Özet:
Child abuse has long been associated with severe negative consequences. Research in this area has largely focused on the effects of physical and sexual abuse, while less is known about the long-term effects of psychological abuse in childhood. Additionally, little is known about specific factors that might account for dysfunction, as well as factors that might lessen the negative impact of psychological abuse. To address these issues, a sample of 525 adults was asked to complete online self-report questionnaires. Only adults who endorsed a history of childhood psychological abuse were included in the final analysis (n = 362). Regression analyses revealed that childhood psychological abuse predicted anxiety in adulthood, and that anxiety sensitivity acted as a mediator in this relationship. Specifically, when childhood psychological abuse increased, anxiety increased due to an increase in anxiety sensitivity. However, contrary to predictions, social support provided no protective benefits against higher anxiety sensitivity or higher overall anxiety. Furthermore, exploratory analyses revealed significant positive correlations between childhood psychological abuse and both relationship anxiety and relationship avoidance in adulthood. These results demonstrate the long-term negative impact of childhood psychological abuse on both psychological and interpersonal functioning. These findings also have important treatment implications for individuals suffering from anxiety disorders following a history of psychological abuse. Furthermore, the lack of benefit conferred by social support highlights our limited understanding of factors that can protect against the negative effects of childhood psychological abuse. Future directions and treatment implications are discussed.
