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.
