OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the psychological impact of abuse and negative life events during childhood, adolescence and adulthood in patients recruited from a sexual health clinic. METHOD: Sixty-two patients with a sexually transmitted disease (STD) were matched on age and gender with a community sample. Forty-two patients without an STD formed another control group. Subjects self-reported their trauma histories and current psychological distress. RESULTS: Compared to controls, categories of abuse and negative life events were more prevalent in STD patients, particularly Physical/Sexual Abuse in adolescence and adulthood. Both within the STD and community samples, a negative life event category that measured illness/death of loved ones during childhood and adolescence predicted current psychological distress. In addition, Control Abuse (a subtype of psychological abuse involving selfish manipulation and deprivation) in childhood and adolescence strongly predicted current psychological distress in STD patients. In general, effects were stronger in females than in males. Psychological/Verbal Abuse did not independently predict current psychological distress, but accompanied other abuse types and possibly amplified their adverse effects. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that multiple types of abuse and negative life events increase the risk of STD infection, perhaps by increasing the likelihood of multiple sexual partners. These patients may ignore social conventions of sexual behaviour because they are bitter about past life experiences. Alternatively, they may persistently search for affection to compensate for a lack of affection in the past. 相似文献

This paper explores a recent interdisciplinary project which brought together a visualization expert, an art historian, and an architectural historian, to study the ruins of Saint George of the Greeks Cathedral in Famagusta, eastern Cyprus, then create a virtual three-dimensional reconstruction of it. The motivation for this work, funded by Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, was to apply existing knowledge and expertise to a difficult, and very particular, heritage question on this Eastern Mediterranean Island. The creation of such a model could, it was felt, not only reiterate the academic value of thorough archival work married to state of the art technology, but also have very practical reverberations in terms of future heritage welfare and education via this ‘borderless’ domain. 相似文献
