Abstract
Using prospective data gathered from a sample of 323 college women over a 1 0-week academic quarter the present study examined whether dissociation and posttraumatic symptomatology mediate or moderate sexual revictimization. R esults indicated that posttraumatic symptomatology, but not dissociation, m oderated the link between previous and subsequent sexual victimization. Nei ther posttraumatic symptomatology nor dissociation mediated revictimization .
