This study examines military sexual trauma (MST) in men and women deployed in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. A diverse sample of 470 (408 men and 62 women) completed anonymous self-report questionnaires. Seventy-seven reported MST: 51 (12.5%) men and 26 (42%) women. MST was significantly related to symptoms and readjustment and most strongly with intimacy problems. Of those with MST, 73% also reported exposure to war-related stressors. Gender differences revealed that women reported a higher prevalence of MST, but men were more likely to endorse MST with multiple war-related stressors. However, no gender differences were found on reports of symptoms, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or readjustment. Implications of these results are discussed.
本研究调查了部署在伊拉克和阿富汗战争中的男性和女性的军事性创伤（MST）情况。470名（408名男性和62名女性）不同背景的参与者完成了匿名的自我报告问卷。77人报告有军事性创伤：51名（12.5%）男性和26名（42%）女性。军事性创伤与症状及重新适应显著相关，与亲密关系问题关联最为紧密。在有军事性创伤的人中，73%还报告暴露于与战争相关的应激源。性别差异显示，女性报告的军事性创伤患病率更高，但男性更有可能认可同时存在多种与战争相关应激源的军事性创伤。然而，在症状、创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）或重新适应的报告方面未发现性别差异。本文讨论了这些结果的意义。
