Reiniger, Anne; And Others
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v19 n1 p63-70 Jan 1995
A survey was conducted of 1,368 professionals in a course on identifying and reporting child abuse and maltreatment. Substantial numbers of professionals had limited knowledge of indicators of abuse and even less knowledge about legal obligations and procedures for reporting. Teachers were no more knowledgeable about indicators of abuse than were other professionals. (Author/JDD)
