目的:确定虐待孩子的母亲中亲密伴侣暴力(定义为过去12个月或之前的任何身体暴力)的流行程度,并检查母亲的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)经历是否与儿童在接下来的18个月里向儿童保护服务(CPS)的反复报告(报告)有关。方法:分析数据来自全国儿童和青少年健康调查(NSCAW),这是一项调查儿童虐待的全国概率研究。从1999年10月至2000年12月进入美国儿童福利体系的家庭中随机抽取5501名儿童(0-14岁)作为样本。分析样本仅限于1,236个家庭,其中照顾者是:(1)在基线时被指控虐待儿童的肇事者(独立于证实状态);(2)没有被安置在家庭外照顾的儿童的亲生母亲(n = 1,212或98.6%),养母(n = 17或1%)或继母(n = 7或0.3%)。结果:母亲在过去12个月或之前接受面谈时遭受亲密伴侣身体虐待的儿童(44%)向CPS报告的可能性是没有经历过这种暴力的母亲的儿童的两倍(29% vs. 14%,优势比= 2.0,95%置信区间= 1.1-3.4)。与没有经历过IPV的母亲的孩子相比,经历过IPV的母亲的孩子报告发生的速度几乎是两倍(风险比= 1.9,95%置信区间= 1.1-3.0)。结论:与亲密伴侣暴力相关的儿童虐待报告的风险更高,报告速度更快,这突出表明需要在CPS调查的家庭中对IPV进行普遍评估和提供服务。2009爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of intimate partner violence (defined as any physical violence during the last 12 months or previously) among mothers who maltreat their children, and to examine whether mothers' experiences of intimate partner violence (IPV) are associated with repeated reports (rereports) of children to Child Protective Services (CPS) during the following 18 months.Methods: Data for the analyses were from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW), a national probability study of children investigated for child maltreatment. The sample of 5,501 children (ages 0-14) was randomly selected from the families who entered the US child welfare system between October 1999 and December 2000. The analysis sample was restricted to 1,236 families in which caregivers were: (1) the alleged perpetrators of the child maltreatment at baseline (independently of substantiation status) and (2) the biological mothers (n = 1,212 or 98.6%), adoptive mothers (n = 17 or 1%), or stepmothers (n = 7 or 0.3%) of children not placed in out-of-home care.Results: Children of mothers physically abused by an intimate partner during the last 12 months or previously at the intake interview (44%) were twice as likely as children of mothers who had not experienced such violence to be rereported to CPS (29% vs. 14%, Odds Ratio = 2.0, 95% Confidence Interval = 1.1-3.4). Rereports occurred almost twice as quickly for children of mothers who experienced IPV compared to children of mothers who had not experienced IPV (Hazard Ratio = 1.9, 95% Confidence Interval = 1.1-3.0).Conclusions: The higher risk and speedier rereports of child maltreatment associated with intimate partner violence highlights the need for universal assessment and provision of services for IPV among families that are investigated by CPS.
