Trastorno de estrés postraumático complejo en mujeres supervivientes de violencia de género

Abstract

In summary, the present results show that a high percentage of female survivors of IPV would suffer from CPTSD. Thus, they would present both classic PTSD symptoms and the symptoms of DSO. At the same time, this study found that variables such as low resilience, suppression of expression, fear towards the perpetrator and the severity of the violence suffered were related to the severity or presence of CPTSD symptoms. Finally, in the absence of specific instruments to assess this diagnosis in female survivors of IPV, this thesis reports on the latent structure of this disorder and provides that the ITQ is reliable and valid for assessing this diagnosis in this population.
