This fully revised volume provides a rigorous assessment of the latest research relating to the disclosure of childhood sexual abuse, along with the practical and policy implications of the findings.

Leading researchers and practitioners from diverse and international backgrounds offer critical commentary on these findings gathered from both field and laboratory research. Building on the first edition, this book presents the research from the past twenty years on why delayed disclosure or denial is so common and what we can do about it. Chapters focus on field research interviewing reluctant children, including suspected victims of sexual abuse and other crimes, victims of trafficking, as well as young, suspected perpetrators of sexual abuse. Adding emphasis on research-based methods for overcoming reluctance, it also explores the different dynamics and circumstances which affect disclosure patterns and the ways in which interviewers can facilitate disclosures.

Child Sexual Abuse is for researchers and practitioners from child, forensic, and clinical psychology, social work, and all legal professionals who need to understand this crime. It will also be of interest to trainee social workers specializing in child welfare and intervention.
