This study evolved from previous writings that linked sexual abuse to the quality of the mother-daughter relationship. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the mother-daughter relationship among African-American women who abuse crack cocaine by comparing three different groups: women who have not experienced incest but have experienced sexual abuse; women who have experienced incest; and women who have not experienced sexual abuse. A convenience sample of 64 African-American women was used, 35 of whom were in drug abuse treatment and 29 of whom were abusing crack cocaine. Using analysis of variance studies, significant differences were found between the three groups in terms of the mother-daughter relationship. Differences were also found between the group that experienced incest and the group that experienced nonincestuous sexual abuse in terms of the amount of abuse and first age of abuse. This preliminary investigation indicates the need for further study of specific populations in this area--most notably, African-American women who abuse crack cocaine.
本研究源于先前将性虐待与母女关系质量联系起来的著作。本次调查的目的是通过比较三个不同的群体，来研究滥用快克可卡因的非裔美国女性中的母女关系：未曾经历乱伦但遭受过性虐待的女性；经历过乱伦的女性；以及未曾遭受性虐待的女性。使用了一个由64名非裔美国女性组成的便利样本，其中35人正在接受药物滥用治疗，29人滥用快克可卡因。通过方差分析研究发现，这三个群体在母女关系方面存在显著差异。在虐待程度和首次虐待年龄方面，经历乱伦的群体和经历非乱伦性虐待的群体之间也存在差异。这项初步调查表明，有必要对该领域的特定人群——最值得注意的是，滥用快克可卡因的非裔美国女性——进行进一步研究。
