Adolescents who were psychiatrically hospitalized (N = 105) were classified as sexually abused, physically abused, both sexually and physically abused, or not abused, and studied to determine the prevalence of suicidal behavior and psychiatric disorders. Self-reports of hopelessness, depression, coping, and self-concept were also examined. No difference in suicidal behavior or psychiatric disorder, based on abuse history, was found, with one exception. Adolescents who were sexually abused, particularly those who experienced the most severe sexual abuse, used negative coping strategies more often than those not sexually abused. Findings suggest that symptomatology of adolescents who are psychiatrically hospitalized does not differ markedly based on history of abuse.
105名曾因精神问题住院的青少年被分为遭受性虐待、身体虐待、性虐待和身体虐待兼而有之或未受虐待几类，并进行研究以确定自杀行为和精神障碍的患病率。同时还对绝望感、抑郁、应对方式和自我概念的自我报告进行了检查。基于虐待史，未发现自杀行为或精神障碍存在差异，但有一个例外。遭受性虐待的青少年，尤其是那些遭受最严重性虐待的青少年，比未遭受性虐待的青少年更频繁地使用消极应对策略。研究结果表明，因精神问题住院的青少年的症状学基于虐待史并无明显差异。
