种族主义事件是一种可能造成创伤的受害形式,可能导致目标的精神和心理生理症状加重。美国种族主义事件问题的严重程度难以估计;然而,从几个来源获得的数据可以推断,种族主义事件,特别是有色人种中的种族主义事件的发生率很高。这一条(a)将创伤性压力与非创伤性压力区分开来,(B)将种族主义事件的经历与被认为是创伤性的经历,如强奸或家庭暴力的经历相提并论。将种族主义事件的一些幸存者的症状概念化为创伤反应可能有助于在这些人是心理治疗的客户时为治疗提供信息。
Racist incidents are potentially traumatizing forms of victimization that may lead to increased psychiatric and psychophysiological symptoms in targets. The magnitude of the problem of racist incidents in the United States is difficult to estimate; however, data from several sources permit the inference that the prevalence of racist incidents, particularly among people of color, is high. This article (a) distinguishes traumatic stress from nontraumatic stress and (b) draws parallels between experiences of racist incidents and experiences that are acknowledged to be traumatic, such as rape or domestic violence. Conceptualizing the symptoms of some survivors of racist incidents as trauma responses may help inform treatment when these individuals are clients in psychotherapy.
