    Abstract Background: Experiences of stressful life events during transition may have a negative impact on quality of life (QoL) in trans persons. Little attention has been paid to this population in Switzerland, resulting in sparse data on their QoL and associated social factors.
    Methods: 30 participants were recruited during their medical transition treatment and surveyed on their experiences within this time period (13 months after the first medical intervention on average). After performing a diagnostic interview to evaluate their mental health, health-related QoL, psychological distress, self-esteem and the impact of life events that occurred in the last six months on participants were further assessed.
    Results: Approximately 17% of participants had suffered from major depression, 43% reported having had suicidal thoughts or having attempted suicide, and 43% suffered from an anxiety disorder. Psychological distress was twice as high compared to the norm values of the cis population. With regard to QoL, trans individuals showed impairments in the mental domain. Stressful life events were particularly evident on a psychological and social level. Analysis showed a negative correlation between impact of life events and mental QoL and between psychological distress and mental QoL. At the same time, there was a positive correlation between self-esteem and mental QoL. Psychological distress and self-esteem emerged as independent significant predictors of mental QoL.
    Conclusion: This study shows lowered mental QoL and associations of low mental QoL with psychological distress, low self-esteem and stressful life events in trans individuals in Switzerland. The findings concur with the Gender Minority Stress Model and point out that medical transition must not be viewed in isolation but must be embedded in the framework of integrative psychosocial support.

    Title translation The danger of medicalization of sexuality: How the pharmaceutical industry contributes to the development and maintenance of sexual problems
    Abstract Vor dem Hintergrund der gegenwärtig gegebenen pharmakologischen Interventionsmöglichkeiten werden Gefahren einer Medikalisierung der Sexualität erörtert. Als Hauptkritikpunkt an dieser durch die Pharmaindustrie vorangetriebenen Medikalisierung der Sexualität wird deren ausschließliche biologische Konzeptualisierung genannt, wodurch befriedigende Sexualität mit genitalem Funktionieren gleich gesetzt wird. Demgegenüber wird darauf hingewiesen, dass die meisten sexuellen Probleme von Menschen psychologische, partnerschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Ursachen haben und dass selbst bei rein physiologisch bedingten Sexualproblemen der psychosoziale Kontext einbezogen werden sollte. Als Konsequenz einer Reduzierung der Sexualität auf die physiologischen Sexualfunktionen wird eine Pathologisierung des menschlichen Sexualerlebens und -verhaltens ausgemacht, von der insbesondere ältere Menschen stark betroffen sind, und als weiteres Resultat sexuelle Minderwertigkeitsgefühle. Die Kombination von Minderwertigkeitsgefühlen und biologischem Verständnis von Sexualität werden als zweckdienliche Voraussetzung dafür angesehen, dem Werben der Pharmaindustrie nachzukommen. Abschließend wird darauf eingegangen, dass die Wirksamkeit einer medikamentösen Behandlung sexueller Probleme umstritten ist.

    Abstract The extent and quality of social support provided to young survivors of sexual abuse (SA) have only rarely been examined. This qualitative study aimed to investigate adolescent perspectives on social support received in the aftermath of SA. A total of 26 sexually victimized adolescents (15-18 years old) participated in a qualitative face-to-face, in-depth interview that focused on perceived social support. Qualitative content analysis was conducted as per Mayring (2008) using the qualitative data analysis program ATLAS.ti. In addition, quantitative correlational analyses were conducted to identify characteristics of SA and their associations with perceived social support. Although participants perceived parental support as the most necessary type of support, they were much more satisfied with support from peers. In particular, adolescents stated that they wished they had received more emotional support from their parents in order to better cope with the abuse. About half of participants reported having received counseling, and counseling was seen as very helpful in dealing with the consequences of SA. Only a few adolescents mentioned their school as a source of support. Intra-familial abuse, younger victim age at the time of abuse, an adult perpetrator, and severe abuse were all negatively associated with satisfaction with perceived support. Our results suggest that support for young survivors of SA needs to be improved. Prevention of SA needs particular focus on improving parental reactions to SA, facilitating access to professional support, and raising teacher awareness of the importance of their role in the provision of support for sexually victimized children.

    Abstract Purpose: Child sexual abuse (CSA) is one of the most serious public health problems among children and adolescents, owing to its widespread prevalence and serious health consequences. The present study aimed to assess the prevalence of, and characteristics and circumstances associated with, CSA.
    Methods: An epidemiological survey was conducted on a nationally representative sample of 6,787 ninth-grade students (15.5 ± .66 years of age) in Switzerland. Self-reported computer-assisted questionnaires were administered between September 2009 and May 2010. Various forms of sexual victimization were assessed using the newly developed Child Sexual Abuse Questionnaire.
    Results: Overall, 40.2% and 17.2% of girls and boys, respectively, reported having experienced at least one type of CSA event. Lifetime prevalence rates were 35.1% and 14.9%, respectively, for CSA without physical contact, 14.9% and 4.8% for CSA with physical contact without penetration, and 2.5% and .6% for CSA with penetration among girls and boys. The most frequently experienced event was sexual harassment via the Internet. More than half of female victims and more than 70% of male victims reported having been abused by juvenile perpetrators. Depending on the specific event, only 44.4%-58.4% of female victims and 5.8%-38% of male victims disclosed CSA, mostly to peers.
    Conclusions: The present study confirms the widespread prevalence of CSA. The high prevalence of CSA via the Internet and the frequent reports of juvenile perpetrators suggest emerging trends in CSA. Low disclosure rates, especially among male victims, and reluctance to disclose events to family members and officials may impede timely intervention.

    Abstract Background: Prevalence rates of child maltreatment (CM) can differ substantially between countries and ethnicities. Reasons, however, are complex and not sufficiently understood.
    Method: This epidemiological study examined prevalence and risk factors of various types of CM in a population-based representative sample of native and immigrant adolescents in Switzerland (N = 6,787).
    Results: The prevalence of CM in general was lowest in the native group, higher in the Western immigrant group, and highest in the non-Western immigrant groups. An immigrant background was related to an overrepresentation of several risk factors for CM. Adjusted odds ratio of an immigrant background were still significant for physical and emotional abuse but not for neglect and sexual assault.
    Conclusions: Differences in the prevalence of CM across ethnographic origins are at least partially related to socioeconomic and ecologic risk factors. The distribution of risk factors may vary depending on the contexts of migration.

    Abstract Objective: A systematic review of studies on psychosocial adjustment, HRQoL (health-related quality of life), and psychosexual development of boys with hypospadias.
    Methods: Research was conducted on several online bibliographic databases. Articles were selected on the basis of predefined criteria. Methodological quality was assessed by two independent reviewers who applied a standardized checklist. When possible, data analyses were performed by calculating effect sizes.
    Results: Thirteen studies met the criteria for inclusion, whose methodological standard ranged from low to high quality. None of them has focused on HRQoL. Findings with regard to psychosocial and psychosexual adjustment were inconsistent, though they clearly showed that boys with hypospadias suffer from negative genital appraisal and sexual inhibitions. Overall, medical factors exerted a rather small influence. Psychosocial risk factors have hardly been examined so far.
    Conclusions: The identification of psychosocial risk factors in methodologically sound studies is necessary to guarantee a comprehensive treatment for boys with hypospadias.
