BENAVIDES DELGADO, Jacqueline  e  MIRANDA, Sandra. Critical attitude toward physical punishment in children victims of child maltreatement. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2007, vol.6, n.2, pp. 309-318. ISSN 1657-9267.

This research aims to comprehand the mechanisms that underlie the transmission of maltreatment from one generation to the other. The objective of this study was to determine if certain social actions of refusal toward the child abuse, like institutionalization, reinforce a critical attitude toward this practice. The sample was composed of 24 male institutionalized children and 17 not institutionalized children, with history of physical abuse. The results determined a significant difference p < 0.05 among the institutionalized children and those not institutionalized with regards their feelings of self-protection against the aggressions of parents and the knowledge that they had about their rights.

Palavras-chave : child maltreatment; violence cycle; intergenerational transmission of maltreatment.
