Simulating Conditions of Child Abuse in the Laboratory.
Vasta, Ross; Copitch, Phillip
Child Development, v52 n1 p164-70 Mar 1981
A child abuse analog was created by placing an adult in a frustrating teaching situation with a child. Failure was programed regardless of the adult's efforts. Intensity of responses to the child's signals of success and failure, particularly responses to signals of failure, increased without the adult's awareness. (Author/DB)
