有儿童性虐待史的妇女(N = 221)参加了一项旨在测试预测成人/青少年性再次受害和攻击后功能的模型的研究。参与者完成了关于他们的性受害史,性侵犯后症状和归因以及自愿性行为的匿名问卷。反复受害被定义为经历过儿童性虐待和单独的青少年/成人受害事件。反复受害与经历过涉及身体接触的儿童性虐待有关,包括性交和/或渗透。反复受害的女性会更多地自责,报告更高水平的创伤后症状,并报告更多的高风险性行为。一个路径模型表明,再次受害和儿童性虐待之间的关系是由自责,创伤后症状,和双方同意的性活动介导的。研究结果表明,需要进一步研究再次受害问题,并提出预防性再次受害的干预领域。
Women with histories of child sexual abuse (N = 221) participated in a study designed to test a model for predicting adult/adolescent sexual revictimization and post-assault functioning. Participants completed anonymous questionnaires regarding their sexual victimization history, post-sexual assault symptoms and attributions, and consensual sexual behavior. Repeated victimization was defined as having experienced child sexual abuse and a separate incident of adolescent/adult victimization. Repeated victimization was associated with having experienced child sexual abuse involving physical contact, including intercourse and/or penetration. Women with repeated victimization engaged in more self-blame, reported higher levels of post-traumatic symptoms, and reported more high-risk sexual behavior. A path model was developed that indicated that the relationship between revictimization and child sexual abuse was mediated by self-blame, post-traumatic symptoms, and consensual sexual activity. The results suggest the need for further research on revictimization as well as suggesting areas for intervention to prevent sexual revictimization.
