ABSTRACT Little research has explored sexual grooming behaviours in sibling sexual harm (SSH). This study investigated the characteristics of SSH, as well as the extent to which sexual grooming behaviours were used, based on the self-report of 38 individuals who were sexually harmed by a sibling. Results showed the SSH most often involved a sibling that was a juvenile themselves. In terms of SSH characteristics, fondling/kissing were the most commonly reported behaviours, and many cases of SSH occurred during afternoon and evening hours, over summer months, and within the siblings’ homes. On average, individuals who experienced SSH reported 13 out of a possible 42 sexual grooming behaviours and the most commonly endorsed sexual grooming behaviours were Victim Selection tactics, while Gaining Access and Isolation behaviours were the least endorsed. The results can be used to inform prevention, education, and policy efforts related to SSH. Practice impact statement The results of the study shed light on the common characteristics, as well as the use of sexual grooming behaviours, in sibling sexual harm cases. This information can help inform prevention, education, and policy efforts related to sibling sexual harm.

ABSTRACTGiven high prevalence rates internationally for female rape and CSA and a gap in the literature regarding personality characteristics of those more likely to endorse these myths, this research sought to examine female rape myths versus child sexual abuse (CSA) myth acceptances as a function of the participants’ maladaptive personality traits and sexual trauma history. 469 adults (61.4% female, 36.5% male, M age range 35–44 years old) participated, endorsing significantly higher rates of acceptance of female rape myths than CSA myths. Sexual trauma history was unrelated to either myth. Higher scores on Antisocial, Narcissistic and Sadistic Personality Disorder scales were significantly correlated with higher rates of acceptance of both myths. Multiple regression analyses determined that higher scores on Narcissistic and Sadistic personality scales uniquely predicted both higher CSA and female rape myth acceptance. The results offer implications for more effective communications to combat false beliefs about CSA and sexual assault.PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENT The results may have implications for interventions targeting false beliefs about CSA and sexual assault. Our research focuses on personality disorder traits, leading to possible implications for individuals with these traits or disorders, as they are diagnoseable and therefore can be treatable. Interventions targeting these myths generally may not be as effective for someone with these personality disorders, so this research suggests perhaps modified protocols can be created to help destigmatise CSA and rape survivors in these populations.KEYWORDS: Rape mythschild sexual abuse mythspersonality disordersCoolidge axis II inventoryCSA myth scaleIllinois rape myth acceptance scale Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

ABSTRACT Professional confidence and knowledge are essential in effectively responding to sibling sexual abuse (SSA). If professionals do not have knowledge of the area and confidence in their skills to deliver effective support, then there could be negative consequences for the victims. The methods consisted of narrative interviewing of N = 30 professionals and N = 2 young victims/survivors. This approach was chosen as it provided a thorough and robust picture of practitioner responses to SSA. Through thematic analysis, three dominant themes emerged across both the young person and practitioner data in relation to practitioner responses to SSA, these being minimisation, exaggeration, and catastrophising. SSA is an area in its own right with its own nuances and considerations that make it distinct from other forms of sexual abuse, which means that professional responses and training need to be re-examined to develop new, more appropriate ways of working with victims as well as those who commit SSA. PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENT The impact of this paper is both clinical and professional. It gives insight into a little-researched area and highlights the complex issues in relation to sibling sexual abuse and how this is framed and approached by professionals. This points to the critical need for more work and training in this area when working with SSA and the need for more bespoke professional knowledge.

ABSTRACT This paper provides rich detail and insight into therapeutic practice with a young person in treatment for harmful sexual behaviour (HSB). Using a single case-study design, the paper illustrates an application of the core treatment components of existing best-practice HSB frameworks when working within the context of intra-familial sexual abuse between children. The paper describes a short-term treatment comprising 10 individual sessions with a young adolescent male who engaged in intra-familial sexual abuse and attended for therapy in a private practice. Intervention targeted the HSB, healthy sexual development, and emotion regulation and included parental involvement, with observable and measurable positive outcomes. The paper emphasises the importance of adopting a holistic approach to treatment. Treatment delivery, outcomes and directions for future research are discussed in the context of the extant literature. PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENTUsing a single case-study design, this paper provides detail about intervention sessions that would otherwise be difficult to achieve in a larger scale study. The focus on the intricacies of intervention enhances the utility of this paper for researchers and practitioners in the field.

ABSTRACT In this commentary paper, which draws on the authors’ own past research and practice experience in the field of child sexual abuse prevention as well as a thorough knowledge of the extant literature, we argue that sibling sexual abuse challenges conventional thinking about child sexual abuse, both in terms of how the general public conceptualises child sexual abuse and in terms of our practice responses to it. Traditional service responses are often inadequate and inappropriate in situations involving sexual abuse between siblings. The question is further raised as to whether traditional service responses are appropriate for other forms of child sexual abuse. We argue that instead of siloed, individualist therapy and criminal or youth justice responses, whole-family responses are required, which draw on the principles of family therapy and restorative justice.

ABSTRACT Sibling sexual abuse constitutes a substantial proportion of sexual abuse committed by young people. The consequences for victims of sibling abuse have been found as extensive as the consequences of abuse from adults. Sibling sexual abuse also affects the entire family. However, little research has investigated sibling sexual abuse and its consequences from a parents’ perspective. This study examines the unique experiences of parents who faced disclosure of sibling sexual abuse. Five parents were interviewed, and the texts were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Four themes were identified: Parenting – insecurity and new parental challenges; Family – the loss of the family as a unit and the family as you knew it; The couple’s life – the loss of the love relationship and the fight for keeping the bond; and Adaptation – a new way forward. The findings highlight the extensive consequences for families experiencing sibling abuse and the lack of support from professionals in dealing with the crisis. Clinical implications of the findings are discussed. PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENT Sibling sexual abuse can be experienced as a major crisis for all family members. This study illuminates the lived experiences of parents in managing sibling sexual abuse, the perceived impact on them as parents, and their relationships with each other and with their children, the child who sexually harmed, as well as harmed and non-abused children. The findings further underline the need of external support for affected families.

ABSTRACT This study explores adverse childhood experiences and problematic psychosocial functioning for youths who exhibit harmful sexual behaviours (HSBs) against siblings in comparison to those that sexually harm non-siblings. In a sample of Australian male adolescents referred to a specialised sexual offending treatment service, greater prevalence of all adverse experiences investigated, except for caregiver incarceration, was found for youths who harmed siblings. Youths whose sexual behaviours harmed siblings were differentiated from other youths with HSBs in regard to characteristics of caregivers, including caregiver mental health issues, caregiver sexual victimisation experiences, and instability in caregivers during childhood. In addition, youths who exhibited HSBs against siblings experienced a greater total number of adversities in their lives and were characterised by poorer psychosocial functioning, such as social exclusion and internalising problems. Implications of these findings for clinical treatment is discussed. PRACTICE IMPACT STATEMENT This research identifies developmental risk factors of youths who exhibit HSBs against siblings and examines if and how these differ from characteristics of youths who sexually harm non-siblings. Greater understanding of youths who sexually harm siblings allows treatment and prevention strategies to be tailored to their specific needs.
