The impact of trauma on adult sexual assault victims, 2019 / by Dr. Lori Haskell, C. Psych., Dr. Melanie Randall.: J4-92/2019E-PDF

"The focus of this report is on outlining some of the key findings from the body of knowledge of neuroscience, and applying them to the issue of sexual assault and its impacts on victims. More specifically, we review and highlight some of the significant developments, which have emerged from the field of the neurobiology of trauma as they relate to the unique crime of sexual assault. We apply their relevance to the many challenges surrounding the criminal processing of sexual assault cases"--Executive summary, page 5.
