Abstract
Abstract: Although a growing body of evidence suggests that sexual abuse of boys is a serious and prevalent problem and that abuse may have a range of negative mental health effects, very little attention has been focused on the treatment of victimized males. The present study was designed to assess, through the use of behavioral measures, the utility of a group therapy program for boys who have experienced sexual abuse. Twelve boys, aged 7 to 10, participated in the study. Six of the boys were involved in a 12-week group treatment program at the University of Manitoba, while the remaining six children were assigned to a wait-list comparison group. Measures of various behavioral problems, including sexualized behavior, were completed by children's caregivers during pre- and post-treatment assessments. It was hypothesized that boys receiving group therapy would experience improvements in measured behavior over the course of the group intervention, and that improvements would be greater than those of boys in the wait-list comparison group. Analyses indicated that children in the treatment condition did experience improvements over the course of the intervention, although the effects of the treatment program varied considerably from child to child. Implications of the findings are discussed and suggestions are offered regarding future work with boys who have experienced sexual abuse.
