Childhood maltreatment data were obtained from CYS records in Allegheny County, PA in 1993–1994 when the average age of the youngest cohort was 13 and oldest cohort was 18. The Maltreatment Classification System [29] was used to code the data according to timing, subtype, severity, and chronicity (coding agreement > 97%) [9].
