Latent class analysis was used to examine patterns of victimization among a community sample of 212 women experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). Results identified three classes of women characterized by victimization history (recent IPV, childhood victimization); classes were further differentiated by IPV-related posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, other indicators of psychological distress, and substance use. Differentiating levels of victimization and their associated patterns of psychosocial functioning can be used to develop intervention strategies targeting the needs of different subgroups of women so that mental health and substance use problems can be reduced or prevented altogether. Implications for treatment and future research are presented here.
潜类分析被用于研究 212 名经历亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)的社区女性样本中的受害模式。结果确定了三类女性,其特点是受害史(最近的 IPV、童年受害);这些类别进一步通过与 IPV 相关的创伤后应激障碍症状、其他心理困扰指标和物质使用来区分。区分不同程度的受害及其相关的心理社会功能模式可用于制定针对不同女性亚群需求的干预策略,从而减少或完全预防心理健康和物质使用问题。本文提出了治疗和未来研究的意义。
