Psychological and Social Issues in Sexual Assault and Abuse
Session Overview
Description
This session covers the acute and long-term psychological sequelae of sexual assault in young people and adults, including associated risk-taking behaviour. Sign-posting to support services and referral pathways are recommended.

Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:

  • Describe the acute psychological impact of sexual assault
  • State the long-term psychological effects of child sexual abuse (CSA) and sexual assault
  • Describe the impact of CSA and sexual assault on risk-taking behaviour
  • Recognise available support services and referral pathways

Prerequisites
Before commencing this session you should have completed:

  • Module 1/Sexual Behaviour and Infection Risk (260-0001)
  • Module 8/Sexual Assault and Exploitation in Adults (260-0090)

As you have seen in the session Module 8/Sexual Assault and Exploitation in Adults, sexual assault and rape are common in all societies, affecting both children and adults.

Psychological sequelae affect a significant number of people. Following disclosure of sexual assault in a clinical setting, you must be able to identify and manage the psychosocial needs of the client.

This session should be considered as part of a broader learning programme. You should not expect to be competent enough, following completion of this session alone, to carry out the procedures described without supervision.
