| Authors: | Van Eenwyk John R |
| Abstract: | Of 100 psychologists surveyed by K. S. Pope and T. Bajt (1988), 21% acknowledged having violated child abuse reporting laws, presumably in the interest of the therapeutic alliance with the abuser. However, experience in a program for survivors of torture shows that failure to report abuse may be antitherapeutic. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
