INTRODUCTION
Our study examines the frequency of joint investigations by child protection workers and the police in sexual abuse investigations compared to other maltreatment types and the association of child-, caregiver-, maltreatment- and investigation-related characteristics in joint investigations, focussing specifically on investigations involving sexual abuse.
METHODS
We analyzed data from the Canadian Incidence Study of Reported Child Abuse and Neglect-2008 using logistic regression.
RESULTS
The data suggest that sexual abuse (55%), and then physical abuse, neglect and emotional maltreatment, are most often co-investigated. Substantiation of maltreatment, severity of maltreatment, placement in out-of-home care, child welfare court involvement and referral of a family member to specialized services was more likely when the police were involved in an investigation.
CONCLUSION
This study adds to the limited information on correlates of joint child protection agency and police investigations. Further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of these joint investigations.
简介
我们的研究考察了儿童保护工作者和警方在性虐待调查中与其他虐待类型的联合调查频率，以及在联合调查中儿童、照顾者、虐待和调查相关特征的关联，特别关注涉及性虐待的调查。
方法
我们使用逻辑回归分析了 2008 年加拿大报告的儿童虐待和忽视发生率研究的数据。
结果
数据表明，性虐待（55%），其次是身体虐待、忽视和情感虐待，最常被共同调查。当警方参与调查时，虐待的证实、虐待的严重程度、安置在家庭以外的照顾、儿童福利法院的介入以及向专门服务机构转介家庭成员的情况更有可能发生。
结论
本研究增加了关于儿童保护机构和警方联合调查相关因素的有限信息。需要进一步研究以确定这些联合调查的效果。
