Özet:
Child abuse is of epidemic proportions within the United States and, if left untreated, can manifest into adulthood causing significant psychological and emotional distress that follows an identifiable sequela of childhood abuse (CA). Yet, as recognizable as the symptomatology may be, determining childhood abuse as a precipitating factor is difficult due to the propensity for underreporting childhood abuse histories. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI and MMPI-2) have been used to study the symptoms unique to CA survivors, ranging from attempts to identify specific profile patterns of CA survivors to developing scales to detect childhood abuse. This study focused on broadening and strengthening the current research base on detecting childhood abuse in adults by using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory -- 2 -- Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF); a newer objective measure of personality and psychopathology with theoretical underpinnings. Analyses were used to identify items on the MMPI-2-RF that distinguished between the abuse group and the no abuse group at levels of statistical significance. These items formed a new scale (Childhood Abuse Survivor Scale, CASS) that was fairly robust and statistically reliable in identifying individuals with a history of abuse. The results of this study also addressed the moderating effects of religious commitment and the gender differences between individuals with a history of traumatogenic CA using the Higher-Order scales on the MMPI-2-RF. Specific results are discussed, along with recommendations and limitations.
