An Inventory for the Identification of Child Abusers.

Milner, Joel S.; Wimberley, Ronald C.

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v35 n1 p95-100 Jan 1979

This article reports on the construction of a 60-item inventory for the identification of child abusers. A principal axis factoring with oblique promax rotations was performed to interpret the underlying dimensionality of the predictor items. Four dimensions were found: loneliness, rigidity, problems, and control. (Author/SJL)
