The study's aims are to explore ethnic differences in rates of adverse childhood experiences and lifetime traumatic events and in rates of psychiatric disorders for patients exposed to similar traumas. Rates of these events and rates of major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress, substance use, and borderline personality disorders were compared among 506 non-Hispanic Whites (N-HW), 108 Latina(o)s, and 94 African Americans (AA) participating in the Collaborative Longitudinal Personality Disorder Study. We found that Whites reported higher rates of neglect than African Americans and Latina(o)s, higher rates of verbal/emotional abuse than African Americans, and higher rates of accidents and injuries/feared serious injury than Latina(o)s. African Americans had higher rates of seeing someone injured/killed than Whites. No significant interaction was observed between adverse events and ethnicity for mental disorders.
本研究旨在探讨不同种族人群在童年不良经历和终身创伤事件发生率以及经历相似创伤后精神障碍发生率方面的差异。该研究比较了 506 名非西班牙裔白人（N-HW）、108 名拉丁裔（Latino）和 94 名非裔美国人（AA）在以下方面的差异：这些事件的发生率以及重度抑郁障碍、创伤后应激障碍、物质使用障碍和边缘型人格障碍的发生率。研究结果显示，与非裔美国人和拉丁裔相比，白人报告的忽视发生率更高，与非裔美国人相比，白人报告的言语/情感虐待发生率更高，与拉丁裔相比，白人报告的事故和伤害/严重受伤恐惧发生率更高。非裔美国人目睹他人受伤/死亡的发生率高于白人。在精神障碍方面，不良事件与种族之间未观察到显著的交互作用。
