Sexual Abuse in Childhood: Psychosocial Outcomes and Implications for Social Work Practice
Abstract
A study of the prevalence of serious sexual assualt in childhood (up to age 16) is reported in the context of a community mental health study in a random sample of 377 women in a large Canadian city. Twenty-two percent of women reported sexual abuse in childhoos. Sexually abused women were twice as likely to have poor mental health as women who were not abused. The implications are addressed for helping adults whose poor mental health reflects the complex interaction of negative childhood events, including sexual abuse.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
