  • Title: Parenting in females exposed to intimate partner violence and childhood sexual abuse.
    Author: Jaffe AE, Cranston CC, Shadlow JO.
    Journal: J Child Sex Abus; 2012; 21(6):684-700. PubMed ID: 23194141.
    Abstract:
    Child sexual abuse and intimate partner violence may have a significant impact on parenting. The current study expands on existing research by examining the effects of child sexual abuse and intimate partner violence on parenting styles and parenting self-efficacy. In women from a parenting intervention program (n = 20), child sexual abuse was related to lower parenting self-efficacy and more permissive parenting. In women at a domestic violence shelter (n = 45), child sexual abuse was related to current sexual coercion of the partner, and authoritative parenting was related to higher parenting self-efficacy. These results indicate that having a history of child sexual abuse should be taken into consideration when dealing with mothers in violent relationships.
