The purpose of this study was to undrstand the emotional and behavioral sequela in the abused child caused by physical abuse. To achieve the purpose, the emotional and behavioral differences between not or less abused children group and severely abused children group were compared in this study. The subjects in this study were 61 male children who were selected among children under custody at 4 child-welfare institutions in Seoul.
A violence scale in CTS(Conflict Tactics Scale) developed by Straus(1979) was modified and used as a research tool to measure the children´s physical abuse. The Korean text of Child Behavior Checklist(CBCL) was also used to measure the emotional and behavioral problems of abused children. The results of this study were as follows
1) The total scores of behavioral problems in physically abused children were significantly higher than those in control group.
2) The comparison of behavioral problems has shown significant differences between two groups in social withrawal, somatic symptom, emotional disturbance, obsessive-depressive behavior, hyperactivity and psychotic-sexual factors. However, there were no differences in aggressive and delinquent factors.
The above results presents us the profile of children´s emotional and behavioral problems caused by physical abuse, and can be used as a framework for the treatment, protection and preservation of abused children in the course of social work practice.
