The purpose of the current study was to measure the prevalence of traumatic events among 479 male convicts imprisoned in Central Jail of Mianwali (CJM) and Central Jail of Faisalabad (CJF) Punjab, Pakistan. The study was aimed to explain the relationship between multiple trauma exposure and comorbid psychiatric symptoms among convicts. Data was collected by using self-reported Cross-Cutting Symptoms Measure (American Psychiatric Association. American Psychiatric Publication, Washington, D.C; 2013) and Early Trauma Inventory-SR Short Form (ETISR-SF) (Bremner et al. J Nerv Ment Dis, 195(3), 211–218; 2007). ETISR-SF was translated into Urdu and confirmed the four-factor structure for the construct measuring general trauma, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Findings of the study showed that perceived severity and emotional experience at the time of traumatic event mediated the predictive relationship between trauma exposure and comorbid symptomology. The relationship was strengthened by urban residential area and multiple cases filed in current conviction among convicts imprisoned in central jails of Punjab, Pakistan. Findings have implication for a unique and at-risk sample of convicts by highlighting the areas which should be targeted in order to improve the mental health of prisoners and control violent reoffending.

解释早期生活创伤与巴基斯坦罪犯共病精神症状之间的预测关系

本研究的目的是测量被关押在巴基斯坦旁遮普省 Mianwali 中央监狱 (CJM) 和费萨拉巴德中央监狱 (CJF) 的 479 名男性罪犯的创伤事件发生率。该研究旨在解释多次创伤暴露与罪犯共病精神症状之间的关系。通过使用自我报告的交叉症状测量(美国精神病学协会。美国精神病学出版物,华盛顿特区;2013 年)和早期创伤清单-SR 简表 (ETISR-SF) (Bremner 等人 J Nerv Ment Dis) 收集数据, 195(3), 211–218; 2007)。ETISR-SF 被翻译成乌尔都语,并确认了测量一般创伤、身体、情感和性虐待的结构的四因素结构。研究结果表明,创伤事件发生时感知到的严重程度和情绪体验介导了创伤暴露与共病症状之间的预测关系。城市住宅区和巴基斯坦旁遮普省中央监狱关押的罪犯中的多起目前被定罪的案件加强了这种关系。研究结果通过强调应该针对哪些领域来改善囚犯的心理健康和控制暴力重犯,从而对独特的高风险罪犯样本产生影响。
