Povezanost med izkušnjo spolne zlorabe v otroštvu in simptomi anksioznosti, depresije in posttravmatske stresne motnje v času COVID-19 : magistrsko delo

Hribar, Anja (author), Repič Slavič, Tanja (mentor)

Obdobje COVID-19 za mnoge pomeni soočanje z raznovrstnimi stiskami. Za travmatiziranega odraslega je doseganje lastnega zdravljenja kot zaščita pred zgodnjo travmo problem, saj sedanjost in podoba prihodnosti v veliki meri služijo kot opozorila, namenjena zaščiti pred travmami, ki so se že zgodile. Ob tem pa se pojavi vprašanje, koliko lahko kot to »opozorilo« služi obdobje COVID-19 za osebe z izkušnjo spolne zlorabe v otroštvu. Avtorica v magistrskem delu raziskuje, kakšna je razlika v doživljanju simptomov depresije, anksioznosti in posttravmatske stresne motnje v času COVID-19 med posamezniki, ki so bili spolno zlorabljeni v otroštvu, in tistimi, ki niso bili spolno zlorabljeni v otroštvu. Vprašalnik je v celoti izpolnilo 281 oseb (M = 26–40 let, SD = 0,72), od tega 249 deklet in 32 fantov. Simptome depresije in anksioznosti so merili z lestvico Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), simptome posttravmatske stresne motnje z vprašalnikom The PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) – Standard, ali je bila oseba spolno zlorabljena v otroštvu, pa so ugotovili z vprašalnikom Maltreatment abuse and exposure scale (MAES). Med udeleženci je bilo 35 % spolno zlorabljenih v otroštvu (N = 99), glede na spol približno vsako tretje dekle (2,7) in vsak peti fant (4,5) ali vsaka tretja oseba (2,9). Med vsemi spolno zlorabljenimi udeleženci v raziskavi je bilo 93 % deklet in 7 % fantov. Raziskava kaže na statistično pomembne razlike v doživljanju PTSM, anksioznosti in depresije v času COVID-19 med osebami, ki so v otroštvu doživele spolno zlorabo, in med tistimi, ki o tem niso poročale, vendar je ob tem potrebno upoštevati tudi nekatere omejitve raziskave.

• Title: The relationship between childhood sexual abuse and anxiety, depression and posttraumatic stress disorder's symptoms during COVID-19

Abstract

For many, the period of COVID-19 means facing a variety of hardships. For a traumatized adult, achieving their own treatment as protection against early trauma is a problem, as the present and the image of the future largely serve as warnings designed to protect against trauma that has already occurred. At the same time, there is a question how much the period of the COVID-19 can serve as this "warning" for people who had experienced childhood sexual abuse. In this master's thesis, the author explores the difference of experiencing the symptoms of depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder in the time of COVID-19 among sexually abused and in sexually non-abused individuals in the childhood. 281 participants (249 girls and 32 boys) completed the DASS, PCL5 and MAES, average age was the period 26 to 40 years (SD = 0,72). Depression's and anxiety's symptoms were measured with Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder with The PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) – Standard, and the history of childhood sexual abuse with Maltreatment abuse and exposure scale (MAES). Among all participants 35 % were sexually abused in the childhood (N = 99), approximately every third girl (2,7) and every fifth boy (4,5) or every third person (2,9). There were 93 % girls and 7 % boys among sexually abused participants. The research shows on a statistically significant differences in the experience of PTSD, anxiety, and depression during COVID-19 among persons who experienced childhood sexual abuse and among those who did not report it. However, some limitations of this study need to be taken into account.
