Re: differential effects of abuse

["sarah webb" <s.webb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In reply to Deanna Perez's request for differential outcomes, there is
reference regarding extent of re-abuse within different ethnic communities
in ISPCAN's journal, 'CHILD ABUSE & NEGLECT'  Vol 23 no 7 1999 by J.Fluke et
al, in an excellent article, 'Recurrence of maltreatment'.

Subject: differential effects of abuse


>Hello.
>I am hoping someone can provide some guidance... Does anyone know of
research that has examined ethnic differences in outcomes for abused
children?  That is to say, is there any reason to believe that experiencing
abuse as a Hispanic/African-American/Asian/etc. will be any different, and
therefore have different effects, than the experiences of Whites?  I would
greatly appreciate if anyone has citations they can pass along.  Thank you.
