This study examined the relationship between receipt of child care subsidies and child maltreatment investigations in a sample of low‐income mothers in Illinois. We expected that receiving child care subsidies would have a protective effect on child maltreatment risk and therefore decrease the likelihood of child protective services investigations. Using structural equation modelling, we tested the...

Using data from age 3 of the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, the current study explores the complex relationships between U.S. childcare subsidies and neglect. Specifically, the study examines two research questions: (i) Are U.S. childcare subsidies associated with self‐reported neglect among low‐income mothers? (ii) What individual types of self‐reported neglect are significantly reduced...

Work Outcomes for Mothers Experiencing Intimate Partner Violence: the Buffering Effect of Child Care Subsidy

Kathryn Showalter, Kathryn Maguire-Jack, Mi-Youn Yang, Kelly M. Purtell

Journal of Family Violence > 2019 > 34 > 4 > 299-308

Mothers who experience intimate partner violence (IPV) are at increased risk for experiencing workplace instability in the form of absence from paid employment and job loss. In a cross-sectional study, we investigate if experiences of IPV inhibit work stability among low-income women as well as if the receipt of child care subsidies has a moderating effect on the relationship. Using data from the...

Intersections of individual and neighborhood disadvantage: Implications for child maltreatment

Kathryn Maguire-Jack, Sarah A. Font

Children and Youth Services Review > 2017 > 72 > C > 44-51

Parenting behaviors are influenced by numerous factors, including individual, family, and community contexts. Ecological systems theory suggests that these systems as well as interactions among the systems coalesce to influence the parent/child relationship in multiple ways. When challenges exist within and across these systems, child abuse and neglect can occur. While a significant body of research...

Mi-Youn Yang, Kathryn Maguire-Jack

Children and Youth Services Review > 2016 > 67 > C > 20-26

Approximately 80% of the over 3 million reports of child maltreatment each year are due to concerns of child neglect (United States Department of Health and Human Services [USDHHS], 2015). The literature is growing, but relatively little is known about the predictors of the subtypes of neglect. The current study uses data from the Illinois Families Study to run fixed effects logistic regression models...

Pathways from neighborhood to neglect: The mediating effects of social support and parenting stress

Kathryn Maguire-Jack, Xiafei Wang

Children and Youth Services Review > 2016 > 66 > C > 28-34

Neighborhood social cohesion relates to common bonds and feelings of trust between neighbors. The everyday demands of caregiving can take a toll on parents and increase their levels of stress and in some cases can lead to maltreatment. The current study seeks to understand how the support networks of parents relate to child maltreatment. Specifically, using structural equation modeling path analysis...

Child Abuse & Neglect > 2016 > 52 > C > 29-37

Relations between parents within a neighborhood have the potential to provide a supportive environment for healthy and positive parenting.

Tori Negash, Kathryn Maguire-Jack

Journal of Family Violence > 2016 > 31 > 5 > 557-565

Despite wide recognition that increased social support is associated with positive parenting behaviors, there is limited understanding regarding the mechanisms through which the neighborhood context can increase or hinder social connections. In a sample of 1,050 parents in Franklin County, OH, this study examines the role of availability of social services in child maltreatment. Through negative binomial...

Pathways from childhood abuse and other adversities to adult health risks: The role of adult socioeconomic conditions

Sarah A. Font, Kathryn Maguire-Jack

Child Abuse & Neglect > 2016 > 51 > C > 390-399

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), including child abuse, have been linked with poor health outcomes in adulthood. The mechanisms that explain these relations are less understood. This study assesses whether associations of ACEs and health risks are mediated by adult socioeconomic conditions, and whether these pathways are different for maltreatment than for other types of adversities. Using the...

Sarah A. Font, Kathryn Maguire-Jack

Child Abuse & Neglect > 2015 > 49 > Complete > 50-62

Decision-making in the child protection system is influenced by multiple factors; agency and geographic contexts, caseworker attributes, and families’ unique circumstances all likely play a role. In this study, we use the second cohort of the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being to explore how these factors are associated with two key case decisions—substantiation and removal to out-of-home...
