CAs that were examples of broader classes of TEs (e.g. sexual assaults perpetrated by a family member v. other sexual assaults) were included both in the TE inventory and the CA inventory in order to evaluate the incremental importance of exposure in the family context. Missing CA reports, which were rare, were coded conservatively as the CAs being absent.
