Sexual victimization of children is a widespread national and global problem. To create effective policies to combat this problem, there is a need for science-based knowledge. The aim of this paper is to carry out on quantum (number of published works) and quality (the type of published works) on current Croatian findings about sexual victimization of children by the method of analyzing published papers on scientific online sources such as «Hrčak» and «Croatian scientific bibliography» (CROSBI). A number of 44 papers published in the period from 1995 to 2016 was analyzed, which tells about the average publication of 2 works per year (with that that not all the analyzed papers focus exclusively on sexual victimization of children). The analysis showed that the authors mostly wrote about the social reaction to the perpetrator or victim. The most frequently used are the review papers. In the analysis of published papers, quantitative approach dominates and the most commonly used sample is an appropriate sample of children and experts. The results show the attitudes of experts towards sexual victimization of children and their interest in further education in this area. It was also found that sexual violence is the least represented type of violence, while the results of gender differences in incidence are not unambiguous. The analysis of published papers suggests the need for further comprehensive research on sexual victimization issues using a mixed approach to gain more details about the extent and dynamics of sexual victimization of children in Croatia. Such insights can serve as a basis for designing an effective policy to counter this problem.
