Scientific research has explored the impact of violence during adulthood on psychopathology. Fewer efforts have been made from a positive theoretical framework, and no systematic evidence has been provided. This manuscript describes a literature review and meta-analysis on the relationship between victimization experiences and well-being in adulthood. A literature review was performed, and 27 studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review 16 for the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis yielded a medium and significant overall effect size (r = -0.309, p < .001), which indicated that greater victimization experiences partly explain lower well-being outcomes. A set of theoretical and methodological issues are discussed, specifically considering the conceptualization of victimization and well-being as well as the studies design, sample characteristics, measures, and data analysis. Derived from this integrative discussion, some recommendations are also provided for future research.

成年后的受害经历和幸福感：系统评价和荟萃分析。

科学研究已经探索了成年期间的暴力行为对心理病理学的影响。从积极的理论框架进行了很少的努力，并且没有提供系统的证据。该手稿描述了关于成年受害经历与幸福感之间关系的文献综述和荟萃分析。进行了文献综述，有27项研究符合纳入标准的系统评价16项荟萃分析。荟萃分析得出了中等而显着的总体效应值（r = -0.309，p <.001），这表明更多的受害经历在一定程度上解释了幸福感的降低。讨论了一系列理论和方法问题，特别考虑了受害和福祉的概念化以及研究设计，样本特征，度量和数据分析。从这一综合讨论中得出的一些建议也为以后的研究提供了建议。
