An intervention, with forgiveness toward their abuser as the goal, was implemented with 12 female incest survivors. The women, from a midwestern city, were 24 to 54 years old, and all were Caucasian. A yoked, randomized experimental and control group design was used. The participants were randomly assigned to an experimental group (receiving the forgiveness intervention immediately) or a waiting-list control group (receiving the intervention when their matched experimental counterpart finished the intervention). Each participant met individually with the intervener once per week. The average length of the intervention for the 12 participants was 14.3 months. A process model of forgiveness was used as the focus of intervention. Dependent variables included forgiveness, self-esteem, hope, psychological depression, and state-trait anxiety scales. After the intervention, the experimental group gained more than the control group in forgiveness and hope and decreased significantly more than the control group in anxiety and depression. When the control group then began the program they showed similar change patterns to the above, as well as in self-esteem improvement.
针对12名女性乱伦幸存者实施了一项以宽恕施虐者为目标的干预措施。这些女性来自美国中西部一个城市,年龄在24岁至54岁之间,均为白种人。采用了配对、随机实验和对照组设计。参与者被随机分配到实验组(立即接受宽恕干预)或等待名单对照组(在与之匹配的实验组参与者完成干预后接受干预)。每位参与者每周与干预者单独会面一次。12名参与者的平均干预时长为14.3个月。宽恕的过程模型被用作干预的重点。因变量包括宽恕、自尊、希望、心理抑郁以及状态-特质焦虑量表。干预后,实验组在宽恕和希望方面的提升超过了对照组,在焦虑和抑郁方面的下降幅度也显著大于对照组。当对照组随后开始该项目时,他们表现出与上述相似的变化模式,在自尊提升方面也是如此。
