Although numerous studies document a link between child sexual abuse and later sexual assault perpetration in men, little research has examined why this relationship exists. One potential mechanism may be emotional regulation difficulties. The current study utilizes a college sample of 132 men to examine the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties on the relationship between experiencing child sexual abuse and later sexual aggression. Although emotion regulation difficulties in general was not significantly related to sexual aggression, one facet, impulse control difficulties, emerged as a significant mediator of the relationship between child sexual abuse and sexual aggression. Intervention programs should focus on the care that children receive following sexual abuse, with particular emphasis on how emotion regulation abilities may be impacted.
尽管大量研究证明儿童期性虐待与男性日后实施性侵犯之间存在联系，但很少有研究探讨这种关系存在的原因。一种潜在机制可能是情绪调节困难。本研究以132名男性大学生为样本，考察情绪调节困难在儿童期性虐待经历与日后性侵犯行为之间关系中的中介作用。虽然总体上情绪调节困难与性侵犯行为没有显著关联，但其中一个方面，即冲动控制困难，成为儿童期性虐待与性侵犯行为之间关系的显著中介因素。干预项目应关注儿童遭受性虐待后所得到的照料，尤其要强调情绪调节能力可能受到的影响。
