Banyard, Victoria L.; Williams, Linda M.; Siegel, Jane A.
Journal of Child Sexual Abuse, v11 n3 p19-48 2002
Study examined risk factors related to re-traumatization in women sexually abused in childhood. Eighty women were interviewed once in childhood, twice in early adulthood. Risk factors were measured at second interview and used to predict reported trauma exposure between interviews two and three. Some factors (e.g. homelessness, depression) were predictive of re-traumatization risk; social support satisfaction was a protective factor. (Contains 75 references and 6 tables.) (ADT)
