N2  - This study conducted an exploratory factor analysis and initial validation of Ruscio's (2001) parenting attitudes questionnaire (PAQ), which assessed parenting concerns among CSA survivors. CSA survivor mothers (N = 60) reported on their abuse experiences and completed the PAQ, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale, and subscales of the Parenting Stress Index and the Parent-Child Relationship Inventory. Three primary factors emerged: (a) concerns regarding the child's sexuality and safety, (b) boundary disturbances within the child-survivor relationship, and (c) lack of energy for parenting due to recovery issues. Concerns about safety and sexuality and lack of energy for parenting were robust predictors of parenting outcomes. Assessment of such concerns may facilitate discussion of the balance between recovery work and parenting challenges.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
