When assessing a client who has endorsed a history or present behavior that includes acting out sexually, the assessment should always include:
  1. Exploration of potential sexual abuse
  2. Duration of relationships
  3. Number of partners
  4. Potential for emotional connection
Explanation
Answer - A - While the other information may be important for other aspects of the assessment, it is always pertinent to know if there is a history of sexual abuse perpetrated on the client. If they endorse this, the sexual behavior could come from some unresolved issues when they were exposed to such intimate details and acts at such a young age. Your focus of treatment may shift depending on the answer given.
