Many youth serving organizations (YSOs) implement child sexual abuse (CSA) prevention strategies. We examined the potential impact of those strategies by retrospectively estimating the prevalence of CSA and boundary violating behaviors experienced in five broad organizational settings: organized sports, religious organizations, music or arts programs, K-12 schools, and the "Big 6 settings" (i.e., 4-H, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Boy Scouts of America, Girl Scouts of the USA, and the YMCA of the USA). We compared victimization rates between nationally representative cohorts of younger adults (age 18-22; = 3174) and slightly older adults (age 32-36, = 3237). Across all participants and settings, 3.75% ( 363) experienced CSA in YSOs. Among survivors, younger adults reported experiencing a lower proportion of CSA within Big 6 settings than older adults (29.1% vs. 44.5%; < .05), suggesting that prevention efforts may be having the desired effects in Big 6 settings.
许多青少年服务组织（YSO）都实施了儿童性虐待（CSA）预防策略。我们通过回顾性估计在五个广泛的组织环境中经历的CSA和违反边界行为的发生率，来研究这些策略的潜在影响：有组织的体育运动、宗教组织、音乐或艺术项目、K-12学校以及“六大组织”（即美国4-H组织、美国大哥哥大姐姐组织、美国男孩女孩俱乐部、美国童子军、美国女童子军和美国基督教青年会）。我们比较了具有全国代表性的年轻成年人（18-22岁；n = 3174）和稍年长成年人（32-36岁；n = 3237）队列之间的受害率。在所有参与者和环境中，3.75%（n = 363）的人在青少年服务组织中经历过CSA。在幸存者中，年轻成年人报告在六大组织中经历CSA的比例低于年长成年人（29.1%对44.5%；p <.05），这表明预防措施可能在六大组织中产生了预期效果。
