Waibel-Duncan, Mary Katherine; Sanger, Maureen
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v23 n3 p281-86 Mar 1999
A study of 30 girls (ages 6-16) and their adult guardians found the majority of adults were inadequately prepared for their children's anogenital exams and reported that they receive no exam information prior to the clinic visit. Most children knew little about the exam's sensory or procedural aspects. (Author/CR)
