abstract="Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) is a global problem with serious repercussions for survivors in various domains of adult interpersonal functioning, including sexual  risk behavior. This review aimed to summarize findings from the recent literature on  the connections between CSA and later adult sexual risk behaviors (e.g., unprotected  intercourse, sexually transmitted infection [STSI] diagnosis). The sexual risk  behaviors consistently associated with CSA were having sex under the influence of  alcohol/substances and reports of concurrent sexual partners/infidelity. Notably,  studies investigating the links between CSA and history of STI diagnosis and CSA and  reports of unprotected sex (with the exception of samples comprised men who have sex  with men) produced inconsistent findings. The methodological limitations of existing  studies are considered and suggestions for future research are offered.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
