本研究考察了 18 岁青少年自我报告的虐待行为与儿童保护服务 (CPS) 决定的一致性，以及虐待特征如何预测一致性。它包括 819 名青少年，他们参与了虐待和忽视儿童纵向研究 (LONGSCAN) 长达 18 年的访谈。交叉制表显示，自我报告与 CPS 对身体、性和情感虐待的判定之间的对应性较低。逻辑回归发现，在患有 CPS 身体虐待的青少年中，白人种族、长期性和同时发生的忽视与相应的自我报告呈正相关。同时发生的 CPS 确定的情感虐待与自我报告更加一致。更频繁的自我报告的身体虐待与相应的 CPS 确定相关。儿童时期非父母家庭/其他家庭成员的情感虐待和犯罪行为的自我报告与相应的 CPS 判定呈正相关。 CPS 测定一致性也因 LONGSCAN 站点而异。结果表明，CPS 数据和青少年自我报告所捕获的虐待特征存在差异，这可能会影响虐待相关性的研究结果。
This study examines the concordance of abuse self-reported by adolescents at 18 years and child protective service (CPS) determinations and how abuse characteristics predict concordance. It includes 819 youths participating in 18-year interviews of the Longitudinal Study of Child Abuse and Neglect (LONGSCAN). Cross-tabulations revealed low correspondence between self-reports and CPS determinations of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. Logistic regression identified that among youths with CPS physical abuse determinations, White race, chronicity, and co-occurring neglect were positively associated with corresponding self-reports. Co-occurring CPS-determined emotional abuse was more concordant with self-reports. More frequent self-reported physical abuse was associated with corresponding CPS determinations. Self-reports of childhood emotional abuse and perpetration by nonparental family/other household members were positively associated with corresponding CPS determinations. CPS determination concordance also varied significantly by LONGSCAN site. Results demonstrate differences in abuse characteristics captured by CPS data and youth self-report, which may impact research findings on abuse correlates.
