Resumo

This thesis explored the relative utility of evolutionary and ecological theories to understand under which conditions children in non-biological families are most at risk of childmaltreatment.  The study revealed that single-mothers have complex needs and stressors, which may increase their vulnerability and impact on decisions made in selection of partners.
