This study explored the role of depression as a mediator between self-reported sexual abuse and bulimic symptoms. Secondly, the study examined whether there was an association between sexual abuse, bulimic symptoms, or depression and satisfaction in relationships and avoidance of sexual interactions. Women (n=297) who reported experiencing bulimic symptoms and/or depression and women who were not symptomatic completed measures on sexual abuse, bulimic symptoms, depression, satisfaction in partner relationships and avoidance of sexual interactions. A path model analysis indicated that there were direct relationships between sexual abuse and depression, depression and low satisfaction in relationships and avoidance of sexual interactions. Sexual abuse was not directly related to bulimic symptoms when depression was included in the model. Nor was sexual abuse directly related to relationship difficulties. The findings of this study support a model of non-specific pathways between sexual abuse and bulimic symptoms.
本研究探讨了抑郁作为自我报告的性虐待与贪食症状之间中介因素的作用。其次，该研究考察了性虐待、贪食症状或抑郁与人际关系满意度及回避性互动之间是否存在关联。报告有贪食症状和/或抑郁的女性（n = 297）以及无症状的女性完成了关于性虐待、贪食症状、抑郁、伴侣关系满意度和回避性互动的测量。路径模型分析表明，性虐待与抑郁、抑郁与人际关系低满意度及回避性互动之间存在直接关系。当模型纳入抑郁因素时，性虐待与贪食症状无直接关系。性虐待与人际关系困难也无直接关系。本研究结果支持性虐待与贪食症状之间非特异性途径的模型。
