Abstract
The clinical‐research literature relating to the abused child is critically reviewed. Included are demographic and epidemiological studies, behavioral studies, and studies of the cognitive/intellectual functioning of these children. Research which suggests that characteristics of the child contribute to abuse is also presented, along with suggestions for further research and prevention/treatment.Keywords
