dc.description.notesA wide variety of studies have found a significant rate of co-occurrence of child maltreatment and domestic violence. Child maltreatment encompasses children witnessing violence, enduring violence and/or being neglected. Some of the characteristics that increase the risk of child maltreatment are young maternal age, family structure, low socio-economic status, stress, low social support and mental health issues. This US study analyses the correlation between the predictors of both domestic violence and child maltreatment and the actual presence or absence of maltreatment. Low-income families, mainly composed of African American single mothers, participated in the research. Participants were a subset of the LONGSCAN (Longitudinal Studies of Child Abuse and Neglect) sample. The findings reveal that the risk of maltreatment decreases when the caregiver leaves the abusive relationship. The caregiver’s history of victimisation, alcohol abuse and depression did not modify the results of maltreatment when combined with the effects of domestic violence.en
