N2  - This study extends previous research on date rape by assessing trauma symptoms and sexual self-esteem in a college population of 41 women who had been date raped and 125 women who had not been raped. Measures used included the Trauma Symptom Inventory (Bierce, 1995) and the Sexual Self-Esteem Inventory-Women (Zeanah and Schwartz, 1996). College women who had been date raped indicated significantly more trauma symptoms and lower sexual self-esteem in several areas than did college women who had not been raped. The results suggest that date rape has significant consequences for women, with implications for clinical treatment of women who have been date raped.<p />
