关于家庭暴力对妇女的影响有很多研究;然而，很少有研究关注拉丁裔和非拉丁裔妇女对家庭暴力的反应可能存在的差异。获得了拉丁裔和非拉丁裔妇女的可比样本，分析显示，这两个样本在她们所遭受的家庭暴力的性质和严重程度方面没有显著差异。然而，结果表明，拉丁裔妇女谁是家庭暴力的受害者有显着更大的创伤相关症状，抑郁症，较低的社会和个人自尊，并不太可能使全球归因于积极的事件比非拉丁裔妇女。她们还报告说，由于孩子的行为，她们比非拉丁裔妇女承受更多的育儿压力。这些结果的影响，拉丁裔和非拉丁裔妇女之间的文化差异进行了讨论。
There has been much research on the effects of domestic violence on women; however, little research has focused on possible differences in reactions to domestic violence between Latina and non-Latina women. Comparable samples of Latina and non-Latina women were obtained and analyses revealed that there were no significant differences between the two samples with regard to the nature and severity of the domestic violence to which they were exposed. However, results indicated that Latina women who had been victims of domestic violence had significantly greater trauma-related symptoms, depression, lower social and personal self-esteem, and were less likely to make global attributions for positive events than were non-Latina women. They also reported more parenting stress due to their child's behaviors than did non-Latina women. The implications of these results in light of cultural differences between Latina and non-Latina women are discussed.
