In Recovering From Intimate Partner Violence, Women's Reasons for Forgiving Matter
For women who experience intimate partner violence (IPV), the practice of forgiveness can be an important part of the process of recovery. However, the forgiveness of abusers also brings increased risk of exploitation and return to abusers. This study focused on data contributed by 67 women who experienced IPV and forgave their abusers. It examined the prevalence of four reasons for forgiving (i.e., whether women forgave for the sake of themselve…
The dyadic effects of racial discrimination
Findings underscore the value of measuring patterns of RD and its consequences among family members. By not considering the influence of family members' experiences, the negative psychological and social consequences of RD may be underestimated.

Perceived Barriers and Benefits of Exercise Among Women Survivors of Sexual Violence by Physical Activity Level and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Status
An online, cross-sectional survey of women survivors of sexual violence (SV; N = 355) gathered information on perceived barriers and benefits of exercise, along with exercise level and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. This study reports exercise perceptions and provides comparisons by exercise level and PTSD status. Differences by exercise level were found in life enhancement, physical performance, psychological outlook, and social …
Exercise Preferences among Men Survivors of Sexual Violence by PTSD and Physical Activity Level
This analysis reported interest in exercise programs made for men survivors of sexual violence (SV), preferences for the structure and content of these programs, and comparisons by physical activity level and PTSD status. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 198 men aged 18–65, with a history of SV, in the USA. Most respondents indicated interest in exercise programs for them. Men with PTSD were most interested. Men favored exercising at-…
Report of the ACBS Task Force on the strategies and tactics of contextual behavioral science research
Throughout its history the strategy and tactics of contextual behavioral science (CBS) research have had distinctive features as compared to traditional behavioral science approaches. Continued progress in CBS research can be facilitated by greater clarity about how its strategy and tactics can be brought to bear on current challenges. The present white paper is the result of a 2 1/2-year long process designed to foster consensus among representa…

Community Healing and Resistance Through Storytelling
Racial trauma, an ongoing consequence of historical trauma, has deleterious effects on the well-being of Africana communities. The psychological literature primarily reflects individual processes in the relationship between racial trauma and healing. Going beyond individualistic approaches, we present a community healing framework informed by multidisciplinary scholarship: Community Healing and Resistance Through Storytelling ( C-HeARTS). Three m…
Gender Differences in Response to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Among Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation New Dawn Veterans
Still We Rise
Sex trafficking is the use of force, fraud, or coercion for the purposes of sexual exploitation. Among those who are at greater risk for sex trafficking are women, girls, impoverished persons, runaways, homeless persons, persons who have prior trauma histories, and ethnically marginalized persons, including African Americans. The short- and long-term consequences of sex trafficking are physical, sexual, psychological, social, economic, and spirit…

How qualitative methods contribute to intervention adaptation
This paper describes how to use qualitative data for adapting an existing behavioral intervention to a new population using a specific illustration-the adaptation of the Women's CoOp HIV intervention to the needs of women prisoners who have experienced interpersonal violence. We describe and illustrate how we conducted each step in the adaptation process, including (1) choosing a well-matched intervention to adapt, (2) setting specific goals for …
Predictors of differential PTSD treatment outcomes between veteran and civilian women after cognitive processing therapy
Future research should be focused on further understanding and addressing these 2 treatment outcome predictors in an effort to reduce the gap in PTSD treatment outcomes between veterans and civilians. (PsycINFO Database Record
Relationship between negative social reactions to sexual assault disclosure and mental health outcomes of Black and White female survivors
The results provide further support for detrimental effects of negative reactions on Black and White survivors and highlight the importance of educating people in the community about sexual assault and how to respond in more supportive ways. (PsycINFO Database Record
Disclosing traumatic experiences
The type and severity of traumatic events differentially predict negative posttraumatic outcomes, with betrayal traumas (in which the victim is perpetrated by someone s/he trusts) touted as the most harmful. Although disclosure is considered an important component of the "healing process," nondisclosure and delayed disclosure persist. This study explored factors predicting and the context surrounding disclosure as well as the link between disclos…
Associations between past trauma, current social support, and loneliness in incarcerated populations
Prisoners are a vulnerable population with higher rates of trauma than community populations. Social support is important for both in–prison adjustment and post-release community re-entry. Loneliness, a related construct to social support, has been found to be associated with elevated rates of suicidal ideation and behavior, depression, and hopelessness in incarcerated populations. This study explored the relationship of past physical, sexual, an…
The impact of betrayal trauma on the tendency to trust
Early experiences of violation perpetrated by close others, or betrayal traumas, may interfere with developing social capacities, including the ability to make healthy decisions about whom to trust. Betrayal trauma theory posits that survivors of trauma are at increased risk of making inaccurate trust decisions in interpersonal contexts, thus interfering with intimacy and elevating risk for revictimization. The current study examined the impact o…
Surviving the Storm
African American women are at high risk for sexual assault. In addition, many African American women endorse the use of social support and religiosity to cope with trauma. The current study investigates the relationship between these two coping strategies and posttrauma symptoms in a sample of 413 African American female sexual assault survivors using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. Findings indicated that survivors…
Betrayal and revictimization
The link between childhood sexual abuse and subsequent sexual, emotional, and physical revictimization has been widely reported. The literature is limited, however, in its exploration of the extent to which the level of betrayal inherent in a given childhood traumatic experience affects the likelihood of experiencing similar revictimization in adolescence and adulthood. This study assessed revictimization within a betrayal trauma framework among …
