The Silent Injuries Questionnaire evolved from an earlier trauma inventory (Sexual Trauma Inventory – STI) developed to measure trauma symptomatology among primary child sexual abuse survivors (Emerick, 1993).

The STI was modified to investigate the relationship between a child sexual abuse professional’s work related experiences and potential cognitive, emotional, social, and sexual injuries (Silent Injuries).
