Women in resource-constrained, postdisaster, urban enclaves, such as Haiti’s Cité Soleil, are at risk for nonpartner sexual violence (NPSV) by multiple perpetrators, and subsequently, psychological trauma and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS. These biopsychosocial risks suggest that NPSV victims may benefit from an adapted evidence-based intervention for sexually transmitted infection (EBI-STI) that includes a trauma component. Yet there is a dearth of knowledge on trauma symptoms experienced by victims in Haiti. We administered a Haitian Kreyòl version of Trauma Symptom Checklist (TSC-40), including its subscales (depression, dissociation, anxiety, sexual problems, sleep disturbance, sexual abuse trauma) to women in Cité Soleil, comparing victims’ scores (n = 54) with those of nonvictims (n = 179). After controlling for child sexual abuse, arrest, transactional sex, and sociodemographics, being a victim was associated with higher scores on the full TSC-40, and subscales of anxiety and sexual abuse trauma index. These increased scores of victims underscore the need to incorporate trauma in adaptation of EBI-STI for Haitian NPSV victims like our sample.

海地城市太阳城社区非伴侣性暴力受害者和非受害者的创伤症状比较

在资源有限的灾后城市飞地中的妇女,例如海地的太阳城,有多重犯罪者遭受非伴侣性暴力(NPSV)的风险,随后遭受心理创伤和包括艾滋病毒/艾滋病在内的性传播感染(STIs)。这些生物社会心理风险表明,NPSV受害者可能会受益于针对性传播感染(EBI-STI)的适应性循证干预措施,其中包括创伤因素。然而,海地受害者缺乏有关创伤症状的知识。我们向太阳城的妇女施行了海地克雷雅(HaitianKreyòl)版本的创伤症状清单(TSC-40),包括其分量表(抑郁,分离,焦虑,性问题,睡眠障碍,性虐待创伤),比较了受害者的得分(n= 54)和非受害者(n = 179)。在控制了儿童的性虐待,逮捕,性交易和社会人口统计学特征之后,成为受害者与整个TSC-40得分较高,以及焦虑和性虐待创伤指数的分量表有关。受害者数量的增加强调了需要像我们的样本一样将创伤纳入适应海地NPSV受害者的EBI-STI中。
