广泛而具体的心理特征可能会独特地区分患有创伤后应激障碍的创伤患者和没有创伤后应激障碍的创伤患者,但有必要进行具有代表性的、以人群为基础的研究。我们调查了神经质和自我批评的增加与创伤后应激障碍的存在和不存在有关,在经历了创伤应激源的具有全国代表性的成年人样本中。受访者来自全国共病调查第二部分(N=5877)(Kessler,Sonenera,Bromet,Hughes,&Nelson,1995)。《普通精神病学档案》,52,1048-1060)。选择经历一次或多次创伤事件的个体(N=3238)。在单独的回归分析中,在经历过一次或多次创伤事件的男性和女性中,神经质和自我批评的水平升高都与创伤后应激障碍显著相关。在控制了所经历的创伤类型和其他以前确定的因素后(Bromet,Sonenera,&Kessler,1998)。美国流行病学杂志,147,353-361),神经质仍然与女性的创伤后应激障碍显著相关,而神经质和自我批评在男性仍然显著。来自经历过创伤事件的具有全国代表性的成年人样本的证据表明,自我批评,特别是神经质的广泛人格领域,可能代表着与创伤后应激障碍的存在相关的强大心理维度。(C)2003爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
Broad and specific psychological traits may uniquely differentiate trauma victims with PTSD from trauma victims without PTSD, but there is a need for representative, population-based research. We investigated elevated neuroticism and self-criticism in association with the presence versus absence of PTSD in a nationally representative sample of adults who experienced a traumatic stressor. Respondents were from the National Comorbidity Survey Part II (N = 5877) (Kessler, Sonnega, Bromet, Hughes, & Nelson, 1995. Archives of General Psychiatry, 52, 1048-1060). Individuals who experienced one or more traumatic events were selected (N = 3238). In separate regression analyses, elevated levels of neuroticism, and self-criticism were each significantly associated with PTSD among men and women who had experienced one or more traumatic events. After controlling for types of traumas experienced and other previously identified factors (Bromet, Sonnega, & Kessler, 1998. American Journal of Epidemiology, 147, 353-361), neuroticism remained significantly associated with PTSD in women and both neuroticism and self-criticism remained significant in men. Evidence from this nationally representative sample of adults who experienced traumatic events suggests that self-criticism and especially the broad personality domain of neuroticism may represent robust psychological dimensions associated with the presence of PTSD.
