本研究的目的是进一步整合的累积风险模型与实证研究的病因儿童虐待。尽管有成熟的文献支持生态风险积累的重要性，但这种观点很难渗透到经验性虐待研究中，而且其倾向于关注更有限的风险因素。利用842个母婴配对样本，我们比较了个体风险因素和累积指数的能力，以预测虐待报告的前瞻性纵向调查在前16年的生活。研究发现，婴儿早期的风险总负荷与母亲对她的新角色的认知、社会支持和福祉的衡量标准以及儿童认知功能的指标有关。在控制了累积风险的总水平后，大多数单一因素未能预测后来的虐待报告，没有一个单一的变量提供了比值比作为强大的预测能力的累积指数。继续从简单的因果模型转向对风险累积性质的认识，将是我们在概念化干预和支持计划的方式上迈出的重要一步，集中精力减轻社会上如此多的家庭面临的重大风险。
The purpose of the current study was to further the integration of cumulative risk models with empirical research on the etiology of child maltreatment. Despite the well-established literature supporting the importance of the accumulation of ecological risk, this perspective has had difficulty infiltrating empirical maltreatment research and its tendency to focus on more limited risk factors. Utilizing a sample of 842 mother-infant dyads, we compared the capacity of individual risk factors and a cumulative index to predict maltreatment reports in a prospective longitudinal investigation over the first sixteen years of life. The total load of risk in early infancy was found to be related to maternal cognitions surrounding her new role, measures of social support and well-being, and indicators of child cognitive functioning. After controlling for total level of cumulative risk, most single factors failed to predict later maltreatment reports and no single variable provided odd-ratios as powerful as the predictive power of a cumulative index. Continuing the shift away from simplistic causal models toward an appreciation for the cumulative nature of risk would be an important step forward in the way we conceptualize intervention and support programs, concentrating them squarely on alleviating the substantial risk facing so many of society’s families.
