abstract="In a quota sample of 150 individuals, equally divided among Chinese, Hispanics, and whites, it was found that the Chinese were more tolerant of parental conduct than the Hispanics and whites, and were less likely to ask for investigation by protective agencies in potential cases of child abuse and neglect. The Chinese attitude is explained in part by well-known features of traditional Chinese culture, such as filial piety and familism. In addition to contributing to a transcultural understanding of child mistreatment, the study calls for heightened sensitivity in approaching issues of abuse and neglect in minority groups.
