The purpose of this study is to verify the mediating effects of dissociation experience, relationship addiction, and internalized shame in the relationship between complex trauma experience in childhood-adolescence and interpersonal trauma in adulthood.
Two hundred and thirty-eight adults participated in this study. They were administered the Korean versions of the Trauma Antecedents Questionnaire, Impact of Event Scale-Revised, Dissociative Experiences Scale, Relationship Addiction Questionnaire, and Internalized Shame Scale. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, reliability analysis, and structural equation modeling.
First, dissociation and internalized shame had a double mediating effect in the relationship between complex trauma experience in childhood-adolescence and interpersonal trauma in adulthood. Second, relationship addiction and internalized shame had a double mediating effect in the relationship between complex trauma experience in childhood-adolescence and interpersonal trauma in adulthood. Third, dissociation, relationship addiction, and internalized shame had a triple mediating effect in the relationship between complex trauma experience in childhood-adolescence and interpersonal trauma in adulthood.
Therapeutic intervention for revictimization should address symptoms such as dissociation, relationship addiction, and internalized shame. In addition, people with complex trauma experiences in childhood-adolescence require preventive intervention to avoid further exposure to interpersonal trauma.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychiatric comorbidity rates, severity of psychological disorders, and factors predicting cormorbidities in disaster victims with PTSD.
Three hundred and fifty-three disaster victims who scored over the threshold to be classified as potentially meeting criteria for PTSD were selected data from Long-term Investigation of Disaster Victims and Development of Life-Friendly Relief Policy Technology in South Korea.
First, total comorbidity rate of depression or anxiety disorder only and both depression and anxiety disorder in individuals with PTSD was found in 37.4%. Second, the severity of psychological disorders increased with the number of comorbid disorders. Third, factors predicting comorbidities were sex (women), marital status (unmarried), economic distress (monthly income reduction and recipient of basic living) and low resilience.
The findings may help to identify vulnerable individuals that may develop other psychological disorders in individuals with PTSD and maximize treatment effects.

이 연구는 현재 척수 손상시 널리 적용되는 치료적 중재에 대한 고찰 및 제한점에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 척수 손상은 신경학적 손상과 그에 따른 심각한 근육 위축을 초래한다. 손상 초기에는 산화적 스트레스, 지질 과산화 등과 같은 이차적 손상으로 인한 추가 신경 손상을 막기 위해 약물요법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 또한 삶의 질과 관련성이 높은 보행 능력에 대한 임상 전, 임상 연구는 보행 능력의 회복에 그 촛점을 맞추고 있으며, 이에 대한 예로서, 트레드밀 훈련, 자전거 훈련, 로봇 훈련 등이 시행되고 있다. 최근에는 세포나 조직을 이식하는 이식치료가 많은 관심 속에 연구되고 있으나 안전성을 확보하기 위한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다. 척수손상은 단순히 신체손상뿐아니라 정신건강에도 부정적 영향을 주는 다면적인 손상을 초래할 수 있기때문에 단독치료 접근방법 보다는 심리인지적 치료를 포함한 다양한 치료가 결합된 형태를 고려해야 한다.
