Abstract | This study examined reabuse rates across a 5-year follow-up period in 304 children admitted to a hospital-based child abuse assessment unit. A 16.8 percent incidence of reabuse was found, with the greatest risk occurring during the 2 years immediately following a discharge diagnosis of maltreatment. Neglect was the most frequent type of reabuse. Poverty factors were also associated with reabuse. (DB) |
