OBJECTIVES
To better understand the link between childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and adult sexual functioning and satisfaction, we examined cognitive differences between women with (N=128) and without (NSA, N=99) CSA histories.
METHODS
We used the Linguistic Inquiry Word Count, a computerized text analysis program, to investigate language differences between women with and without CSA histories when writing about their daily life (neutral essay) and their beliefs about sexuality and their sexual experiences (sexual essay).
RESULTS
Compared to NSA women, women with CSA histories used fewer first person pronouns in the neutral essay but more in the sexual essay, suggesting women with CSA histories have greater self-focus when thinking about sexuality. Women who reported CSA used more intimacy words and more language consistent with psychological distancing in the sexual essay than did NSA women. Use of positive emotion words in the sexual essay predicted sexual functioning and satisfaction in both groups.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings support the view that language use differs in significant ways between women with and without sexual abuse histories, and that these differences relate to sexual functioning and satisfaction.
目的
为了更好地理解儿童期性虐待（CSA）与成人性行为和满意度之间的联系，我们研究了有（N=128）和无（NSA，N=99）CSA 病史的女性之间的认知差异。
方法
我们使用语言探究词汇计数（Linguistic Inquiry Word Count），一种计算机化的文本分析程序，在女性撰写日常生活（中性文章）和她们对性和性经验的信念（性文章）时，研究有和无 CSA 病史的女性之间的语言差异。
结果
与 NSA 女性相比，有 CSA 病史的女性在中性文章中使用的第一人称代词较少，但在性文章中使用的较多，这表明有 CSA 病史的女性在思考性时更关注自我。报告 CSA 的女性在性文章中使用了更多的亲密词汇和更多与心理距离相关的语言，而 NSA 女性则较少使用。性文章中积极情绪词汇的使用预测了两组女性的性功能和满意度。
结论
这些发现支持这样一种观点，即有和无性虐待病史的女性之间的语言使用存在显著差异，并且这些差异与性功能和满意度有关。
