Reports of childhood sexual experiences with adults were collected from 120 women attending general-practice surgeries and 115 women psychiatric patients. The method of study, research team and county of residence were the same for the two groups. The psychiatric patients tended to report rates of events higher than the general-practice attenders by a factor of 2-3. The results suggest an association between such experiences and later psychiatric patienthood and are compatible with a causal role for them in some cases.
从120名到普通诊所就诊的女性以及115名女性精神病患者那里收集了她们与成年人性接触的童年经历报告。两组的研究方法、研究团队及居住县相同。精神病患者报告的此类事件发生率往往比普通诊所就诊者高出2至3倍。结果表明此类经历与后来成为精神病患者之间存在关联,并且在某些情况下二者存在因果关系。
