In a sample of 242 women in treatment for severe mental illness (SMI), we used regression analysis to test the hypothesis that lifetime physical and sexual abuse would correlate with self-harm behaviors (thoughts of self-harm and suicide, self-harming behaviors, and suicide attempts) when controlling for psychiatric symptoms, substance abuse, and negative appraisals of trauma. Lifetime physical abuse and alcohol use were the only significant factors in the model. Women with SMI should be screened regularly for physical abuse, alcohol use, as well as thoughts and behaviors related to self-harming behaviors. Limitations of the study include its cross-sectional design.
在一个由242名接受严重精神疾病(SMI)治疗的女性组成的样本中,我们使用回归分析来检验这样一个假设:在控制精神症状、药物滥用和创伤的负面评价时,终生身体虐待和性虐待会与自我伤害行为(自我伤害和自杀念头、自我伤害行为以及自杀未遂)相关。终生身体虐待和饮酒是该模型中仅有的显著因素。患有严重精神疾病的女性应定期接受身体虐待、饮酒以及与自我伤害行为相关的想法和行为的筛查。该研究的局限性包括其横断面设计。
