使用标准化的虐待定义，对成人性侵犯经历后的积极（即成长）和消极（即创伤后应激症状和一般症状）调整的作用进行了研究。这些反应与来自正式和非正式提供者的积极和消极支持有关。最后，采用标准化的测量方法，考察了积极支持和消极支持、正式支持和非正式支持在预测积极和消极心理适应方面的集体影响。研究发现，这两种形式的非正式支持都与积极的结果有关。只有消极的非正式支持与创伤后应激症状有关。急救人员应考虑支持资源是否适合受害者的需要。
The roles of positive (i.e., growth) and negative (i.e., posttraumatic stress symptoms and general symptomatology) adjustment following adult sexual assault experience(s) were examined using a standardized definition of abuse. These reactions were explored in association with positive and negative support from formal and informal providers. Finally, using standardized measures, the collective impact of positive and negative support, formal and informal support were investigated in predicting positive and negative psychological adjustment. Both forms of informal support were found to be associated with positive outcomes. Only negative informal support was associated with posttraumatic stress symptoms. First responders should consider whether support resources are appropriate to victims needs.
