It was carried out in the spring of 2002. The overall purpose of the survey reported here has therefore been to study how often sexual assaults on children occur; their nature; which children are being assaulted; who are the assailants; and how may such assaults affect the development of the abused young boy or girl. At the same time the survey has uncovered the young persons? experiences with physical violence and their views as to why sexual and physical assaults occur and how they may be avoided.
