ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of abuse experience on complex PTSD in adolescents. It also examined the roles of ego-resilience and social support in the relationship between abuse experience and complex PTSD. Data were obtained from 308 adolescents that had experienced abuse. The results were as follows: First, abuse experience showed high positive correlation with complex PTSD; ego-resilience and social support showed negative correlation with both abuse experience and complex PTSD. Second, multiple regression analysis showed that emotional abuse, neglect, and sexual abuse respectively were significantly able to predict complex PTSD. Finally, the moderating effect of ego-resilience and the mediating effect of social support were significant for the relationship between abuse experience and complex PTSD. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future studies were discussed.
