abstract="Purpose: To describe the complex relationship between sexual assault and alcohol misuse by female assault victims. Data sources: Drawing on recent research and theoretical models from other social sciences, the author interjects a nursing perspective for this complex patient problem. Conclusions: This review of theories and models, and the evidence that supports them, provides a way for nurses to conceptualize the relationship between sexual victimization and alcohol misuse as bidirectional or reciprocal. Implications for practice: The evidence and models discussed here suggest that when patients present with sexual assault or alcohol misuse, nurses should assess and address the possibility of both conditions being present.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
