Ethnicity, Culture, and Child Maltreatment
Increasingly, child maltreatment research has begun to address ethnicity and culture in both empirical studies and theoretical articles. Despite the expansion of these efforts, cross‐cultural research in child maltreatment has raised more questions than it has answered; and it has highlighted the elusiveness of culture‐specific constructs to scientific study. Research to date has been hampered by several challenges including the failure to disentangle ethnicity and culture. In this article, we provide a review of research in this area and offer a critique and recommendations for enhancing the study of the role of culture and ethnicity in child maltreatment.
