This article explores the effects of previous sexual abuse on the adjustment of children in adoptive placement. A conceptual model is used to interpret the findings of a study comparing the adoptive placements of 35 sexually abused children with the placements of 113 children who had no identified history of sexual abuse. Data were gathered from the children's case records. Results indicate that sexually abused children experienced more moves when in care, increased frequency of disrupted adoptive placements, greater behavioral difficulties, and more attachment problems than the comparison group. This article examines the interaction of sexual abuse and adoption issues and discusses the implications of the findings for social work practice with sexually abused children and their adoptive families.
本文探讨了既往性虐待对处于收养安置中的儿童适应情况的影响。运用一个概念模型来解读一项研究的结果，该研究比较了35名曾遭受性虐待儿童的收养安置情况与113名无明确性虐待史儿童的收养安置情况。数据从儿童的病例记录中收集。结果表明，与对照组相比，曾遭受性虐待的儿童在寄养期间经历了更多次搬家，收养安置中断的频率更高，行为问题更多，依恋问题也更多。本文考察了性虐待与收养问题的相互作用，并讨论了这些研究结果对为曾遭受性虐待儿童及其收养家庭提供社会工作服务的启示。
