Abstract

Women in resource-constrained, postdisaster, urban enclaves, such as Haiti’s Cité Soleil, are at risk for nonpartner sexual violence (NPSV) by multiple perpetrators, and subsequently, psychological trauma and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS. These biopsychosocial risks suggest that NPSV victims may benefit from an adapted evidence-based intervention for sexually transmitted infection (EBI-STI) that includes a trauma component. Yet there is a dearth of knowledge on trauma symptoms experienced by victims in Haiti. We administered a Haitian Kreyòl version of Trauma Symptom Checklist (TSC-40), including its subscales (depression, dissociation, anxiety, sexual problems, sleep disturbance, sexual abuse trauma) to women in Cité Soleil, comparing victims’ scores (n = 54) with those of nonvictims (n = 179). After controlling for child sexual abuse, arrest, transactional sex, and sociodemographics, being a victim was associated with higher scores on the full TSC-40, and subscales of anxiety and sexual abuse trauma index. These increased scores of victims underscore the need to incorporate trauma in adaptation of EBI-STI for Haitian NPSV victims like our sample.

海地城市cit Soleil社区非伴侣性暴力受害者与非受害者的创伤症状比较
生活在资源受限、灾后城市飞地(如海地的cit Soleil)的妇女面临多重施暴者实施非伴侣性暴力(NPSV)的风险,随之而来的是心理创伤和性传播感染(sti),包括艾滋病毒/艾滋病。这些生物-心理-社会风险表明,NPSV受害者可能受益于针对性传播感染(EBI-STI)的适应性循证干预,其中包括创伤成分。然而,人们对海地受害者所经历的创伤症状缺乏了解。我们使用海地Kreyòl版本的创伤症状检查表(TSC-40),包括其子量表(抑郁、分离、焦虑、性问题、睡眠障碍、性虐待创伤)给cit Soleil的妇女,比较受害者(n = 54)和非受害者(n = 179)的得分。在控制了儿童性虐待、逮捕、交易性行为和社会人口统计因素后,受害者在TSC-40、焦虑和性虐待创伤指数的子量表上得分较高。这些增加的受害者数量强调了需要将创伤纳入像我们样本一样的海地NPSV受害者的EBI-STI适应中。
