借鉴以往关于亲密伴侣暴力、儿童虐待和非正式社会控制的研究，我们假设了儿童虐待严重程度与（1）邻居对亲密伴侣暴力的保护性非正式社会控制（ISC_IPV）、（2）亲密恐怖主义、（3）家庭秩序和（4）母亲在亲密关系中的权力之间的关系。在我们认为可能是第一次对尼泊尔父母身体虐待儿童的研究中，我们使用了三阶段聚类方法，在加德满都随机抽取了300个家庭。随机效应回归模型被用来检验研究假设。分析结果支持假设一和假设二，但有一个重要的警告。虽然观察到的（实际）保护性ISC_IPV与儿童虐待严重程度呈假设的负相关，但在我们的一个模型中，感知到的保护性ISC_IPV与儿童虐待严重程度呈正相关。模型阐明了保护性ISC_IPV的总体方向似乎是负面的（保护性的），但积极的发现对于研究和实践都很重要。一个显着的关系，家庭秩序和虐待儿童的严重程度，但方向是消极的，而不是积极的假设三。邻里研究和类型学研究IPV和儿童虐待的影响进行了讨论。(C)2014爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Drawing on previous research on intimate partner violence, child maltreatment, and informal social control, we hypothesized relationships between child abuse severity and (1) protective informal social control of intimate partner violence (ISC_IPV) by neighbors, (2) intimate terrorism, (3) family order, and (4) the power of mothers in intimate relationships. In what we believe may be a first study of physical child abuse by parents in Nepal, we used a three stage cluster approach to draw a random sample of 300 families in Kathmandu. Random effects regression models were used to test the study hypotheses. The analyses found support for hypotheses one and two, but with an important caveat. Although observed (actual) protective ISC_IPV had the hypothesized negative association with child abuse severity, in one of our models perceived protective ISC_IPV was positively associated with child abuse severity. The models clarify that the overall direction of protective ISC_IPV appears to be negative (protective), but the positive finding is important to consider for both research and practice. A significant relationship between family order and child abuse severity was found, but the direction was negative rather than positive as in hypothesis three. Implications for neighborhood research and typological research on IPV and child maltreatment are discussed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
