The implications are as follows. First, the child protection system, which operates as a child abuse reporting system, should be expanded to a preventive support system. Second, it is necessary to expand monitoring by establishing an early warning system between networks in order to establish a support system for potentially at-risk children.

This study examined the co-occurrence of child maltreatment and domestic violence in South Korea, using the administrative data from Korean Child Protection Services. Existing literature showed that the co-occurrence rate was high and that the co-occurrence was important in prevention and intervention for child maltreatment. However, few studies have investigated the co-occurrence of child maltreament and domestic violence in South Korea. None of the studies have examined the co-occurrence from the perspective of child protective services. This study analyzed the rate of co-occurrence among abusive families involved with Korean Child Protective Services and examined the relationship between domestic violence and child maltreatment. Results showed that 21.4% of the abusive families had also experienced domestic violence. Various characteristics(i.e., detailed abuse characteristics, psychosocial characteristics of perpetrators) differed between co-occurrence families and maltreatment-only families. Domestic violence was a significant predictor of child maltreatment, but the detailed relationships differed according subtypes of maltreatment. Based on the results, implications for theory and service integration between services for domestic violence victims and child protective services were discussed.
