Drummer Richard Allen of the heavy metal rock band Def Leppard was in critical condition Tuesday after surgeons sewed back his left arm severed in a New Year's Eve car wreck, hospital officials Fathers who develop a dose nurturing relationship with their infant daughters are unlikely to sexually abuse them later on, according to research by two University of Utah professors. In addition, sexual abuse of daughters by biological fathers, stepfathers and surrogate fathers could be significantly reduced if fathers were encouraged to play ' an active role in caring for their infants. Hildt Parker, associate professor of care after undergoing two operations. In the first, which lasted throughout the night, microsurgeons replaced his left arm, which was torn off at the shoulder when his Corvette Stingray left the road and social work, and Seymour Parker, overturned near Sheffield about 150 miles north of London. "Since the initial operation there had been severe bleeding and the exploratory operation was to investigate that," the spokesman said. professor of anthropology, say these results of their research can help identify potential abusers so they can seek help before the abuse begins. Conducted in the Salt Lake area, the Parker's research involved 54 sexually abusing fathers and 56 control fathers. Each time an incestuous father was chosen, a control father was chosen from the same social service agency or prison. Fathers with daughters in a similar age group were chosen for the study. Unlike most research done on incest, Hilda Parker said their study is the first to compare fathers who sexually abuse their daughters with fathers who do not abuse their daughters but have similar social and psychological problems. The study is also unique, she said, He said Allen's Dutch girlfriend, Milium Barendsen, who suffered head injuries in the crash, was in satisfactory condition. The spokesman said doctors did not yet know if the operation had been a success. "It will be some time yet before they actually know how successful it's been in terms of his regaining use of the arm," the hospital spokesman said.

Thirty of the 54 incestuous fathers were not present at all during the first three years of their child's development, while Parker said their research showed sexually abusing fathers often display inadequate bonding relationships with several others said they were present only part of the time. The Parkers believe intimate personal contact between a father and his infant daughter significantly suppresses sexual excitement. Sexual avoidance of this type is triggered by physical and psychological intimacy which does not develop if the father and daughter do not develop early bonds. "The way many people think revolves their own parents. Sexually abusing fathers, she said, were far more likely to report being abused or neglected as children than were the control fathers. "If people develop strong emotional relationships with their families as children, they also develop abilities to relate well and form bonds with others," she said. ; "If a person's family is not close, they do not develop these abilities and they show an inability to bond well with others."

"Our research shows that exactly the opposite is true." Parker said their research has some crucial social policy implications. To assure bonding at an that physicians early age, she recommends the Parkers hypothesize, often prevent normal emotional development and make it hard for them to relate to their daughters in a way that would prevent sexual abuse.
