Childhood sexual abuse is a traumatic life event that may cause psychiatric disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder and depression. During 2003-2004, 20 sexually abused children were referred to the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Clinic of Ege University in Izmir, Turkey. Two years later, the psychological adjustment of these children (M age = 9.4 years, SD = 3.63 years, range = 5 to 16 years) is evaluated. Semistructured interviews, a form for the sociodemographic characteristics, are used for evaluations by a child psychiatrist who is blind to the first evaluation. It is determined that sexually abused children have more psychiatric disorders within the first year than 2 years later. However, some behavior problems occur at both short-term and long-term follow-ups.
儿童期性虐待是一种创伤性的生活事件，可能导致创伤后应激障碍和抑郁症等精神疾病。2003年至2004年期间，20名遭受性虐待的儿童被转介到土耳其伊兹密尔艾杰大学儿童与青少年精神病学诊所。两年后，对这些儿童（平均年龄=9.4岁，标准差=3.63岁，年龄范围=5至16岁）的心理调适情况进行评估。由一位对首次评估不知情的儿童精神病医生采用半结构化访谈以及一份关于社会人口学特征的表格进行评估。结果发现，遭受性虐待的儿童在第一年出现的精神疾病比两年后更多。然而，在短期和长期随访中均出现了一些行为问题。
