Although violent victimization is highly prevalent among men and women with serious mental illness (SMI; e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder), future research in this area may be impeded by controversy concerning the ability of individuals with SMI to report traumatic events reliably. This article presents the results of a study exploring the temporal consistency of reports of childhood sexual abuse, adult sexual abuse, and adult physical abuse, as well as current symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among 50 people with SMI. Results show that trauma history and PTSD assessments can, for the most part, yield reliable information essential to further research in this area. The study also demonstrates the importance of using a variety of statistical methods to assess the reliability of self-reports of trauma history.
尽管暴力受害情况在患有严重精神疾病（如精神分裂症、双相情感障碍）的男性和女性中极为普遍，但该领域未来的研究可能会因关于患有严重精神疾病的个体能否可靠报告创伤事件的争议而受阻。本文呈现了一项研究的结果，该研究探讨了50名患有严重精神疾病的个体报告童年性虐待、成人性虐待和成人身体虐待情况的时间一致性，以及创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的当前症状。结果表明，创伤史和PTSD评估在很大程度上能够产生对该领域进一步研究至关重要的可靠信息。该研究还证明了使用多种统计方法来评估创伤史自我报告可靠性的重要性。
