Anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder: Health conditions of women who cope with conjugal violence. - 404 p.

There is empirical evidence that women experience high rates of conjugal violence that result in adverse physical health conditions. Studies indicate however that women remain in abusive relationships for long periods of time, risking exposure to injury and illness. No single theoretic approach has adequately explained how women cope with conjugal violence, or why women remain in abusive relationships.

520 $a There is empirical evidence that women experience high rates of conjugal violence that result in adverse physical health conditions. Studies indicate however that women remain in abusive relationships for long periods of time, risking exposure to injury and illness. No single theoretic approach has adequately explained how women cope with conjugal violence, or why women remain in abusive relationships.
520 $a The Comprehensive Health Seeking and Coping Paradigm (Nyamathi, 1989) and Stress, Appraisal, and Coping theory (Lazarus and Folkman, 1984) were used to examine relationships among conjugal violence (physical, psychological, sexual), coping (problem-focused [PFC], emotion-focused [EFC]) and specified health conditions (anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], perceived health status, co-morbidity). Reappraisal was explored as an outcome of violence, coping, and perceived current health status for its effect on total and specific (self, child, partner) reappraisal scores. Ten structured questionnaires were administered to 92 ethnically diverse (African-American, European-American, Latina) women residents of five battered women's shelters. A semi-structured interview questionnaire administered to a subset of 23 women obtained information about beliefs regarding relationship termination. Correlational, ANOVA, and regression procedures examined relationships among violence, coping, and health variables for the total sample; and predicted total and specific reappraisal scores reflecting women's post-termination concerns.
520 $a Physical, psychological, and sexual abuse frequently co-occurs. Psychological abuse was related to PFC, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and co-morbidity. Sexual abuse was related to PFC, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and co-morbidity. Mean PFC scores of African-American women were higher than Latinas. Abuse, coping, and health conditions were not related to reappraisal. PTSD significantly influenced self and child reappraisal scores. Interview responses indicated that women remain in abusive relationships to maintain an intact family unit, and because of financial constraints. Women leave their partners when the threat of or actual abuse becomes severe enough to overcome the desire to restore the relationship and maintain the family unit.
