Leitenberg, Harold; And Others
Child Abuse and Neglect: The International Journal, v16 n3 p399-407 1992
Methods of coping with childhood sexual abuse were retrospectively studied with 54 adult women who had been sexually abused in childhood. "Denial" and "emotional repression" were the coping methods most commonly employed. Analysis suggested that avoidant/emotion suppressing strategies were associated with poorer adult psychological adjustment. (Author/DB)
