Sexual and physical abuse histories and psychiatric symptoms among male psychiatric outpatients
C Swett Jr, J Surrey and C Cohen
Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, Belmont, Mass.
Of 125 consecutive male patients at an adult psychiatric outpatient clinic,
48% reported histories of sexual abuse and/or physical abuse. The mean
scores on the global severity index of the SCL-90-R at the first visit were
significantly higher for those who reported histories of abuse than for
those who had no such history. Childhood abuse also was associated with
high levels of psychiatric symptoms in these men.
