But an important finding of this
study is that, in cases of sexual abuse, the risk
is no greater than for other types of
maltreatment. In other words, the victims of
sexual abuse are no more likely than
other victims to become involved with crime.

SNIP

The same is true for sex crimes. People victimized
by sexual abuse as children are also significantly
more likely than nonvictims to be arrested for a
sex crime, although no more so than victims of
physical abuse and neglect.

This similarity among all three groups of
maltreatment victims suggests that for sexual
abuse victims, the criminal effect later in life
may result not from the specifically sexual nature
of the incident but rather from the trauma and
stress of these early childhood experiences or
society's response to them.

SNIP

Childhood sexual abuse victims
were not at greater risk later in life of arrest
for rape or sodomy. Rather, the findings reveal an
association between these crimes and childhood
physical abuse, not sexual abuse. Males who were
physically abused in childhood showed a greater
tendency than other abused and neglected children
and the controls to be arrested for these types of
sex crimes.

SNIP

In fact the majority of the sexually
abused children in this study do not have an
official criminal history as adults. Long-term
consequences of childhood sexual abuse may be
manifest across a number of domains of
psychological distress and dysfunction, but not
necessarily in criminal behavior.

Once again, most survivors do not go on to become abusers themselves and psychology (and your studyw that there are several factors that that turn someone into a perpetrator, including "simple" physical abuse and neglect.
