The analysis indicates a strong degree of consensus among the subjects regarding their evaluation of the seriousness of various kinds of child maltreatment. Several other conclusions of note include the observation that, while child maltreatment is ignored by Taiwanese society, such activities do occur. Chinese women express sharper disapproval of child maltreatment than men. The results also show that maltreatment victimization transcends social boundaries. While there are some associations between self-reported maltreatment and self-reported delinquency, they are neither strong nor extensive. These findings parallel those of the study using American students and suggest that maltreatment and delinquency may not be strongly correlated. 4 tables and 30 references (Author abstract modified)
