Although child sexual abuse (CSA) is recognized as a serious violation of human well-being and of the law, no community has yet developed mechanisms that ensure that none of their youth will be sexually abused. CSA is, sadly, an international problem of great magnitude that can affect children of all ages, sexes, races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic classes. Upon invitation, this current publication aims at providing a brief overview of a few lessons we have learned from CSA scholarly research as to heighten awareness of mental health professionals on this utmost important and widespread social problem. This overview will focus on the prevalence of CSA, the associated mental health outcomes, and the preventive strategies to prevent CSA from happening in the first place.
尽管儿童性虐待（CSA）被认为是严重侵犯人类福祉和法律的行为，但没有一个社区制定出确保其青少年不受性虐待的机制。可悲的是，CSA 是一个严重的国际性问题，可能影响到所有年龄段、性别、种族、族裔和社会经济阶层的儿童。应邀请，本出版物旨在简要概述我们从 CSA 学术研究中吸取的一些经验教训，以提高心理健康专业人员对这一极其重要和普遍的社会问题的认识。本综述将重点介绍 CSA 的流行率、相关的心理健康后果，以及预防 CSA 发生的策略。
