Casual sex, although common in college culture, can increase the risk of sexual victimization, which in turn can lead to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study examined sexual victimization, self-esteem, and social support as relative predictors of PTSD and risky casual sex (RCS) in a sample of 229 female undergraduates. Results suggested that enhancing self-esteem may have a greater relative impact on PTSD symptoms compared with social support, even after accounting for the impact of sexual victimization. Moreover, a reduction in PTSD symptoms may have the potential to minimize RCS. Future research is needed to determine temporal relations among these variables.
随意性行为,尽管在大学校园文化中很常见,但会增加性受害的风险,而性受害反过来又可能导致创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)。本研究调查了性受害、自尊和社会支持作为 PTSD 和风险型随意性行为(RCS)的相对预测因子在 229 名女性大学生样本中的作用。结果表明,即使考虑到性受害的影响,增强自尊对 PTSD 症状的相对影响可能也大于社会支持。此外,减少 PTSD 症状可能有潜力最小化 RCS。需要进一步的研究来确定这些变量之间的时间关系。
