CSA is an adverse experience, not a disorder, disease, or diagnosis. It is diverse in terms of its characteristics (e.g., intra- and extra-familial abuse, contact and non-contact activities) and tends to involve particular interpersonal features that can impact on development in distinct ways compared with other types of child maltreatment (e.g., sexual trauma, boundary violations, betrayal, secrecy).495 - 501 (7)Springer Publishingchapter201127Massey_Dark
