abstract="Attempted to develop a battery of questionnaires and demographic data capable of early identification of institutional caretakers with potential for abuse of a client. After an extensive literature review on institutional client abuse, it was determined that the Child Abuse Potential Inventory, Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire and a General Information Form would account for a significant amount of variance to discriminate an abusive employee from a matched non-abusive employee. The questionnaires were administered to 21 abusing and 21 matched non-abusing employees. A univariate analysis, multiple regression, and a discriminate function analysis revealed that 73% of the between-group variance was accounted for by 8 of the suggested variables. The sensitivity of these tests, the ability to identify correctly 21 known abusers, was 86%. The specificity, the ability to identify correctly 21 matched non-abusers, was 100%. The proportion of grouped cases correctly classified was 93%.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
