Sexual Abuse: Sexual Abuse - epidemiology
(The 5-Minute Pediatric Consult)

• Children of all ages are victimized, with a peak age of vulnerability between 7 and 13 years.
• Girls are victimized more than boys, although abuse of boys is thought to be underreported. Boys represent ~20% of cases reported to child protection agencies each year.
• Race and socioeconomic status are not believed to play a role in the epidemiology of sexual abuse.

Sexual Abuse - incidence

~150,000 substantiated cases are identified each year in the US. This is likely to be a significant underestimation of the actual numbers.

About prevalence and incidence statistics:

The term 'prevalence' of Male sexual conditions usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Male sexual conditions at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Male sexual conditions refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Male sexual conditions diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics.
