abstract="Account-making is a sociopsychological model that describes the recovery process after a traumatic event. This study examined the theory's utility in quantitative research using data from a large sample of men with histories of child sexual abuse (N = 487). The three aims of the study were (a) to describe how account-making concepts can be operationalized, (b) to explore the relationship between account-making and mental health, and (c) to suggest revisions to the theoretical structure of the model. Results suggest that account-making is a useful framework for research with trauma survivors and may be related to mental health. Suggestions for future research are provided.<p />",
