Revictimization research, to date, has primarily focused on sexual revictimization (i.e., child sexual abuse and adult sexual assault), which has resulted in a lack of understanding of trauma revictimization more generally. Specifically, it is unclear what factors are placing individuals with a history of child maltreatment (i.e., sexual abuse, physical abuse, and witnessing intimate partner violence [IPV]) at greater risk for subsequent adult victimization (i.e., sexual assault and IPV). Existing theoretical and empirical work on revictimization suggest that multiple risk factors are likely present within this framework (e.g., posttraumatic stress symptoms [PTSS], emotion dysregulation, and risk-taking behaviors). Prior research has suggested that PTSS are often linked with these other risk factors, and it is possible that the development of PTSS following child maltreatment may be related to the development or maintenance of additional factors that increase the likelihood of revictimization. The purpose of this review was to synthesize findings regarding risk factors that place maltreated individuals at greater risk for adult revictimization. Approximately 228 studies were identified following a thorough search of the peer-reviewed literature using multiple databases (PsycINFO, PILOTS, and Google Scholar). Each study was critically analyzed for relevance. The included studies were used in our review of prevalence, specific risk factors that have been identified, and unanswered questions in this literature. PTSS were noted to be particularly important in the revictimization framework, and thus, a novel model of revictimization was also proposed where PTSS are illustrated as being associated with the development and maintenance of other factors within the revictimization framework.

迄今为止，再受害研究主要集中在性再受害（即儿童性虐待和成人性侵犯）上，这导致对更普遍的创伤再受害缺乏了解。具体而言，尚不清楚是什么因素使有虐待儿童史（即性虐待、身体虐待和目睹亲密伴侣暴力 [IPV]）的个人在随后的成人受害（即性侵犯和 IPV）中面临更大的风险。现有的关于再次受害的理论和实证研究表明，在这个框架内可能存在多种风险因素（例如，创伤后应激症状 [PTSS]、情绪失调和冒险行为）。先前的研究表明，PTSS 通常与这些其他风险因素有关，虐待儿童后 PTSS 的发展可能与增加再次受害可能性的其他因素的发展或维持有关。本次审查的目的是综合有关使受虐待的个人面临更大的成人再次受害风险的风险因素的调查结果。在使用多个数据库（PsycINFO、PILOTS 和 Google Scholar）对同行评审文献进行彻底搜索后，确定了大约 228 项研究。每项研究都经过严格的相关性分析。纳入的研究用于我们对患病率、已确定的特定风险因素以及该文献中未回答的问题的审查。PTSS 被指出在再次受害框架中特别重要，因此，
