Description: Evaluate children who have been or may have been sexually abused The CSBI is a measure of sexual behavior in children that is completed by the mother or other primary female caregiver. Features and benefits For use with children ages 2-12 years who have been or may have been sexually abused. Covers nine major content domains: Boundary Issues, Gender Role Behavior, Sexual Interest, Sexual Knowledge, Exhibitionism, Self-Stimulation, Sexual Intrusiveness, Voyeuristic Behavior, and Sexual Anxiety. Written at a 5th-grade reading level; the primary female caregiver indicates how often she has observed each of the listed behaviors during the preceding 6 months. The CSBI was normed on 1,114 children from a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds in the general population. CSBI data from 512 children from child abuse centers also are presented. Test structure The CSBI Total scale indicates the overall level of sexual behavior the child exhibits. The Developmentally Related Sexual Behavior (DRSB) scale indicates sexual behaviors that can be considered normative for the child’s age and gender. The Sexual Abuse Specific Items (SASI) scale indicates sexual behaviors that can be viewed as relatively atypical for the child’s age and gender; such behaviors raise the suspicion of possible sexual abuse.
