| Child Abuse Potential Inventory | Child Abuse Potential Inventory used in this study was first developed in 1979 to determine the child abuse potential of adults towards children.

Remaining 6 scales (Stress scale, Unhappiness scale, Problems Related to Child and Self scale, Family-Related Problems and Problems Related to Others Scale measure factors related to abuse. Three scales, namely Lie Scale, Random Response Scale and Inconsistency Scale were designed to assess the validity of responses. This study is based on the Child Abuse Potential Inventory 'Abuse Scale'. The cut-off point for abuse scale is 215, but above 166 is considered dangerous. High scores in abuse scale indicate that the respondent has a high potential for child abuse. |
