The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships among severity of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, shame-proneness, and guilt-proneness in battered women. Other more specific objectives were to examine prevalence of PTSD in a sample of battered women and examine the influence of multiple types of traumatic events, severity of battering, shame-proneness, and guilt-proneness on overall severity of PTSD symptoms and PTSD diagnosis. Lewis' (1971) theories on shame and guilt and Joseph, Williams, and Yule's (1997) integrative model of psychosocial factors relating to adaptation to traumatic stress provided the theoretical framework for this study. A descriptive correlational study was conducted. A convenience sample of 100 battered women was recruited from shelter and non-residential agencies for battered women. Participants completed self-report instruments including the Test of Self-Conscious Affect (TOSCA), the Partner Abuse Scale Physical (PASPH), the Posttraumatic Stress Diagnostic Scale (PDS) and a demographic questionnaire. Seventy-six percent of the women fully met criteria for PTSD diagnosis. Ninety-two percent of the women reported two or more types of multiple traumatic events in addition to intimate partner battering. Pearson correlation coefficients were computed to analyze the relationship between overall severity of PTSD symptoms and other variables, including types of multiple traumatic events, severity of battering, shame-proneness, and guilt-proneness. Significant positive correlations were found among multiple types of traumatic events, severity of battering, and severity of PTSD symptoms. However, the expected associations between shame-proneness and guilt-proneness with the severity of PTSD symptoms were not supported by the findings of this study. Multiple types of traumatic events and severity of battering were important contributing factors to the development of PTSD diagnosis and severity of PTSD of symptoms. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis revealed that multiple types of traumatic events and severity of battering predicted 31% of the variance in overall severity of PTSD symptoms. Hierarchical logistic regression analysis indicated that severity of battering over and above multiple types of traumatic events contributed to the outcome variable PTSD diagnosis. The model was more successful in predicting the PTSD diagnostic status group (90.8%) than the non diagnostic PTSD group (33.3%); the overall prediction was 77% correct. Implications for nursing practice and future search are discussed.
