Information-Processing Correlates of Reported Sexual Abuse in Eating-Disordered and Comparison Women.
Waller, Glenn; Ruddock, Angela
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v19 n6 p745-59 Jun 1995
An adaptation of the Stroop Test (using colored words related to sexual abuse) impaired color-naming in eating-disordered women (n=50) and in comparison women reporting sexual abuse. The interference effect was related to abuse characteristics, degree of bulimic psychopathology, and frequency of binging. A two-stage model of cognitive reaction to sexual abuse is proposed.
