Low-income, urban African American (AA) girls are at heightened risk for sexually
transmitted infections (STIs), and violence exposure may be an important risk
factor. AA girls (N = 177) from low-income communities in Chicago completed a
2-year longitudinal study of HIV-risk behavior involving five waves of data
collection (ages 12-16 at baseline) and a sixth wave (ages 14-22) assessing
lifetime trauma and victimization history. Childhood exposure to violence (CEV)
represented reports of physical, sexual, or witnessed violence before age 12.
Latent growth curve analysis examined CEV as a covariate of sexual experience,
number of sexual partners, and inconsistent condom use trajectories. CEV was
associated with greater sexual risk, although the pattern differed across the
three outcomes. Overall, findings emphasize the need for early interventions to
reduce sexual risk among low-income urban girls who have experienced violence.
Efforts to address or prevent violence exposure may also reduce rates of STIs in
this population.
