从纵向的数据，城市内的社区样本被用来检查儿童虐待在男性的流行程度，并将其与破坏性和不良儿童行为联系起来。到18岁时，几乎有四分之一的家庭被转介到儿童和青年服务处。CYS的调查结果显示，10%的参与者确实受到虐待，主要是身体虐待和忽视。几乎所有的虐待都是由与受害者住在同一所房子里的人实施的。虐待与男孩破坏性和违法行为的发展有三条途径相关：权威冲突途径、显性途径和隐性途径。三分之二的受害者表现出权威冲突问题，几乎所有受虐男孩都表现出显性和隐性途径的行为特征。与匹配的对照组相比，受害者更有可能参与权力冲突和公开途径的行为特征，但不太可能参与与隐蔽途径相关的行为。与对照组相比，受害者更有可能被转介到少年法庭。大多数与CYS接触倾向于先于或同时发生显性和隐性问题行为，但大约一半的权力冲突行为倾向于先于与CYS接触。
Data from a longitudinal, inner-city community sample were used to examine the prevalence of child maltreatment in males and to relate this to disruptive and delinquent child behavior. By age 18 years, almost one fourth of the families had been referred to Children and Youth Services (CYS). Investigation by the CYS resulted in substantiated maltreatment of 10% of the participants, mostly for physical abuse and neglect. Almost all maltreatment was perpetrated by people living in the same house as the victim. Maltreatment was related to the boys progressing on three pathways in disruptive and delinquent behavior: authority conflict pathway, overt pathway, and covert pathway. Two thirds of the victims showed authority conflict problems, and almost all of the maltreated boys displayed behaviors characteristic of the overt and covert pathways. Victims, compared to matched controls, were more likely to have engaged in behaviors characteristic of the authority conflict and the overt pathways but less strongly engaged in behaviors associated with the covert pathway. Victims were also more likely than controls to have a referral to juvenile court. Most of the CYS contact tended to precede or co-occur with onset of overt and covert problem behavior, but about half of the onset of authority conflict behaviors tended to precede contact with CYS.
