MINORS ALLEGED TO BE VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ABUSE

It is known that sexual abuse (SA) affects the most vulnerable people such as boys and girls since due to their lack of psychological maturity they are not able to cope with risk situations so they will be more exposed to child sexual abuse (Erazo & Pinos 2017). That is why in recent times child sexual abuse (CSA) has been recognized in the scientific council and in society as a latent problem generating short and long-term consequences (Cortés & Cortés 2015) causing inadequate development such as for example: behavioral problems (externalizing and internalizing behaviors) and difficulties in establishing interpersonal relationships (social skills).
