Abstract

The current study explores the relationship between child neglect and intimate partner violence (IPV) in a longitudinal community sample of 1,740 families with young children, with a special focus on the association between specific typologies of both neglect behaviors and IPV. We focused on families followed across early childhood, because infants and toddlers are at the greatest risk of exposure to neglect (the most prevalent type of child maltreatment), and this period spanning the transition to parenthood presents heightened risk for IPV. We found evidence that coercive IPV is an important driver of the connections between IPV and subsequent neglect through affecting the mother’s well-being and ability to provide basic care and nurturance. Implications for intervention and future work addressing definitions and pathways to neglect are discussed.

NIS-4 estimated incidence of child maltreatment using two standards—Harm and Endangerment. The Endangerment standard is more inclusive. It includes any incidences that meet the Harm standard (an act or omission resulting in demonstrable harm to the child), where it was believed that the observed situation endangered the child, or where allegations of maltreatment were substantiated or indicated by Child Protective Services even if the child was not actually harmed.
