女性遭受身体和性侵犯的程度令人震惊,这可能导致药物使用的升级。相反,来自横断面研究的证据表明,药物使用可能会增加攻击的风险。迄今为止,这种关系的方向性尚不清楚。目前的三波纵向研究解决了这个问题,该研究对3006名妇女进行了为期2年的全国概率样本跟踪调查。在研究的每一波中获得依赖测量,包括关于寿命和新的攻击状态,酒精滥用的问题。还有吸毒。第一波使用毒品,而不是滥用酒精,在随后的两年里增加了新的袭击的几率。反过来,在遭受新的攻击后,酗酒和吸毒的几率显著增加,即使在以前没有使用或攻击史的妇女中也是如此。对于非法药物使用,研究结果支持一种恶性循环关系,即药物使用增加了未来袭击的风险,而袭击增加了随后药物使用的风险。
Women experience alarming levels of physical and sexual assault, which may lead tp escalation of substance use. Reciprocally, evidence from cross-sectional studies indicates that substance use may increase risk of assault, To date, directionality of this relationship remains unclear This issue is addressed by the present 3-wave longitudinal study in which a national probability sample of 3,006 women were followed for 2 years. Dependent measures were obtained at each wave of the study and included questions about lifetime and new assault status, alcohol abuse. and drug use. Wave 1 use of drugs, but not abuse of alcohol, increased odds of new assault in the: subsequent 2 years. Reciprocally, after a new assault, odds of both alcohol abuse and drug use were significantly increased, even among women viith no previous use or assault history. For illicit drug use, findings support a vicious cycle relationship in which substance use increases risk of future assault and assault increases risk of subsequent substance use.
