Abstract

This study examined how PTSD, sexual trauma, and self-blame independently predict risky sexual behavior (RSB) in trauma exposed community members. Of all examined variables, only self-blame was marginally significantly related to RSB, even after controlling for the effects of PTSD and sexual trauma. Limitations and clinical implications are discussed.
