We discuss these findings in the context of the need for treatments focusing on increasing T-RF in mothers and children in the context of abuse to facilitate adaptation and reduce the intergenerational risk. Importantly in terms of identifying potential protective factors, maternal T-RF is associated with lower likelihood of CSA exposure in children of CSA-exposed mothers. Why sexual abuse An exploration of the intergenerational hypothesis. Sexual abuse trauma among professional women: Validating the trauma symptom checklist-40 (TSC-40). Conclusion: The findings show that the presence of either maternal or child CSA is associated with more child psychological difficulties. This study examined vulnerability or resilience to intergenerational sexual abuse. There is converging evidence of intergenerational patterns of risk and mothers who are CSA survivors are up to 3.6 times as likely to have children who are also exposed to sexual violence compared to mothers who were not abused (Oates et al., 1998 McCloskey, 2000 Testa et al., 2011 Wearick-Silva et al., 2014. The assumption of homogeneity of variances was tested via Levene’s F test, F (60) 1.15, p 0.288.Cohen’s d was estimated at 0.68, which is a medium effect, based on Cohen’s (1992) guidelines. Mothers' and children's CSA histories predicted children's internalizing and externalizing symptoms, such that CSA exposure for mother or child was associated with greater symptomatology in children. A key result was that among CSA-exposed mothers, higher maternal T-RF regarding their own abuse was associated with lower likelihood of child CSA-exposure. Results: Children of CSA-exposed mothers were more likely to have experienced CSA. Mothers completed the Parent Development Interview (PDI), which yielded assessments of RF regarding their own experiences of abuse, and also reported on their children's internalizing and externalizing symptoms. Trauma can be passed on to future generations through how a parent interacts with their children, the behaviors and patterns children see their. Methods: One hundred and eleven children ( M age = 9.53 years 43 sexual abuse victims) and their mothers ( M age = 37.99 63 sexual abuse victims) participated in this study. It’s also known as intergenerational trauma. Further, we were particularly interested in examining whether maternal reflective functioning about their own trauma (T-RF) was associated with a lower likelihood of children's abuse exposure (among children of CSA-exposed mothers). 2021 85:101997.Objective: The aim of the current study was to investigate associations, unique and interactive, between mothers' and children's histories of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and children's psychiatric outcomes using an intergenerational perspective. For Black women, intergenerational trauma is especially intense due to its convergence of racialized, gendered, and classed dis-privilege. We hope you find them insightful and thought-provoking.
