Cantrell, Peggy – Now and Then, 1991
Surveys of 433 college students and 258 high school students in Appalachia revealed rates of domestic violence similar to those found nationally. However, rates of parent-to-child violence were about 10 percent higher. Among 239 Appalachian adult women, 38 percent reported having at least 1 incestuous experience during childhood. (SV)
