Dissociation, violence and risk reducing behaviors in women.

Abstract segment: "Findings. 46% reported a history of childhood sexual abuse and 36% experienced physical assault in the past year. Dissociation was a significant predictor of safe sex behaviors. High levels of dissociation were associated with lower scores on the Safe Sex Behaviors Questionnaire. The Baron and Kenny method revealed a trend towards mediation effects. Using the bootstrapping method, child sexual abuse was found to have an indirect effect on safe sex behaviors, with the effect occurring through dissociation."
