Abstract
Jon Conte was a pioneer in recognizing the importance of interpersonal violence and establishing the Journal of Interpersonal Violence in 1986. For this festschrift, authors were asked to identify a research question or questions that need to be addressed in understanding, preventing, and responding to interpersonal violence. I have chosen to focus on two questions that both deal with the impact of the sources of information used to understand the consequences of childhood maltreatment. The issue is that the sources of information may themselves influence study findings. In the context of existing research, two questions are addressed: (1) What explains race disparities in arrests for violence for Black and White maltreated children? and (2) How do the limitations of the accuracy of recall influence the results of studies under the umbrella of interpersonal violence and how do these limitations affect the interpretation of the results and implications drawn?
Jon Conte是认识到人际暴力重要性的先驱，并于1986年创办了《人际暴力杂志》。为了这个节日，作者被要求确定一个或多个研究问题，需要在理解、预防和应对人际暴力方面得到解决。我选择关注两个问题，这两个问题都涉及用于理解儿童虐待后果的信息来源的影响。问题是信息来源本身可能会影响研究结果。在现有研究的背景下，解决了两个问题：(1)如何解释黑人和白人受虐待儿童因暴力被捕的种族差异？(2)回忆准确性的限制如何影响人际暴力研究的结果，这些限制如何影响对结果的解释和得出的启示？
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Interpersonal Violence is devoted to the study and treatment of victims and perpetrators of interpersonal violence. It provides a forum of discussion of the concerns and activities of professionals and researchers working in domestic violence, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual assault, physical child abuse, and violent crime. With its dual focus on victims and victimizers, the journal will publish material that addresses the causes, effects, treatment, and prevention of all types of violence. JIV only publishes reports on individual studies in which the scientific method is applied to the study of some aspect of interpersonal violence. Research may use qualitative or quantitative methods. JIV does not publish reviews of research, individual case studies, or the conceptual analysis of some aspect of interpersonal violence. Outcome data for program or intervention evaluations must include a comparison or control group.
