abstract="Research on childhood sexual abuse (CSA) has focused on adult revictimization and outcomes. This article examines the rate of child maltreatment revictimization among male and female children reported to child protective services for CSA and whether revictimization impacts outcomes. Using longitudinal administrative data, Cox regressions were used to examine relationships between initial report of CSA, maltreatment revictimization, and adolescent outcomes among children from poor and non-poor families. Despite no significant differences in CSA rates between poor and non-poor families, poor CSA victims were significantly more likely to have re-reports for maltreatment. Children with multiple reports were more likely to have negative outcomes. Interventions for CSA survivors should focus on preventing maltreatment recurrence generally and not ignore needs of male victims.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
