evaluate pregnant women's hostile attributions about infants
as a risk factor for early child maltreatment and harsh
parenting.<h4>Design</h4>Prospective longitudinal
study.<h4>Setting</h4>A small Southeastern city and its
surrounding county.<h4>Participants</h4>A diverse,
community-based sample of 499 pregnant women.<h4>Main
outcomes and measures</h4>Official records of child
maltreatment and mother-reported harsh parenting behaviors.
Hostile attributions were examined in terms of women's
beliefs about infants' negative intentions (eg, the extent
to which infants purposefully dirty their
diapers).<h4>Results</h4>Mothers' hostile attributions
increased the likelihood that their child would be
maltreated by the age of 26 months (adjusted odds ratio,
1.26 [90% CI, 1.02-1.56]). Mothers who made more hostile
attributions during pregnancy reported engaging in more
harsh parenting behaviors when their children were toddlers
(β = 0.14, P < .05). Both associations were robust to the
inclusion of 7 psychosocial covariates.<h4>Conclusions</h4>AND
RELEVANCE: A pregnant woman's hostile attributions about
infant's intentions signal risk for maltreatment and harsh
parenting of her child during the first years of life.
Practitioners' attention to women's hostile attributions may
help identify those in need of immediate practitioner input
and/or referral to parenting services.},

Abstract = {This article presents a prospective investigation focusing
on the moderating role of peer victimization on associations
between harsh home environments in the preschool years and
academic trajectories during elementary school. The
participants were 388 children (198 boys, 190 girls) who we
recruited as part of an ongoing multisite longitudinal
investigation. Preschool home environment was assessed with
structured interviews and questionnaires completed by
parents. Peer victimization was assessed with a peer
nomination inventory that was administered when the average
age of the participants was approximately 8.5 years. Grade
point averages (GPAs) were obtained from reviews of school
records, conducted for 7 consecutive years. Indicators of
restrictive punitive discipline and exposure to violence
were associated with within-subject declines in academic
functioning over 7 years. However, these effects were
exacerbated for those children who had also experienced
victimization in the peer group during the intervening
years.},

Abstract = {Research suggests that corporal punishment is related to
higher levels of child externalizing behavior, but there has
been controversy regarding whether infrequent, mild spanking
predicts child externalizing or whether more severe and
frequent forms of corporal punishment account for the link.
Mothers rated the frequency with which they spanked and
whether they spanked with a hand or object when their child
was 6, 7, and 8 years old. Mothers and teachers rated
children's externalizing behaviors at each age. Analyses of
covariance revealed higher levels of mother-reported
externalizing behavior for children who experienced harsh
spanking. Structural equation models for children who
experienced no spanking or mild spanking only revealed that
spanking was related to concurrent and prior, but not
subsequent, externalizing. Mild spanking in one year was a
risk factor for harsh spanking in the next year. Findings
are discussed in the context of efforts to promote
children's rights to protection.},

Abstract = {In the interest of improving child maltreatment prevention
science, this longitudinal, community based study of 499
mothers and their infants tested the hypothesis that
mothers' childhood history of maltreatment would predict
maternal substance use problems, which in turn would predict
offspring victimization. Mothers (35% White/non-Latina, 34%
Black/non-Latina, 23% Latina, 7% other) were recruited and
interviewed during pregnancy, and child protective services
records were reviewed for the presence of the participants'
target infants between birth and age 26 months. Mediating
pathways were examined through structural equation modeling
and tested using the products of the coefficients approach.
The mediated pathway from maternal history of sexual abuse
to substance use problems to offspring victimization was
significant (standardized mediated path [ab] = .07, 95%
CI [.02, .14]; effect size = .26), as was the mediated
pathway from maternal history of physical abuse to substance
use problems to offspring victimization (standardized
mediated path [ab] = .05, 95% CI [.01, .11]; effect
size = .19). There was no significant mediated pathway
from maternal history of neglect. Findings are discussed in
terms of specific implications for child maltreatment
prevention, including the importance of assessment and early
intervention for maternal history of maltreatment and
substance use problems, targeting women with maltreatment
histories for substance use services, and integrating child
welfare and parenting programs with substance use
treatment.},

Abstract = {Using data from two long-term longitudinal projects, we
investigated reciprocal relations between maternal reports
of physical discipline and teacher and self-ratings of child
externalizing behavior, accounting for continuity in both
discipline and externalizing over time. In Study 1, which
followed a community sample of 562 boys and girls from age 6
to 9, high levels of physical discipline in a given year
predicted high levels of externalizing behavior in the next
year, and externalizing behavior in a given year predicted
high levels of physical discipline in the next year. In
Study 2, which followed an independent sample of 290 lower
income, higher risk boys from age 10 to 15, mother-reported
physical discipline in a given year predicted child ratings
of antisocial behavior in the next year, but child
antisocial behavior in a given year did not predict parents'
use of physical discipline in the next year. In neither
sample was there evidence that associations between physical
discipline and child externalizing changed as the child
aged, and findings were not moderated by gender, race,
socioeconomic status, or the severity of the physical
discipline. Implications for the reciprocal nature of the
socialization process and the risks associated with physical
discipline are discussed.},

Abstract = {Prospective longitudinal data from 585 families were used to
examine parents' reports of child physical abuse in the
first 5 years of life as a predictor of substance use at

substance use for females but not males. We found a direct
effect of early physical abuse on girls'substance use at age
12 and indirect effects on substance use at age 16 and age
24 through substance use at age 12. For boys, age 12
substance use predicted age 16 substance use, and age 16
substance use predicted age 24 substance use, but physical
abuse in the first 5 years of life was unrelated to
subsequent substance use. These findings suggest that for
females, a mechanism of influence of early physical abuse on
substance use into early adulthood appears to be through
precocious initiation of substance use in early
adolescence.},

Abstract = {Background. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to a
global perspective on corporal punishment by examining
differences between mothers' and fathers' use of corporal
punishment with daughters and sons in nine countries.
Methods. Interviews were conducted with 1398 mothers, 1146
fathers, and 1417 children (age range = 7 to 10 years) in
China, Colombia, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, the Philippines,
Sweden, Thailand, and the United States. Results. Across the
entire sample, 54% of girls and 58% of boys had experienced
mild corporal punishment, and 13% of girls and 14% of boys
had experienced severe corporal punishment by their parents
or someone in their household in the last month. Seventeen
percent of parents believed that the use of corporal
punishment was necessary to rear the target child. Overall,
boys were more frequently punished corporally than were
girls, and mothers used corporal punishment more frequently
than did fathers. There were significant differences across
countries, with reports of corporal punishment use lowest in
Sweden and highest in Kenya. Conclusion. This work
establishes that the use of corporal punishment is
widespread, and efforts to prevent corporal punishment from
escalating into physical abuse should be commensurately
widespread.},

Abstract = {Deborah Daro and Kenneth Dodge observe that efforts to
prevent child abuse have historically focused on directly
improving the skills of parents who are at risk for or
engaged in maltreatment. But, as experts increasingly
recognize that negative forces within a community can
overwhelm even well-intentioned parents, attention is
shifting toward creating environments that facilitate a
parent's ability to do the right thing. The most
sophisticated and widely used community prevention programs,
say Daro and Dodge, emphasize the reciprocal interplay
between individual-family behavior and broader neighborhood,
community, and cultural contexts. The authors examine five
different community prevention efforts, summarizing for each
both the theory of change and the empirical evidence
concerning its efficacy. Each program aims to enhance
community capacity by expanding formal and informal
resources and establishing a normative cultural context
capable of fostering collective responsibility for positive
child development. Over the past ten years, researchers have
explored how neighborhoods influence child development and
support parenting. Scholars are still searching for
agreement on the most salient contextual factors and on how
to manipulate these factors to increase the likelihood
parents will seek out, find, and effectively use necessary
and appropriate support. The current evidence base for
community child abuse prevention, observe Daro and Dodge,
offers both encouragement and reason for caution. Although
theory and empirical research suggest that intervention at
the neighborhood level is likely to prevent child
maltreatment, designing and implementing a high-quality,
multifaceted community prevention initiative is expensive.
Policy makers must consider the trade-offs in investing in
strategies to alter community context and those that expand
services for known high-risk individuals. The authors
conclude that if the concept of community prevention is to
move beyond the isolated examples examined in their article,
additional conceptual and empirical work is needed to garner
support from public institutions, community-based
stakeholders, and local residents.},

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: The goals of this research are to develop and
test a prospective model of attention problems in sexually
abused children that includes fixed variables (e.g.,
gender), trauma, and disclosure-related pathways. METHODS:
At Time 1, fixed variables, trauma variables, and stress
reactions upon disclosure were assessed in 156 children aged
8-13 years. At the Time 2 follow-up (8-36 months following
the initial interview), 56 of the children were assessed for
attention problems. RESULTS: A path analysis involving a
series of hierarchically nested, ordinary least squares
multiple regression analyses indicated two direct paths to
attention problems including the child's relationship to the
perpetrator (beta=.23) and dissociation measured immediately
after disclosure (beta=.53), while controlling for
concurrent externalizing behavior (beta=.43). Post-traumatic
stress symptoms were only indirectly associated with
attention problems via dissociation. Taken together, these
pathways accounted for approximately 52% of the variance in
attention problems and provided an excellent fit to the
data. CONCLUSIONS: Children who report dissociative symptoms
upon disclosure of CSA and/or were sexually abused by
someone within their family are at an increased risk of
developing attention problems. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS:
Findings from this study indicate that children who
experienced sexual abuse at an earlier age, by someone
within their family, and/or report symptoms of dissociation
during disclosure are especially likely to benefit from
intervention. Effective interventions should involve (1)
providing emotion regulation and coping skills; and (2)
helping children to process traumatic aspects of the abuse
to reduce the cyclic nature of traumatic reminders leading
to unmanageable stress and dissociation.},

higher use of physical discipline was associated with more
aggression and anxiety.},

Abstract = {Maltreatment places children at risk for psychiatric
morbidity, especially conduct problems. However, not all
maltreated children develop conduct problems. We tested
whether the effect of physical maltreatment on risk for
conduct problems was strongest among those who were at high
genetic risk for these problems using data from the E-risk
Study, a representative cohort of 1,116 5-year-old British
twin pairs and their families. Children's conduct problems
were ascertained via parent and teacher interviews. Physical
maltreatment was ascertained via parent report. Children's
genetic risk for conduct problems was estimated as a
function of their co-twin's conduct disorder status and the
pair's zygosity. The effect of maltreatment on risk for
conduct problems was strongest among those at high genetic
risk. The experience of maltreatment was associated with an
increase of 2% in the probability of a conduct disorder

greater accuracy if both pathogenic environments and genetic
risk are ascertained. Certain genotypes may promote
resistance to trauma. Physically maltreated children whose
first-degree relatives engage in antisocial behavior warrant
priority for therapeutic intervention.},

Abstract = {<h4>Background</h4>Parents' use of physical discipline has
generated controversy related to concerns that its use is
associated with adjustment problems such as aggression and
delinquency in children. However, recent evidence suggests
that there are ethnic differences in associations between
physical discipline and children's adjustment. This study
examined race as a moderator of the link between physical
discipline and adolescent externalizing behavior problems,
extending previous research beyond childhood into
adolescence and considering physical discipline at multiple
points in time.<h4>Methods</h4>A representative community
sample of 585 children was followed from pre-kindergarten
(age 5) through grade 11 (age 16). Mothers reported on their
use of physical discipline in the child's first five years
of life and again during grades 6 (age 11) and 8 (age 13).
Mothers and adolescents reported on a variety of
externalizing behaviors in grade 11 including aggression,
violence, and trouble at school and with the
police.<h4>Results</h4>A series of hierarchical linear
regressions controlling for parents' marital status,
socioeconomic status, and child temperament revealed
significant interactions between physical discipline during
the child's first five years of life and race in the
prediction of 3 of the 7 adolescent externalizing outcomes
assessed and significant interactions between physical
discipline during grades 6 and 8 and race in the prediction
of all 7 adolescent externalizing outcomes. Regression
slopes showed that the experience of physical discipline at
each time point was related to higher levels of subsequent
externalizing behaviors for European American adolescents
but lower levels of externalizing behaviors for African
American adolescents.<h4>Conclusions</h4>There are race
differences in long-term effects of physical discipline on
externalizing behaviors problems. Different ecological
niches may affect the manner in which parents use physical
discipline, the meaning that children attach to the
experience of physical discipline, and its effects on the
adjustment of children and adolescents.},

behavior problems, and (c) whether predictive relations were
accounted for by social-ecological (socioeconomic status,
mothers' employment status, marital status) and
social-experiential (parenting quality, exposure to
aggressive peers) factors. Correlations among overall
amounts of care provided little evidence of cross-time
continuity. Consistent with the cumulative risk perspective,
Grade 1 self-care and Grade 6 unsupervised peer contact
incrementally predicted Grade 6 externalizing problems. Most
of the predictive associations were accounted for by family
background and social relationship factors.},

Abstract = {In a sample of 578 children assessed in kindergarten through
the eighth grade, we used growth modeling to determine the
basic developmental trajectories of mother-reported and
teacher-reported externalizing and internalizing behaviors
for three physical maltreatment groups of
children-early-harmed (prior to age 5 years), later-harmed
(age 5 years and over), and nonharmed--controlling for SES
and gender. Results demonstrated that the earlier children
experienced harsh physical treatment by significant adults,
the more likely they were to experience adjustment problems
in early adolescence. Over multiple domains, early physical
maltreatment was related to more negative sequelae than the
same type of maltreatment occurring at later periods. In
addition, the fitted growth models revealed that the
early-harmed group exhibited someswhat higher initial levels
of teacher-reported externalizing problems in kindergarten
and significantly different rates of change in these problem
behaviors than other children, as reported by mothers over
the 9 years of this study. The early-harmed children were
also seen by teachers, in kindergarten, as exhibiting higher
levels of internalizing behaviors. The later-harmed children
were seen by their teachers as increasing their
externalizing problem behaviors more rapidly over the 9
years than did the early- or nonharmed children. These
findings indicate that the timing of maltreatment is a
salient factor in examining the developmental effects of
physical harm.},

Abstract = {Two prospective investigations of the moderating role of
dyadic friendship in the developmental pathway to peer
victimization are reported. In Study 1, the preschool home
environments (i.e., harsh discipline, marital conflict,
stress, abuse, and maternal hostility) of 389 children were
assessed by trained interviewers. These children were then
followed into the middle years of elementary school, with
peer victimization, group social acceptance, and friendship
assessed annually with a peer nomination inventory. In Study
2, the home environments of 243 children were assessed in
the summer before 1st grade, and victimization, group
acceptance, and friendship were assessed annually over the
next 3 years. In both studies, early harsh, punitive, and
hostile family environments predicted later victimization by
peers for children who had a low number of friendships.
However, the predictive associations did not hold for
children who had numerous friendships. These findings
provide support for conceptualizations of friendship as a
moderating factor in the pathways to peer group
victimization.},

Abstract = {This study examined relations among mothers' hostile
attribution tendencies regarding their children's ambiguous
problem behaviors, mothers' harsh discipline practices, and
children's externalizing behavior problems. A community
sample of 277 families (19% minority representation) living
in three geographic regions of the United States was
followed for over 4 years. Mothers' hostile attribution
tendencies were assessed during the summer prior to
children's entry into kindergarten through their responses
to written vignettes. Mothers' harsh discipline practices
were assessed concurrently through ratings by interviewers
and reports by spouses. Children's externalizing behavior
problems were assessed concurrently through written
questionnaires by mothers and fathers and in the spring of
kindergarten and first, second, and third grades through
reports by teachers and peer sociometric nominations.
Results of structural equations models demonstrated that
mothers' hostile attribution tendencies predicted children's
future externalizing behavior problems at school and that a
large proportion of this relation was mediated by mothers'
harsh discipline practices. These results remained virtually
unchanged when controlling for initial levels of children's
prekindergarten externalizing behavior problems at
home.},

Abstract = {The effect of early physical maltreatment on the development
of peer relationships was examined in a representative
sample of 585 boys and girls. Subjects were assessed for
physical maltreatment in the first 5 years of life and then
followed for 5 consecutive years. The assessment was based
on a clinical interview with parents. Twelve percent of the
sample was identified as having experienced physical
maltreatment. Peers, teachers, and mothers independently
evaluated the maltreated group of children as being more
disliked, less popular, and more socially withdrawn than the
nonmaltreated group in every year of evaluation, with the
magnitude of difference growing over time. These effects
held even when family socioeconomic status was controlled.
The findings were interpreted as being consistent with the
hypothesis that early maltreatment disrupts attachment
relationships with adult caregivers, and these disruptions
then impair a child's ability to form effective peer
relationships. © 1994, Cambridge University Press. All

Abstract = {Although spanking of children is almost universal in U.S.
society, its effects are not well understood. We examined
the longitudinal relation between parental spanking and
other physical punishment of preschool children and
children's aggressive behavior toward peers later in
kindergarten. A total of 273 boys and girls from diverse
backgrounds served as subjects. The findings were consistent
with a socialization model in which higher levels of
severity in parental punishment practices are associated
with higher levels of children's subsequent aggression
toward peers. Findings indicated that children who had been
spanked evidenced levels of aggression that were higher than
those who had not been spanked, and children who had been
the objects of violent discipline became the most aggressive
of all groups. Patterns were qualified by the sexes of the
parent and child and subtypes of child aggression (reactive,
bullying, and instrumental). The findings suggest that in
spite of parents' goals, spanking fails to promote prosocial
development and, instead, is associated with higher rates of
aggression toward peers. © 1994, Cambridge University

Abstract = {Although a number of studies have reported a relation
between abusive parental behavior and later aggressive
behavior in the victim, many of these investigations have
had methodological limitations that make precise
interpretation of their results problematic. In the present
study, we attempted to determine whether harsh parental
discipline occurring early in life was associated with later
aggression and internalizing behavior in children, using a
prospective design with randomly selected samples to avoid
some of these methodological difficulties. Structural
equation modeling indicated a consistent relation between
harsh discipline and aggression in 2 separate cohorts of
children. This relation did not appear to be due to possible
confounding factors such as child temperament, SES, and
marital violence, although there was some indication in our
data that the latter variables were related to child
aggression. In addition, our analyses suggested that the
effect of harsh discipline on child aggression may be
mediated at least in part by maladaptive social information
processing patterns that develop in response to the harsh
discipline.},
