Thematic Analysis of Written Exposures in an Integrated Intervention for PTSD and Alcohol Use Disorder Following Recent Sexual Assault
Sexual assault (SA) is alarmingly prevalent and is associated with increased risk for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Exposure-based treatments are a first-line treatment for PTSD and have potential for implementation early after trauma. However, scarce research has been conducted on the application of exposure following recent SA among people with PTSD symptoms and AUD, which is critical to inform the develop…
Sleep-Related Concerns Mediate the Association Between Cyber-Sexual Victimization and Psychological Distress Among Diverse University Students
Experiences of cyber-sexual violence, that is, sexually aggressive behaviors committed through digital interfaces, are associated with posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and suicidality. Several variables, including sleep, also contribute to PTSS and suicidality risk. This cross-sectional study expands what is already known about cyber-sexual violence and psychological distress by investigating associations between cyber-sexual victimization, s…
Characterizing Engagement with Web-Based Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) for Traumatic Stress and Substance Misuse After Interpersonal Violence
Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) is a widely used public health approach for delivering early intervention for substance misuse. SBIRT adaptations that incorporate content on interpersonal violence and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms may be warranted, as experiences of interpersonal violence are prevalent and associated with greater substance misuse; however, more research is needed to refine the deli…
Does the link between posttraumatic cognitions and eating pathology depend on trauma type? The role of sexual violence
Findings point to low self-worth as a cognitive target for future research and clinical efforts aimed at addressing trauma-related distress and eating pathology concurrently, especially among individuals with a history of sexual violence. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
Reclaiming Pleasure
Substantial research documents the psychosocial benefits of sexual activity, including heightened positive affect and lowered negative affect following sexual encounters. However, it is important to examine whether affective benefits of consensual sexual activity are present among individuals who have also experienced non-consensual sexual activity (i.e. sexual assault), given that sexual assault may have harmful consequences for sexual functioni…
Is the Risk for Sexual Revictimization Cumulative? A Prospective Examination
Alcohol Use Before Sexual Violence and Cognitive Appraisals
The current study examined two cognitive appraisals-labeling (identifying an unwanted sexual experience as sexual violence) and self-blame-as potential mechanisms between survivor alcohol use before sexual violence and three help-seeking barriers (minimization, negative treatment, and social-emotional barriers) among non-service-seeking sexual violence survivors. Participants were 141 undergraduate women who completed self-report measures. Three …
