Researchers have compiled significant evidence demonstrating that sexual harassment leads to psychological harm, including the full symptom picture of PTSD, but few have examined the psychological processes involved. Research on attributions among trauma victims would suggest that causal attributions and perceptions of control may be important predictors of outcomes. The authors discuss a study involving a path model that used data from 189 women involved in sexual harassment litigation. Results indicate that both self-blame and harasser blame were positively related to PTSD symptoms. Control over recovery and the perception that future harassment is unlikely were both related to fewer PTSD symptoms. Unexpectedly, perceived control over future harassment is related to higher levels of PTSD symptoms. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
研究人员已经收集了大量证据，证明性骚扰会导致心理伤害，包括 PTSD 的全部症状，但很少有人研究涉及的心理过程。创伤受害者的归因研究表明，因果归因和控制感可能是结果的重要预测因素。作者讨论了一项涉及路径模型的研究，该研究使用了 189 名参与性骚扰诉讼的女性的数据。结果表明，自责和归咎于骚扰者都与 PTSD 症状呈正相关。对康复的控制感和认为未来不太可能受到骚扰的看法都与较少的 PTSD 症状有关。出乎意料的是，对未来骚扰的感知控制与更高水平的 PTSD 症状有关。讨论了对研究和实践的影响。
