The authors used a multistage stratified sampling method to conduct a cross-sectional survey of a nationally representative sample of 3,615 Hungarian women aged 15 to 24 years to acquire epidemiologic data on physical and sexual abuse and analyze the relationship between abuse and health-risk behaviors. Just over 30% of the young women reported having experienced some type of abuse in their lifetimes. All maladaptive coping strategies, especially sedative use, were more prevalent among those who had experienced physical abuse. The prevalence of smoking, drinking alcohol, and experimenting with drugs was closely related to both physical and sexual abuse. Having experienced abuse is an important factor in young women's development of risky health behaviors. Clinicians should screen for abuse in this age group to prevent behaviors that lead to long-term health problems.
