Description

Samuel J Mann and co-authors track mental health in young adults in a 2026 cohort study of sexual harassment and abuse. Such acts range from crude comments to forced contact, and they are common in young adulthood. Past work tied them to worse mental health but mostly looked back from one point in time.

The team used yearly waves of a long study that followed teens into adulthood. That design lets them chart mental health before and after each event. The split helps tell harm caused by the event apart from risk that was there before. Clear timing can guide when support should arrive.
