The purpose of this article was to conduct a review of experimental, quasi-experimental, and pre-test/post-test studies using manualized, trauma-informed interventions with incarcerated women. A systematic search of electronic databases, reference harvesting, and communication with experts were used to identify relevant primary studies. Nine studies meeting the specified inclusion/exclusion criteria were identified. Three studies used random assignment and five used a comparison or waitlist group. Interventions identified included Seeking Safety, Helping Women Recover/Beyond Trauma, Esuba, and Beyond Violence. Results of the studies indicate a decrease in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptomatology and an additive effect to treatment as usual. Initial evidence for trauma-informed interventions for incarcerated women appears positive; however, replication using more rigorous research designs and inclusion of effect sizes are recommended. Limitations of this review include exclusion of the gray literature and lack of meta-analysis.
本文的目的是对使用针对被监禁女性的手册化、创伤知情干预措施的实验性、准实验性和预测试/后测试研究进行综述。通过对电子数据库进行系统检索、参考文献收集以及与专家沟通,来确定相关的原始研究。共识别出9项符合指定纳入/排除标准的研究。其中3项研究采用了随机分配,5项研究使用了对照组或等待名单组。确定的干预措施包括“寻求安全”、“帮助女性康复/超越创伤”、“埃苏巴”和“超越暴力”。研究结果表明,创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)症状有所减轻,并且对常规治疗有叠加效应。针对被监禁女性的创伤知情干预措施的初步证据似乎是积极的;然而,建议采用更严格的研究设计进行重复研究并纳入效应量。本综述的局限性包括排除了灰色文献且缺乏荟萃分析。
