Notes:
Recruiting subjects for follow-up studies in child abuse raises ethical dilemmas. This paper examines the effects of the ethical stance taken in a study of a community sample of sexually abused children. The ethical code adopted required strict confidentiality and active consent to be interviewed from both child and carer, based on full information about the research objectives and method. The response rate was very low. A less rigid stance, which might have resulted in a larger sample, was considered inappropriate. Nevertheless, the quantitative and qualitative data yielded findings of interest to practitioners. Suggestions for future research practice are presented.
