risk factors of future maltreatment



Listmembers,

I am interested in finding empirical research that indicates risk factors
(child, family, caretaker, environment) of future (further) maltreatment.
Does anyone know of any such studies?  I have found several articles
stating factors that caseworkers commonly consider when assessing risk.
For example, severity and frequency of past abuse, age of the child,
maternal behavior, etc.  Now, I want to go further and see if there are
studies that indicate the use of these factors are actually valid.  Any
help is appreciated!

THANKS,
Michelle
