This type of analysis evaluates the incidents of maltreatment recurrence (recidivism) among children involved with the organization. It would present the number of children for whom more than one report of maltreatment (e.g. physical abuse, neglect, etc.) occurred in a six month period from the initial report of maltreatment. Most organizations strive to reduce the recurrence of maltreatment for a child. This type of analysis would provide an analyst a view of the effectiveness of services and resources provided to the child/family by the organization and (potentially) allow identification of problematic areas of effectiveness.
