The Relationship between Sibling Maltreatment and College Students' Sense of Well-Being
Morrill-Richards, Mandy; Leierer, Stephen J.
Journal of College Counseling, v13 n1 p17-30 Spr 2010
Empirical research on sibling abuse has been overwhelmingly absent from the professional literature. This exploratory study used a survey instrument to investigate the question of whether the experience of sibling abuse influences the sense of well-being in college students. A linear multiple regression analysis indicated that experience with sibling abuse, either as a survivor or as a perpetrator, does have an impact on perception of well-being. Implications of these findings for future research are discussed. (Contains 2 tables.)
