According to cultural betrayal trauma theory, within-group violence confers a cultural betrayal that contributes to outcomes, including symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSS). Close relationship with the perpetrator, known as high betrayal, also impacts PTSS. The purpose of the current study is to examine cultural betrayal trauma, high betrayal trauma, and PTSS in a sample of diverse ethnic minority emerging adults. Participants (N = 296) completed the one-hour questionnaire online. Hierarchical linear regression analyses revealed that when controlling for gender, ethnicity, and interracial trauma, high betrayal trauma and cultural betrayal trauma were associated with PTSS. Clinical interventions can include assessments of the relationship with and in-group status of the perpetrator(s) in order to guide treatment planning with diverse survivors.

根据文化背叛创伤理论，群体内暴力会导致文化背叛，从而导致结果，包括创伤后应激障碍 (PTSS) 的症状。与施暴者的密切关系，被称为高度背叛，也会影响 PTSS。本研究的目的是检查不同少数民族新兴成年人样本中的文化背叛创伤、高度背叛创伤和 PTSS。参与者（N = 296) 在线完成了一小时的问卷调查。分层线性回归分析显示，当控制性别、种族和跨种族创伤时，高背叛创伤和文化背叛创伤与 PTSS 相关。临床干预可以包括评估与施暴者的关系和群体内的状态，以指导不同幸存者的治疗计划。
