TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Sex-typed role in male adolescent sexual abuse survivors JO - Journal of family violence A1 - Richardson, Melissa Frey A1 - Meredith, William A1 - Abbot, Douglas A. SP - 89 EP - 100 VL - 8 IS - 1 N2 - Confusion and conflicts regarding sexual identity have been identified by clinicians as sequelae of sexual abuse in male adolescents. The empirical evidence supporting this assertion is limited, however. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between sexual abuse of male adolescents and their sexual self-concept in comparison to other clinical and nonclinical adolescent populations. The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) was administered to 31 sexually abused male adolescents, 14 nonabused, psychiatrically treated male adolescents, and 35 nonabused, nonpsychiatric male adolescents. A significant difference in sex-typed roles was found between sexually abused male adolescents and nonabused, nonpsychiatric male adolescents.
