          ABSTRACT

          Background

          There is very little work on the role of positive or benevolent childhood experiences and how such events might offer protection from the insidious effects of adverse experiences in childhood or later in life.

          Objectives

          We set out to test, using latent variable modelling, whether adverse and benevolent childhood experiences could be best described as a single continuum or two correlated constructs. We also modelled the relationship between adverse and benevolent childhood experiences and ICD-11 PTSD and Complex PTSD (CPTSD) symptoms and explored if these associations were indirect via psychological trauma.

          Methods

          Data were collected from a trauma-exposed sample ( N = 275) attending a specialist trauma care centre in the UK. Participants completed measures of childhood adverse and benevolent experiences, traumatic exposure, and PTSD and CPTSD symptoms.

          Results

          Findings suggested that adverse childhood experiences operate only indirectly on PTSD and CPTSD symptoms through lifetime trauma exposure, and with a stronger effect for PTSD. Benevolent childhood experiences directly predicted only CPTSD symptoms.

          Conclusions

          Benevolent and traumatic experiences seem to form unique associations with PTSD and CPTSD symptoms. Future research is needed to explore how benevolent experiences can be integrated within existing psychological interventions to maximise recovery from traumatic stress.

           

          Objetivos: Nos propusimos evaluar, usando un modelo de variables latentes, si experiencias adversas y benignas en la infancia podrían ser mejor descritas como un continuo simple o bien como dos constructos correlacionados. También modelamos la relación entre experiencias adversas y benignas en la infancia y síntomas de TEPT y TEPT complejo (TEPTc) según la CIE-11 y exploramos si estas asociaciones eran indirectas a través del trauma psicológico.

          Métodos: Los datos fueron obtenidos de una muestra expuesta a trauma (N=275) que acudía a un centro especializado en trauma en el Reino Unido. Los participantes completaron mediciones sobre experiencias adversas y benignas en la infancia, exposición a trauma, y síntomas de TEPT y TEPTc.

          Resultados: Los hallazgos sugirieron que las experiencias adversas en la infancia operan sólo indirectamente en síntomas de TEPT y TEPTc a lo largo de exposición a trauma en la vida, con un importante efecto para TEPT. Las experiencias benignas en la infancia predijeron directamente sólo síntomas de TEPTc.

          Conclusiones: Las experiencias adversas y benignas parecen formar asociaciones particulares con síntomas de TEPT y TEPTc. Se requieren investigaciones futuras para explorar cómo las experiencias benignas pueden ser integradas en intervenciones psicológicas existentes para optimizar la recuperación de estrés traumático.

           

          目的: 我们着手于使用潜变量模型, 以考查童年期不良经历和良善经历最好可被描述为一个连续体还是两个相关构念。我们还模拟了童年期不良经历和良善经历与ICD-11 PTSD和复杂性PTSD (CPTSD) 症状之间的关系, 并探讨了这些关联是否通过心理创伤间接产生。

          方法: 数据从在英国一家专业创伤护理中心接受治疗的创伤暴露样本 (N = 275) 中采集。参与者完成了对童年期不良经历和良善经历, 创伤暴露以及PTSD和CPTSD症状的评估。

          结果: 结果表明, 童年期不良经历仅通过终身创伤暴露间接影响PTSD和CPTSD症状, 并且对PTSD作用更大。童年期良善经历直接预测了CPTSD症状。

          结论: 良善经历和创伤经历似乎与PTSD和CPTSD症状有独特关联。需要未来研究去探索如何将良善经历整合到现有的心理干预措施中, 以使得从创伤应激中的恢复最大化。

              A developmental psychopathology perspective on child abuse and neglect.

              The purpose of this review is to conceptualize child abuse and neglect within a developmental psychopathology perspective. Toward this end, issues of definition and epidemiology, etiology, and sequelae are addressed. Research and theory on child abuse and neglect with relevance to a developmental perspective is reviewed. Considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the etiology and consequences of child abuse and neglect. Less progress has been made in utilizing this knowledge to inform treatment efforts. Incorporation of a developmental psychopathology perspective into efforts to understand and ameliorate the adverse effects of child abuse and neglect holds considerable promise for advancing research and intervention in the area of child maltreatment. The importance of providing comprehensive and coordinated services that incorporate knowledge of how maltreated youngsters negotiate stage-salient issues of development is stressed. The provision of child-focused treatment, parent-based models of intervention, and ecologically driven approaches to prevention all can benefit from an understanding of the adverse effects that maltreatment exerts on the process of development.
