TY - JOUR PY - 2004// TI - Revictimization and interpersonal resource loss predicts PTSD among women in substance-use treatment JO - Journal of Traumatic Stress A1 - Schumm, Jeremiah A.

These adulthood experiences were, in turn, hypothesized to increase risk for current posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). High-risk women were recruited from an innercity drug and alcohol treatment center (N = 105). Interpersonal resource losses, partner-produced physical assault, adulthood rape, CPA, and CSA had direct effects on PTSD. CPA and CSA also had indirect effects on PTSD through rape, which, in turn, predicted PTSD. Results suggest that the traumatic origins of current PTSD among substance-using women are multifaceted and support the importance of considering interpersonal coping resources in evaluating and treating female substance users.
