Ferguson, Kathleen S.; Dacey, Christine M.
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v21 n10 p941-52 Oct 1997
Women health care professionals reporting a history of childhood psychological maltreatment (n=55) were compared to a nonabused group (n=55) on three dimensions of anxiety, depression, and dissociation. A significant discriminant function using the three measures as predictor variables was able to correctly classify 74.5% of the abused participants and 89.1% of the nonabused group. (Author/DB)
