abstract="This study examined whether shame-proneness is associated with dissociation among abused women. Participants were 99 hospitalized women with and without reported histories of childhood sexual abuse. Hypotheses were that childhood sexual abuse and shame-proneness would each be associated with dissociation, and that the relationship between sexual abuse and dissociation would be greater among women with higher shame-proneness. Multiple regression analysis indicated that shame-proneness was independently related to dissociation, but childhood sexual abuse was not. As predicted, the combination of shame-proneness and childhood sexual abuse was associated with dissociation.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
