Six hundred fifty-five women (14.5% of the full sample) endorsed one or more of the behavioral questions assessing CPA. Of those women, 25.8% (169 individuals) also endorsed experiencing physical abuse or assault before the age of 13 on the trauma checklist. Two hundred thirty five women (5.2% overall) endorsed trauma checklist CPA items with 72.2% of those women also endorsing one or more behavioral questions. Tetrachoric correlations for behavioral endorsement and trauma checklist items revealed a weaker correlation for AA (tetrachoric rho = 0.51, p < .0001) versus EA (tetrachoric rho = 0.80, p < .0001) women. Adjusting for familial clustering, AA women were nearly three times as likely as EA women to report experiencing CPA using either question type (29.0% vs. 12.5% respectively, F = 122.79, p < .0001) and were significantly more likely to endorse CPA on the behavioral questions (AA: 26.7%, EA 11.3%; F = 115.89, p < .0001) and trauma checklist (AA: 6.9%, EA: 4.8%; F = 5.28, p =.022). Significant differences across race in overall reporting pattern were also found (F = 49.68, p <.0001);
