Examined whether the predominance of particular themes in maltreated preschoolers' stories about relationships is related to type of maltreatment they experienced. Found significant differences among the physically abused, sexually abused, neglected, and comparison subgroups with respect to the predominance of specific relationship themes in their stories.
