The relationship of childhood sexual abuse with later psychological and sexual adjustment in a sample of college women

Interpersonal functioning among women reporting a history of childhood sexual abuse: empirical findings and methodological issues

“…As shown in Table 1, relatively few of the studies covered in this review have attempted to account for the role of third variables, such as family environment. This trend is particularly troublesome in light of findings that the relationship between CSA and later individual psychopathology diminish or disappear altogether when such factors have been statistically controlled (Fromuth, 1986;Harter, Alexander, & Neimeyer, 1988;Nash, Husley, Sexton, Harralson, & Lambert, 1993).…”
