There is an excellent article in Credo reference about the causes of both physical and sexual abuse.  Go to a basic libguide at libguides.brenau.edu/allpurpose and click on the Book tab.  The first box you will see on this page is the Credo reference box.  Type the words Causes of Sexual Abuse into the Credo search box.  You will be asked for your Brenau username and password.  The first article in the results has a detailed explanation of some of the root causes of sexually abusive behavior.
