ABSTRACT : This study identified a previously unexamined group of sexual abuse survivors (those from functional families) and addressed methodological flaws in previous research by examining differences among abused women from functional families, abused women from dysfunctional families, nonabused women from dysfunctional families, and nonabused women from functional families. Measures of depression, anxiety, and interpersonal problems were completed by participants along with a measure of overall distress across a cluster of symptoms associated with childhood sexual abuse. On all four measures, the abused-dysfunctional group reported the highest level of psychological distress. Conversely, the level of psychological distress reported by the abused-functional group did not differ from that of the nonabused-functional or nonabused-dysfunctional groups. Research and counseling implications are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved) 56
