abstract="The medical records of adolescent sexual assault victims presenting to Harborview Medical Center's Emergency Trauma Center, Seattle, were examined to determine behavioral risk factors preceding the assault. Twenty-six percent of the group were impaired by alcohol or other drugs during the assault. Forty-six percent of the assaults occurred after social interactions with strangers in unprotected surroundings. Five percent occurred after adolescents &quot;hitchhiked&quot; and accepted rides from strangers. Many of the assaults occurred between 10 PM and 4 AM. The incidence of injuries in victims was high (39%), while the incidence of serious injury was zero. Risk-taking behaviors were commonly encountered in adolescent sexual assault victims.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
