创伤，特别是他人造成的身体和性虐待，往往是女性囚犯个人历史的一部分。这些创伤事件也与女性囚犯群体中常见的神经精神疾病有关。本文的目的是对女性囚犯在犯罪前遭受身体虐待和性虐待的文献和研究成果、可能导致犯罪行为的神经生物学关联和相关因素进行综述。这一信息对于虐待和预防犯罪以及成为刑事犯罪的女性受害者的康复至关重要。
Trauma, especially physical and sexual abuse inflicted by others, is often part of the personal histories of female prison inmates. These traumatic events have also been associated with neuropsychiatric conditions commonly found in female inmate populations. The purpose of this article is to provide a review of the literature and research findings about physical and sexual abuse perpetrated against female prison inmates predating their crimes, the neurobiological correlates, and related factors that could have contributed to criminal behaviors. This information is critical for abuse and crime prevention and rehabilitation of female victims who have become criminal offenders.
