TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Toward a treatment-relevant typology of child abuse families JO - Child welfare A1 - Bowdry, C. SP - 333 EP - 340 VL - 69 IS - 4 N2 - Six types of physical maltreatment of children emerged during a 12-year period of a specialized physical abuse protective services program in Dallas, Texas. Criteria for identification of each type and recommendations for case management and treatment are presented in this paper. The typology is a broad framework; overlapping may occur in some instances. It is used as a means of differentiating between milder and more severe forms of physical child abuse.
