“…In contrast, only 3% of the CG reported this (p = 0.001). This corresponds to the results of studies which investigated the influence of abuse severity on later behavioral abnormalities and, according to the groupings also used in this study, found a steady increase in frequency of psychological symptoms and social problems from group 0 to 3 [29,30]. Here it is argued that the interaction of several risk factors crucially contributes to a gradual deterioration of the resilience of the children and adolescents involved, making it more difficult to prevent later psychological disturbances.…”

The results of this study provide evidence for the importance of psychosocial risks in childhood for aggressive behavior in adolescence. This study demonstrated that aggressive adolescents differed from a nonaggressive control group in an increased exposure to prior psychotraumatic events, such as sexual abuse (tendency), physical abuse, and broken homes. However, in predicting later aggressive behavior, long-term and chronically effective negative living conditions seem of greater importance. Parenting behavior which includes harsh punishment and emotional rejection as well as separation of the parents early in life are particularly important factors. Whereas aggressive girls do not differ from the nonaggressive control group in terms of self-reported mental health, the aggressive boys reported more attention deficits, depression, anxiety, delinquency, and social problems.

“…Furthermore, associations have been found between childhood sexual abuse and sleeping disorders, excessive distrust, borderline personality disorder, dissociative disorders, and psychotic symptoms (Boon and Draijer, 1993;Breyer et al, 1987;Kihlstrom et al, 1993;Surrey, et al, 1990). Various studies provide evidence that the effects of childhood sexual abuse depend on individual characteristics of the victims and interpersonal factors at the age of the abuse and later in life (Finkelhor, 1990;Russell, 1986).…”

“…There is abundant evidence that victims of childhood sexual abuse are highly at risk of developing physiological and psychological problems (Beitchman et al, 1991;Briere and Runtz, 1988;Brown and Anderson, 1991;Browne and Finkelhor, 1986;Feinauer, 1989;Lange et al, 1995;Palmer et al, 1993;Russell, 1986;Surrey et al, 1990;Williams, 1993;Wozencraft et al, 1991). A review by Finkelhor and Browne (1988) on the long term effects of childhood sexual abuse demonstrated increased risk of sexual disorders, depression, anxiety disorders, auto-mutilation, alcohol-and substance abuse, eating disorders, feelings of isolation and stigmatization, deficiencies in self-esteem, anger towards parents, and prostitution.…”

“…For example, Moeller, Bachman, and Moeller (1993) surveyed 668 women and found that 35.6% reported experiencing both CSA and CPA. Surrey, Swett, Michaels, and Levin (1990) found an even higher cooccurrence of 70% for both CSA and CPA. Similarly high cooccurrence rates have been identified by Chu and Dill (1990), Kirby, Chu, and Dill (1993), and Swett and Halpert (1993), who found rates of 66, 82, and 83%, respectively, in their adult samples.…”

Symptoms and long‐term outcomes for children who have been sexually assaulted

Violent behaviors by and toward children have become an increasing concern within the American school system, with a good deal of energy devoted to developing profiles about which children are likely to exhibit these behaviors (Goldstein & Huff, 1993). Unfortunately, much less publicity has been devoted toward children who are sexually abused, despite the fact that over 300,000 children and adolescents are sexually abused annually in this country (National Center of Child Abuse and Neglect, 1996). As such, this figure reflects about a 600% increase in actual reported cases since 1980 (Burgdoff, 1980). These data suggest that a large number of school‐aged children are experiencing this kind of personal assault and professional educators are likely to encounter these children in the routine course of the educational process. This article provides a summary of the issues involved in the determination of sexual assault against a child and reviews the empirical literature describing the symptoms which may be manifested by a child who has been sexually abused. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
