Abstract
This study investigated different types of family relationships as they impacted loneliness. The sample completed relevant questionnaires and reported whether they had or had not experienced sexual assault. The results demonstrate that family relationships impact loneliness in both groups, while cohesive family emotional support is an overall protective factor.
