Abstract

This research investigates the type of and extent to which additional problematic experiences and behaviors are associated with a history of both substance misuse and childhood sexual abuse. In a recent study of women undergraduate students, 30 years and older, 15 disclosed a history of problematic alcohol and/or drug use. Of these, 10 had experienced sexual trauma as children; five had not. This report compares these two subsamples with respect to problematic experiences and behavior. Implications for counseling and research are discussed.
