Abstract

Many symptoms and kinds of behavior have been reported as sequelae to sexual abuse in childhood. A hierarchical model is proposed that will help diagnosticians to integrate the child's symptomatology into their evaluations of possible sexual abuse. The relevance of the specific presentation of symptoms to treatment planning is discussed.
