| Abstrakt: | Research over the past 40 years has consistently found that teachers do not report all cases of suspected child abuse and neglect even though they see children on a regular basis. Much of the studies on under-reporting by teachers have focused on public school systems, and there is very little research regarding the impact of cultural values. To address this gap in the literature, the current study examined the determinants of decision-making when it comes to responding to child abuse among a sample of Armenian-American faculty members across several private schools, with a specific focus on cultural values. The results indicated that some cultural values may be important but so too were attitudes toward, and knowledge of, reporting laws. Implications for future research and training for private school teachers are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
