Gender differences in jurors' perceptions of infanticide involving disabled and non-disabled infant victims
2011, Child Abuse and NeglectCitation Excerpt :There are at least five studies investigating gender differences in adults’ reactions to other forms of child abuse. Muller, Caldwell, and Hunter (1993) found that men were more likely than women to blame a child for the child's own physical abuse. Dukes and Kean (1989) found that women undergraduates rated vignettes depicting child psychological abuse, physical abuse, and neglect as more abusive than did men undergraduates.
