Childhood Sexual Abuse: An Examination of Family Functioning.

Long, Patricia J.; Jackson, Joan L.

Journal of Interpersonal Violence, v9 n2 p270-77 Jun 1994

A sample of 80 college women reporting childhood sexual abuse and 92 failing to report sexual abuse were examined to investigate the patterns of family functioning and the occurrence of various patterns of abuse. Results indicated that victims and nonvictims were not evenly distributed across family types, and no significant relationships were evident. (JPS)
