abstract="This paper reports data from a research study that had as its specific goals to improve our understanding of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) among a protective service population. The sample was drawn from a large California county and consisted of 445 children chosen at random from among all children who had a newly substantiated abuse case. Forty-three percent of children came from families with an indication of IPV. The IPV victims were more likely than families without IPV to have new referrals for abuse. Findings suggest that either the chronic nature of IPV makes new referrals for abuse more likely because mandated reporters intervene with IPV, or that families experiencing IPV represent a subgroup among CPS families with particularly severe problems.<p />",
