Childhood Sexual Abuse, Body Image, and Disordered Eating: A Structural Modeling Analysis

Sexual Victimization and Disordered Eating in Bisexual Women: A Test of Objectification Theory

“…Doing so may provide clinicians with a clearer, more accurate theoretical conceptualization of their client. In addition, the current study, coupled with previous studies (e.g., Capitaine et al, 2011; Dubosc et al, 2012; Holmes & Johnson, 2017; Williams & Gleaves, 2003), supports the creation of tertiary prevention efforts that college campuses may make in an attempt to address the potential for DE development in female students of all sexual orientations.…”

“…There is a growing body of literature that has established SV as a nonspecific risk factor for DE. The association between SV and DE has been demonstrated in a variety of contexts, including student (e.g., Capitaine et al, 2011; Dubosc et al, 2012; Holmes & Johnson, 2017; Williams & Gleaves, 2003), clinical (e.g., Racine & Wildes, 2015), community (e.g., Preti et al, 2006; Wonderlich et al, 2001), and nationally representative samples (e.g., Armour et al, 2016; Dansky et al, 1997). In addition, while most studies have been cross-sectional, several longitudinal studies have also demonstrated DE to be a postassault outcome (e.g., Johnson et al, 2002; Sanci et al, 2008).…”

A Model Linking Diverse Women’s Child Sexual Abuse History With Sexual Risk Taking

“…This point suggests that there may not have been adequate power within the White and African American subsamples. The finding that there was no relationship between child sexual abuse history and body surveillance was surprising, given that many survivors of child sexual abuse express body image concerns (Murray, MacDonald, & Fox, 2008;Williams & Gleaves, 2003). It is possible that body surveillance may result from more routine, persistent experiences, such as ''cat calls,'' the objectifying gaze, and sexualized media representations of women's bodies (Calogero, 2004;Kozee & Tylka, 2006) that are not specific to women with a history of childhood sexual abuse.…”

Childhood sexual and physical abuse in Spanish female undergraduates: Does it affect eating disturbances?

“…As we mentioned earlier, there has been controversy over this topic, and therefore our results agree with some previous studies, but differ from others. In fact, many authors have found a relationship between CSA and binge eating, and several instances of compensatory behaviour in female samples from the community (Dansky, Brewerton, Kilpatrick, & O'Neil, 1997; Kendler, Bulik, Silberg, Hettema, Myers, & Prescott, 2000; Preti et al, 2006; Sanci et al, 2008; Striegel‐Moore et al, 2002; Wonderlich, Wilsnack, Wilsnack, & Harris, 1996), and college samples (Murray & Waller, 2002; Williams & Gleaves, 2003). This disagreement could be explained, in part, by the fact that most of these studies used bivariate analyses.…”
