Yet, as few studies have examined these links in a multivariate manner, it is unclear which symptoms are most strongly related to SBPs and ISBPs. Research regarding children\u2019s reports of their difficulties and SBPs and ISBPs is also very limited. The current study investigated the relations between both caregiver- and child-reported trauma-related symptoms and SBPs and ISBPs among 248 treatment-seeking sexually abused children (ages 6\u201312; M = 8.06, SD = 2.52; 64.5% female; 55.6% white). Children\u2019s caregiver-reported trauma-related sexual concerns and anger were associated with SBPs. For ISBPs, only caregiver-reported sexual concerns were related to ISBPs. Surprisingly, none of the child-reported symptoms were associated with either SBPs or ISBPs. Trauma-related sexual concerns and anger may be tied to SBPs, whereas other clinical difficulties may be less strongly implicated. Trauma-related sexual concerns may be most important in understanding interpersonally focused SBPs. Children\u2019s self-reported difficulties may be unrelated to caregiver-reported SBPs, or these results may be a function of a low degree of caregiver and child symptom concordance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1077559520971362","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,20]],"date-time":"2020-11-20T04:25:09Z","timestamp":1605846309000},"page":"78-87","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Sexual Behavior Problems Among Sexually Abused Children: Associations With Co-Occurring Symptoms"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8662-3959","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rachel","family":"Wamser-Nanney","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Missouri\u2013St. Louis, MO, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0215-5121","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claudia L.","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Missouri\u2013St. Louis, MO, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr3-1077559520971362","first-page":"99","volume-title":"Manual for the ASEBA school-age forms & profiles","author":"Achenbach T.
