TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - A structural equation model of depression risk in young women with a history of child sexual abuse JO - Feminist criminology A1 - Cantón-Cortés, David A1 - Cortés, María Rosario A1 - Cantón, José SP - 206 EP - 222 VL - 17 IS - 2 N2 - This study aimed to propose and empirically test a model of the role of beliefs and emotions, self-destructive coping, and anxious attachment in the etiology of depression among a sample of 217 female survivors of child sexual abuse. The structural equation model showed a direct path from feelings of betrayal, self-destructive coping, and major anxious attachment to depression. The model also showed an indirect path (via self-destructive coping and anxious attachment) from feelings of powerlessness?particularly self-blame/stigma?to depression. The present results confirmed the existence of an explanatory model of depression risk in young adult women.
