Canton-Cortes, David, and Jose Canton. "Coping with Child Sexual Abuse among College Students and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: The Role of Continuity of Abuse and Relationship with the Perpetrator." Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal 34.7 (2010): 496-506. ERIC. EBSCO. Web. 18 Nov. 2010. The article dealt with the effects that child sexual abuse had on people later on in their lives, specifically during their college years. Coping strategies were looked at to see if there was a connection between the abuse done and the relationship that the attacker had with the victim. Also, the effects of coping strategies of post-traumatic stress disorder between child sexual abuse victims and non-child sexual abuse victims were observed. After surveys were taken, participants who had been victims of child sexual abuse showed much higher post-traumatic stress scores and lower approach coping strategies. Child sexual abuse is a high-risk experience that can affect the victim's coping strategies and lead to post-traumatic stress. Child sexual abuse survivors are encouraged to go through therapy to help develop usefeul approach strategies.

O'Leary, Patrick, Carol Coohey, and Scott D. Easton. "The Effect of Severe Child Sexual Abuse and Disclosure on Mental Health during Adulthood." Journal of Child Sexual Abuse 19.3 (2010): 275-289. ERIC. EBSCO. Web. 18 Nov. 2010. The article deals with the relationship of severe child sexual abuse and mental health symptoms during the adult years. Respondants of the survey taken showed that in the thirties and fourties that if they were attacked by more than one abuser and did not discuss their abuse within one year of the attack they had a greater number of mental health symptoms. The clients who are at higher risk of mental health symptoms should be assessed by professionals.

This study dealt with the long-term effects of different kinds of child abuse. Nearly four hundred college students studied many aspects of child abuse history. What these students found was that when abuse is present, it is typical for more than one kind to be used. Every type of abuse was followed by certain symptoms, and whoever experienced more than one kind of abuse experienced numerous symptoms. Therefore, it is essential to study all types of abuse when doing research.

They answered questions that dealt with their experiences and what they witnessed as children and if they have been affected by it both physically and psychologically.
