Child Maltreatment 1 Running head: CHILD MALTREATMENT AND MDD IN LATINO STUDENTS The Relationship among Child Maltreatment, Parental Bonding, and a Lifetime History of Major Depressive Disorder in Latino College Students

چکیده
This study examined the relationship among child maltreatment, parental bonding, and a lifetime history of major depressive disorder (MDD) in a sample of 119 Latino students. Forty five students reported a lifetime history of MDD and 74 reported not having a lifetime history of MDD. The results indicated that emotional abuse and maternal overprotection were significantly associated with having a lifetime history of MDD. The findings support the importance of examining these factors among depressed Latinos. Future research should continue to explore both the role of child maltreatment and parental bonding in relation to a lifetime history of MDD in this population.
