摘要
This study evaluated whether a history of sexual abuse could differentiate negative health consequences among men who have sex with men (MSM; N = 148) enrolled in a risk counseling program. More than half (51.4%) reported an experience of sexual abuse. A history of sexual abuse was associated with increased psychological distress, increased rates of alcohol (AOR = 2.91; p < .01) and/or drug abuse (AOR = 2; p < .01) treatment, increased risk of housing instability (AOR = 2.13; p < .05), and increased risk for suicidality (AOR = 4.3; p < .001). Findings demonstrate that screening for sexual abuse may be useful in determining the service needs of high-risk MSM.
