Text

Questions assessing CPA using behavioral descriptions of experiences consistent with physical abuse were asked by the interviewer using the questions from the SSAGA (see Table 1). These questions do not require the respondent to label their experience as CPA or traumatic. For this study, CPA criteria were met if the respondent endorsed experiencing these “often” for either parent.
