- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoRelación entre el abuso sexual en la infancia y adolescencia y trastornos psicológicos: Una revisión bibliográfica(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Armijos Mora , Angie; Quezada Rueda , Katty; Beltràn Serrano , Gerardo; 0707002010; 1900711274Abstract Introduction: Child and adolescent sexual abuse represents a severe worldwide health problem; the impacts are often broader and more persistent, affecting mental health and promoting the development of psychological disorders, which in turn, cause impairment in the victim's vital spheres. Objective: To understand the relationship between childhood and adolescent sexual abuse (CASA) and the existence of psychological disorders in children and adolescents. Methodology: A qualitative and descriptive literature review was conducted; 12 articles from PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases published between 2019 and 2023 were examined, all meeting the selection criteria. Results: Prevalence of post- traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety were identified. Similarly, it was recognized that this type of violence was closely related to the onset and course of psychological illnesses, as well as to implications such as revictimization, family ties, disclosure of their experience, and low self-esteem, generating repercussions in psychological, sexual, social, and physical levels. Conclusion: The existence of a PTSD prevalence, depression, and anxiety was confirmed, adding to the association between being a victim of CASA and a higher likelihood of developing mental illnesses (generally seen as a predisposing factor), which influence the development and mental health of the victims.
