“…A few studies have found that physical and emotional abuse are associated with adult sexual risk behavior (e.g., Kang et al, 2002;Medrano & Hatch, 2005), but the literature on this relation is much less extensive than the literature on the relation between CSA and adult sexual risk behavior. Very few studies have considered the additive effects of multiple types of abuse on adult sexual risk behavior, perhaps because of the strong correlation between the different types of abuse, which makes it difficult to recruit an adequate sample size of individuals who experienced only one type of abuse.…”

“…Further research is needed before we can say with certainty whether gender acts as a moderator. We recommend that, where possible, researchers include both males and females in CSA research.To empirically test for a moderating effect of gender, researchers should include a CSA-bygender interaction term in their analyses.Effect of other types of abuse on adult sexual risk behavior-CSA is correlated with childhood physical abuse, as well as with other types of childhood abuse, neglect, and adverse experiences (Briere & Elliott, 2003;Dong, Anda, Dube, Giles, & Felitti, 2003;Dong et al, 2004;Kang, Deren, & Goldstein, 2002). However, the possibly additive effects of other types of abuse (in addition to CSA) on adult sexual risk behavior have rarely been studied.…”

“…Some researchers have combined individuals with physical and sexual abuse, or individuals with any type of abuse, into a single group, and compared them to nonabused individuals; abused individuals generally engaged in riskier sexual behaviors than nonabused individuals (e.g., Felitti et al, 1998;Widom & Kuhns, 1996). However, in these studies it is not clear whether both types of abuse are associated with adult sexual risk behavior, or whether the individuals who experienced CSA are driving this association.A few studies have found that physical and emotional abuse are associated with adult sexual risk behavior (e.g., Kang et al, 2002;Medrano & Hatch, 2005), but the literature on this relation is much less extensive than the literature on the relation between CSA and adult sexual risk behavior.

Childhood and adolescent sexual abuse (CSA) is associated with a wide variety of adverse psychological and health outcomes, including negative sexual health outcomes. In this paper, we review the literature investigating the relation between CSA and subsequent sexual risk behaviors among men and women. Previous research has found a relatively consistent association between CSA and higher rates of sexual risk behaviors, particularly sex trading, more sexual partners, and an earlier age of first intercourse. However, there are a number of limitations to this research, including lack of a consistent definition of CSA, failure to investigate gender as a moderator, and possible confounding of the CSA experience with some of the sexual behavior outcome variables. Further, although there appears to be an association between CSA and later sexual risk behavior, researchers have not established whether this association is causal. Suggestions for future research and implications for clinical practice are discussed.The association between childhood and adolescent sexual abuse (CSA) and adverse psychological functioning has been well-documented, in both literature reviews (e.g., Beitchman, Zucker, Hood, daCosta, & Akman, 1991;Beitchman et al., 1992) and metaanalyses (e.g., Jumper, 1995;Paolucci, Genuis, & Violato, 2001). Recently, researchers have also documented an association between CSA and adverse health outcomes, including sexual health outcomes (e.g., Bartholow et al., 1994;Senn, Carey, Vanable, Coury-Doniger, & Urban, 2006). However, few systematic reviews of this literature have been undertaken. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to review the literature investigating the relation between CSA and subsequent sexual risk behavior, and to provide researchers with directions for future studies in this area. In this paper, we first review how CSA has been defined, and then review measures used to assess CSA. Next, we briefly summarize the mental health outcomes of CSA. The bulk of the paper examines findings from previous studies investigating the association between CSA and subsequent sexual behavior. Finally, we conclude by suggesting directions for future studies, and discussing practice implications. Definition of CSAThe definition of CSA has varied widely across studies. First, researchers have used different age criteria for "childhood sexual abuse." Often, this term is used to refer to sexual abuse that Publisher's Disclaimer: This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication.

“…However, some studies showed that some factors may influence improvements in depressive symptoms for patients in MMT [23,24]. Dropouts in MMT, which have been showed to associate with more mental illness [25,26], may be the factor that may influence improvement in depressive symptoms. To our knowledge, however, there were few studies examining whether depressive symptoms improve during MMT in heroin users who were DAMA or involuntarily discharged.…”

Aim: Little is known about whether heroin-dependent individuals receiving methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) who were discharged involuntarily and against medical advice (DAMA) get benefits before they left. The aims of this 12-month follow-up study were to examine whether the effects of MMT on depressive symptoms, heroin dependence and quality of life (QOL) are different among the non-DAMA group, the DAMA group, and the involuntarily discharged group, as well as the time effect of receiving MMT on changes in these three outcome indicators. Method: A total of 266 individuals receiving MMT were divided into the non-DAMA group, the DAMA group, and the involuntarily discharged group. Participants were interviewed at baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months of treatment for levels of depressive symptoms, heroin dependence and QOL. Results: The levels of depressive symptoms, heroin dependence and QOL in all three groups improved after receiving MMT for 3 months and the improvement was maintained during the MMT period. There were no significant differences in the three outcome indicators among the three groups. Conclusion: The results support the concept that heroin-dependent individuals benefit from MMT, even if they do not want to stay in the program or drop out involuntarily.

“…SUD clients who are trauma survivors are an especially vulnerable population. Treatment dropout rates tend to be higher for trauma survivors (Odenwald & Semrau, 2013), specifi cally for individuals with a history of physical or sexual abuse (Claus & Kindleberger, 2002;Kang et al, 2002), compared with clients who have not experienced traumatic events. Nonetheless, interventions that specifi cally address trauma are associated with increased treatment retention (Amaro et al, 2007;Ouimette et al, 2003).…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) recommends a comprehensive treatment program for individuals with substance use disorder (SUD) in order to treat needs they often have in addition to their SUD. Specifi cally, NIDA suggests providing services related to the following issues: medical care, mental health care, HIV/ AIDS, child care, educational, vocational, family counseling, housing, transportation, fi nancial, and legal. By providing a comprehensive model that combines core and wraparound services, treatment centers can deliver a higher quality of treatment. In this article, we assessed the relationship between client characteristics and the availability of wraparound services in SUD treatment centers. Method: We combined two nationally representative samples of treatment centers and used a negative binomial regression and a series of logistic regressions to analyze the relationship between client characteristics and wraparound services. Results: On average, centers offered fewer than half of the wraparound services endorsed by NIDA. Our results indicated that client characteristics were signifi cantly related to the provision of wraparound services. Most notably, the proportion of adolescent clients was positively related to educational services, the proportion of female clients was positively related to child care, but the proportion of clients referred from the criminal justice system was negatively associated with the provision of multiple wraparound services. Conclusions: Our fi ndings have important implications for SUD clients and suggest that, although centers are somewhat responsive to their clients' ancillary needs, most centers do not offer the majority of wraparound services.
