RE: economy and child maltreatment - Citation



Krugman, R., Lenherr, M., Betz, L., Fryer, E. (1986)  The relationship between unemployment and physical abuse of children.  Child Abuse and Neglect. 10(3), 415-418

In my view, one of the neater short articles (4 pgs) ever done.  It tracks correlation between physical abuse reports and unemployment over time and shows a strong relationship.  A nice methodological model for what can be done with some simple facts, a quick analysis and a practically relevant research question.
