This study examined the associations between childhood physical punishment or maltreatment and partnership outcomes to age 30, based on data from the Christchurch Health and Development Study. "These findings suggest that increasing exposure to childhood physical punishment or maltreatment is associated with impaired partnership outcomes: more negative partner relations, increased reports of a partner with social adjustment problems, and higher levels of interpartner violence." (from the abstract). Record #4611
