Abstract

In a longitudinal study in Sweden, whether people who have been abused or neglected by their parents in childhood are more prone to violence and mental illness in adulthood. Therefore this paper focuses on the relationship between childhood abuse or neglect and adult violence.

Subjects were male (n = 199), recruited from high-risk communities and grouped according to childhood abuse and neglect index variables, resulting in high (n = 110) and low victimization (n = 89) groups. In order to facilitate comparison and resolution, a comparison table is set for comparison, and the method of configuration frequency analysis (CFA) is used to determine its contingency.

Through the comparison of experimental data, it can be seen that children who are severely abused or neglected in childhood are more likely to produce extensive violence and higher PCL-R test scores in adulthood, and higher PCL-R scores will also lead to more extensive violence. Those who were abused or neglected in childhood, who were mild or none at all, showed mild {or no} violence. Thus, it can be concluded that there is a close relationship between PCL-R, the degree of childhood abuse or neglect and violence.
