摘要:Abstract This study investigated the young people attitudes and awareness about child abuse. Seventy university students (20 males, 50 females) completed the researcher-made questionnaire. The results revealed that the levels of education of participants were positively associated with their reaction toward child abuse as well as awareness about child abuse. The birth order of participants was significantly associated with being beaten. This is notable that most of the participants recognized beating was an acceptable form of discipline and informing family as the best coping way toward child abuse. Results and implications are discussed.
