Relationship between childhood socioeconomic position and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs): a systematic review.

TL;DR: Lower childhood SEP is associated with a greater risk of ACEs/maltreatment, and any policy approach that ignores the socioeconomic context to ACEs is therefore flawed.

Child maltreatment risk as a function of poverty and race/ethnicity in the USA

TL;DR: The data suggest that Black/ white disproportionality in official maltreatment is largely driven by Black/White differences in poverty, and support the presence of a 'Hispanic paradox' inofficial maltreatment, where Hispanics have lower risks compared with similarly economically situated Whites and Blacks.

Child maltreatment in autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability: results from a population-based sample.

TL;DR: M maltreatment was associated with higher likelihood of aggression, hyperactivity, and tantrums for children with ASD and/or ID, and empirical-supported assessment and intervention approaches for identifying and addressing traumatic stress related to maltreatment in ASD are urgently needed.

Generalized Linear Models

A Modified Poisson Regression Approach to Prospective Studies with Binary Data

TL;DR: Results from a limited simulation study indicate that this approach is very reliable even with total sample sizes as small as 100, and the method is illustrated with two data sets.
