Child Abuse Potential Inventory and Parenting Behavior: Relationships with High-Risk Correlates.

Haskett, Mary E.; And Others

Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v19 n12 p1483-95 Dec 1995

This study examined the construct validity of the Child Abuse Potential Inventory by comparing 41 maltreating and high-risk parents' CAP Inventory abuse scores to their behavior during observed interactions with their children. Correlational analyses revealed that CAP Inventory scores and observed parenting style yielded highly related findings though different patterns of relationships to risk correlates. (Author/DB)
