Synopsis:

It is now commonly recognized that child abuse and neglect can be fully understood only through the use of longitudinal research methods--difficult, expensive, and time-consuming though their application may be. This book reviews the findings from current longitudinal research and also serves as an authoritative guide to the complex methodologic issues involved in conducting such studies.

About the Author:

Raymond H. Starr, Jr., a developmental psychologist, is an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He has been conducting research on maltreated children and their families for more than two decades. He is author of numerous publications in the field including the book, Child Abuse Prediction: Policy Implications. Formerly a Congressional Science Fellow of the Society for Research in Child Development/American Association for the Advancement of Science, he was also a founder and president of the National Down Syndrome Congress.
