โœฆ Synopsis


Groups of 18 physically abusive mothers, 19 neglecting mothers, and their matched controls were compared on depression and self-esteem. The controls were matched on maternal age, ethnic background, and years of education. The physically abusive mothers had significantly higher levels of depression and lower self-esteem than did the matched controls. The neglecting mothers had higher levels of depression, but not lower self-esteem than did the matched controls. The abusive and neglecting mothers had very similar levels of depression and dissimilar levels of self-esteem. Ameliorating these psychological factors when working with maltreating mothers and their children should be one emphasis of treatment intervention programs.
