“…), and that these could have impacts on PTSD symptoms as well. Future research should seek to understand which emotion regulation strategies are most important to assess, and most relevant to PTSD (e.g., Sullivan et al, in press). Third, due to power issues, we could not focus exclusively on trauma-related stressors.…”

Social and health professionals facing gender-based violence in Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) express feelings and thoughts closely connected to their place of work and the users of their services. However, research on professionals’ reflexivity and their implications has not been closely investigated. Therefore, this article will describe representations of IPV among social and health professionals facing gender-based violence as well as their personal feelings in accomplishing their job. Fifty interviews with health and social professionals were analyzed using grounded theory methodology supported by Atlas.ti 8.4. Five macrocategories will describe this phenomenon, leading to the final explicative core category that summarizes professionals’ attitudes toward it. Being “kept in check” among partners, partners and families, services, and institutional duties is the core category that best expressed their feelings. Therefore, implications for services and training will be further discussed.

“…There’s great utility in assessing and identifying strategies of coping in traumatic situations, and in this case with PTSD symptoms related to HIV. Researchers have found that African American women use various strategies to cope, such as utilizing social support, use of religious or spiritual support, or avoidance in some cases (Sullivan, Weiss, Price, Pugh, & Hansen, 2017).…”

Risk and protective factors of posttraumatic stress disorder among African American women living with HIV

We sought to examine risk and protective factors for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among African American women living with HIV. This is a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a randomized trial of an HIV stigma reduction intervention. We examined data from two-hundred and thirty-nine African American women living with HIV. We examined whether age, marital status, level of education, internalized HIV-related stigma, and social support as potential protective and risk factors for PTSD symptoms using logistic regression. We analyzed bi-variate associations between each variable and PTSD symptoms, and constructed a multivariate logistic regression model adjusting for all variables. We found 67% reported clinically significant PTSD symptoms at baseline. Our results suggest that age, education, and internalized stigma were found to be associated with PTSD symptoms (p < 0.001), with older age and more education as protective factors and stigma as a risk factor for PTSD. Therefore, understanding this relationship may help improve assessment and treatment through evidence- based and trauma-informed strategies.
