  abstract: In order to more thoroughly examine the relationship phics.
  abstract: between child maltreatment and subsequent delinquency,
  abstract: this study examines the individual effects of child
  abstract: abuse and child neglect on juvenile delinquency. A
  abstract: sample of 908 maltreated children is compared to a
  abstract: control group matched on age, sex, race, and SES.
  abstract: Using tobit analysis to account for bias due to left-
  abstract: censoring of the dependent variable, the analysis
  abstract: suggests that, controlling for race and gender, the
  abstract: maltreated youth are more delinquent than
  abstract: youth in the control group. When the elects of abuse
  abstract: and neglect are analyzed separately, the models
  abstract: provide evidence that neglect has a stronger elect
  abstract: than abuse on delinquency. In addition, youth with
  abstract: multiple instances of maltreatment were found to be
  abstract: more delinquent than youth with only one recorded
  abstract: instance. The models also suggest that maltreatment
  abstract: has a larger impact on primary delinquency as compared
  abstract: to secondary delinquency. Finally, race conditions the
  abstract: elect of maltreatment on delinquency, such that
  abstract: maltreatment had a more detrimental elect on minority
  abstract: subjects than whites. The current endings provide
  abstract: support for social control theory and general strain
  abstract: theory as theoretical linkages through which
  abstract: maltreatment influences delinquency. Social learning
  abstract: theory, or the modeling of parental behavior by the
  abstract: child subjects, was not found to be a primary
  abstract: theoretical mechanism through which maltreatment
  abstract: increases general delinquency.
