BACKGROUND: A history of sexual abuse is associated with a range of psychosocial difficulties and health risk behaviors in the general population. Sexual abuse also appears to be a risk factor for the development of obesity. Little is known, however, about the prevalence and psychosocial correlates of sexual abuse among persons with extreme obesity who seek bariatric surgery.
METHODS: Questionnaire data were collected from 567 individuals with extreme obesity who presented for bariatric surgery. Those with and without a self-reported history of sexual abuse were compared on several psychosocial variables.
RESULTS: Sixteen percent of the surgery candidates (17.0% of women and 11.5% of men) reported a history of sexual abuse. Those who reported a history of sexual abuse were more likely to report previous emotional difficulties, as well as a personal and family history of substance abuse. They also were significantly more likely to meet the criteria for binge eating disorder, as determined from self-report responses to the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns, compared with those without a self-reported history of sexual abuse. In addition, those who reported a history of sexual abuse were more likely to report both current and previous psychiatric treatment than were those who denied a history of abuse.
CONCLUSION: A significant minority of bariatric surgery candidates reported a history of sexual abuse. Among these individuals, a history of sexual abuse was associated with both current and past psychiatric problems and treatment. The relationship of these variables to postoperative outcomes, however, is unknown.
