Abstract

This article describes and evaluates a K-6 child sexual abuse prevention curriculum that was piloted in a large northwestern school district 1986-89. Paired t-tests using pre-test and post-test scores from a random sample of 1,391 K-6 students indicates that significant learning occurred at all grade levels. Analysis of variance results suggest that, overall, learning is not related to students' gender or to the school's socioeconomic level. Responses by 197 teachers concerning their evaluations of curriculum materials and training were positive. Study limitations and future research plans and needs are discussed.
