Alcohol use is related to child physical abuse, although little is known about gender-specific risks factors. This study examines the relationships between alcohol outlets, context-specific drinking, dose-response drinking and child physical abuse for mothers and fathers.
Telephone interviews were conducted with 1,973 female and 1,050 male respondents in 50 California cities. Weighted negative binomial models were used to calculate the frequency of physical abuse in the past year.
Drinking more often at restaurants was related to higher frequency of physical abuse for fathers, while mothers who drank more frequently at bars and parties used physical abuse more often. There were no significant dose-response drinking relationships for fathers. Drinking higher amounts at bars, parties, and restaurants was associated with less frequent physical abuse for mothers.
Our findings suggest that a focus on drinking contexts may reveal heightened risk for many mothers who do not consume large amounts of alcohol.
饮酒与儿童身体虐待有关,尽管对于特定性别的风险因素知之甚少。本研究考察了售酒场所、特定情境饮酒、剂量反应饮酒与父母对儿童身体虐待之间的关系。
对加利福尼亚州50个城市的1973名女性和1050名男性受访者进行了电话访谈。采用加权负二项模型计算过去一年中身体虐待的频率。
父亲在餐馆饮酒频率越高,身体虐待频率越高,而在酒吧和聚会上饮酒更频繁的母亲更常实施身体虐待。父亲不存在显著的剂量反应饮酒关系。母亲在酒吧、聚会和餐馆饮酒量越大,身体虐待频率越低。
我们的研究结果表明,关注饮酒情境可能会揭示出许多饮酒量不大的母亲面临的更高风险。
