A recent study conducted by the Hubei University of Science and Technology in mainland China aimed to determine the prevalence of child sexual abuse among 15- to 17-year-old adolescents. The study found that the overall prevalence of child sexual abuse was 12%, with 13% of girls and 10.6% of boys reporting abuse before the age of 18. Factors associated with increased odds of reporting sexual abuse included being female, sexual minority identity, younger age, and higher levels of knowledge and self-efficacy regarding condom use. On the other hand, those who had never discussed sex-related topics with their family and received school-based sexuality education later were less likely to report abuse. The study suggests that comprehensive prevention programs and strategies should be implemented to reduce child sexual abuse among adolescents in China. [Extracted from the article]
