人与人之间暴力的影响超出了受害者和施暴者的范围。这项研究的目的有三个:(a)确定大学生对校园枪击事件的早期反应是否与众所周知的悲伤预测因素相关,(B)检查枪击事件发生后的早期悲伤和悲伤反应是否可以区分,以及(c)调查富有同情心的自我认同是否与悲伤而不是悲伤唯一相关。在一场造成一名学生死亡、三名学生受伤的清晨枪击事件发生后仅仅三天,大学生(N = 408)完成了一份在线问卷。悲伤,而不是痛苦,与其他学生的团结感和富有同情心的自我认同有关。一般的痛苦与先前的心理健康问题和暴露于枪击事件有关。急性应激与女性、先前的心理健康问题、媒体曝光、与受害者的相似性、较少的受害者指责、社会支持和社会压力呈正相关。结果表明,悲伤的反应,出现在集体损失后的早期可能作为重要的心理资源,在应对人际暴力。
The impact of interpersonal violence extends beyond the victims and perpetrator(s). The purpose of this research was threefold: (a) to identify whether college students' very early reactions to an on-campus shooting were associated with well-known predictors of distress, (b) to examine whether grief and distress reactions were distinguishable in the early days following a shooting, and (c) to investigate whether a compassionate self-identity was uniquely associated with grief but not distress. Beginning just 3 days after an early morning shooting that killed one student and injured three others, university students (N = 408) completed an online questionnaire. Grief, but not distress, was associated with a sense of solidarity with other students and a compassionate self-identity. General distress was associated with prior mental health difficulties and exposure to the shooting. Acute stress was positively associated with being female, having prior mental health difficulties, media exposure, perceived similarity to victims, less victim blame, social support, and social strain. Results suggest that grief reactions that arise in the early days following a collective loss may serve as important psychosocial resources in coping with interpersonal violence.
