Child Abuse and Neglect: The International Journal, v16 n1 p19-29 1992
Thirty nonparent adults were classified as high or low on the Child Abuse Potential Inventory. Their heart rate and skin conductance were assessed as they listened to audiotapes of "normal" phonated infant cries and high-pitched, hyperphonated cries, and subjects rated the cries. Marginal differences were found between groups. (Author/BRM)
