Abstract

Background: Child sexual abuse (CSA) survivors can experience psychological changes and growth as a consequence of their victimization experience, known as posttraumatic growth (PTG). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dimensionality, reliability and validity of the Spanish version of the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory - Short Form (PTGI-SF) (Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996) in a sample of 104 adult survivors of CSA.

Method: Different models of PTGI-SF validated in different languages and samples were tested using Confirmatory Factor Analysis.

Results: The results showed that the original five-factor model exhibited the best goodness of fit. Internal consistency was adequate for the general scale, and acceptable for the five different factors. Furthermore, positive correlations were found between the PTGI-SF total score and psychosocial and mental health problems, as well as gender differences, with women tending to report more PTG than men.

Conclusions: These results suggest that the Spanish PTGI-SF is a brief, reliable, valid self-report measure for assessing PTG experienced by CSA survivors.

西班牙创伤后成长量表-儿童性虐待成年幸存者的简短形式。

背景:儿童性虐待(CSA)幸存者可能会经历心理变化和成长，这是他们受害经历的结果，被称为创伤后成长(PTG)。本研究的目的是评估西班牙语版创伤后成长量表-短表(PTGI-SF) (Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996)在104名成年CSA幸存者样本中的维度、信度和效度。方法:采用验证性因子分析对不同语言、不同样本的PTGI-SF模型进行验证。结果:原五因子模型拟合优度最佳。内部一致性对于一般量表是足够的，对于五个不同的因素是可以接受的。此外，PTGI-SF总分与心理社会和心理健康问题以及性别差异呈正相关，女性倾向于比男性报告更多的PTG。结论:这些结果表明西班牙PTGI-SF是评估CSA幸存者经历PTG的一种简短、可靠、有效的自我报告方法。
