There is extensive literature on the links between poverty and physical discipline and maltreatment. After reading a recent NYT about the problem of income instability, I wondered if there is any literature examining links between income instability, physical discipline and physical maltreatment. 

Also on a related note, can anyone suggest literature on physical maltreatment among married African American parents? 

Thank you!
