The Rosebush picture sort : a diagnostic technique to differentiate sexually abused children from other childrenCarter, Mary Ann Sheller 05 1900 (has links)
This study (N = 123) contrasted a group of
sexually abused children in treatment, aged 6 to 12
years, with two comparable groups—other non-sexually
abused children in treatment, and non-abused, non-treatment
children—to determine whether differences in
Rosebush Picture selection could be demonstrated. All
children underwent evaluation procedures that included
completion of a 12 picture selection (the Rosebush
Picture Sort) and the Culture-Free Self-Esteem
Inventory-2 (CFSEI-2). A demographic questionnaire for
each child was completed. Results showed no
differences in picture selection or self-esteem scores
of children at the beginning or end-treatment stage.
Sexually abused children's Rosebush Picture Sort (RPS)
selections at mid-treatment were different than both
comparison groups. The self-esteem scores of the two
clinical groups in mid-treatment were significantly
lower than the scores of the non-abused, non-treatment
group, but did not differ from one another. The
findings indicate that sexually abused children
identify Rosebush Picture Sort pictures differently
than other children. It is possible that sexual abuse
affects the internal working model of children
differently than other types of abuse and trauma.

Gender-specific factors impacting upon males' disclosures of child sexual abuseStoddard, Stephanie M. January 2004 (has links)
The purpose of this research was first, to identify why males sexually abused as children under-report their experiences of child sexual abuse. Secondly, the disclosure experiences of males sexually abused as children were examined and analyzed, with a particular emphasis placed on exploring the links between low disclosure rates, gender role socialization, and homophobia. Qualitative data were gathered during semi-structured interviews of men sexually abused during childhood. Issues and themes arising during interviews were generally consistent with those identified in the literature. However, the sample size was small and additional research---employing larger samples---should be completed in order to collect further qualitative data regarding the disclosure experiences of males sexually abused as children. Despite its limitations, this research does provide valuable insight into the experience of disclosure for male victims of child sexual abuse.

Experiences of late adolescent volunteers presenting a child sexual abuse prevention school programme / J.P. Blok.Blok, Julie Pauline January 2013 (has links)
Child Sexual Abuse is a serious and complex issue for South Africa, demonstrating one of the highest prevalence rates in the world. Scarcity of professional resources demands effective intervention through prevention programmes which largely rely on non-profit organisations as a last hope to decrease the excessively high rates of abuse. Due to lack of resources within the non-profit organisations, they largely rely on volunteers who are often from the late adolescent developmental stage to present these prevention programmes.
The aim of this study was to explore the perceptions and experiences of emerging adult volunteers presenting a sensitive child sexual abuse prevention programme in schools in South Africa. The objectives were to gain further insight and understanding into the late adolescent developmental stage in regard to the participants’ views of presenting a child sexual abuse prevention programme and to identify what aspects of the programme should be altered, improved or continued to avoid risk and harm to these volunteers.
The research approach was qualitative, with the use of case-study and phenomenological strategies that allowed for in-depth insight into how a small group of late adolescents made sense of their experiences and transformed these into subjective, conscious meanings. Criterion-based sampling was used to find the participants who had previously presented the child sexual abuse prevention programme. Data were collected by means of six semi-structured one-on-one interviews and six open-ended questionnaires with twelve participants between the ages of 18-22.
Common themes, patterns, and regularities that recurred throughout the interviews and open-ended questionnaires were identified and the main themes that were evident formed the overall image reflective of the experiences of the volunteers. The findings suggest that the late adolescent stage may be a good age group for presenting this challenging and imperative task. To allow for the most positive impact and avoid harm it is, however, essential that non-experiences of late adolescents presenting a child sexual abuse prevention programme profit organisations provide adequate psychological and emotional support to the volunteers throughout the duration of the programme. The study shows that late adolescents, who felt they had received adequate psychological support, indicated an overall more beneficial and rewarding experience. Participants who felt they had not received sufficient support, reported feelings of helplessness and depressive thoughts, indicating emotional and possibly psychological harm. The study highlights the necessity for adequate support of the late adolescent volunteers presenting sensitive programmes in the future. / Thesis (MA (Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2013.
