本研究探讨了儿童性虐待的患病率在一个多阶段分层概率样本的非洲裔美国人和白人美国妇女。18至36岁。在洛杉矶县。样本的人口统计学特征按年龄划分。婚姻状况、教育和子女的存在。在248名女性样本中。154人（62%）在18岁之前至少报告过一次性虐待事件。57%的美国黑人女性和67%的美国白人女性曾遭受虐待。18岁以前的性虐待似乎是两个族裔群体同样关注的问题，尽管虐待事件发生的情况有细微的相似之处和不同之处，值得注意。强调需要查明造成过去40年来滥用行为普遍存在的当代因素。
This study examined the prevalence of child sexual abuse in a multi-stage stratified probability sample of Afro-American and white-American women. 18 to 36 years of age. in Los Angeles County. The sample ranged in demographic characteristics by age. marital status, education and the presence of children. Of the total sample of 248 women. 154 (62%) reported at least one incident of sexual abuse prior to age 18. with 57% of Afro-American women and 67% of white-American women having been abused. Sexual abuse before the age of 18 appears to he of equal concern for both ethnic groups, although similarities and differences in the circumstances under which abuse incidents occurred were subtle and deserve attention. The need for identifying contemporary factors that contribute to the prevalence of abuse over the past 40 years is stressed.
