This study examined the role of residential and school mobility as a mediator between child maltreatment and academic outcomes. Using a sample of 711 maltreated and nonmaltreated children ranging from 5 to 15 years old matched on gender, grade, school, and socioeconomic status, path analytic techniques were employed to assess direct and indirect effects of maltreatment on recent achievement test scores, current grades, and grade repetitions. The results indicated that mobility did help account for the effects of maltreatment on each of the outcomes. For grades in English/reading, 32.7% of the effect of maltreatment was accounted for by amount of mobility, while for test scores and grade repetitions the numbers were 14.6% and 19.1%, respectively.
本研究考察了居住和学校变动在儿童虐待与学业成绩之间的中介作用。以711名年龄在5至15岁之间的受虐待和未受虐待儿童为样本,这些儿童在性别、年级、学校和社会经济地位方面进行了匹配,采用路径分析技术来评估虐待对近期成绩测试分数、当前成绩和留级情况的直接和间接影响。结果表明,变动确实有助于解释虐待对各项结果的影响。对于英语/阅读成绩,虐待影响的32.7%可由变动量来解释,而对于测试分数和留级情况,这一比例分别为14.6%和19.1%。
