Objective : Childhood trauma is a risk factor for and resilience is a protective factor against later affective symptoms. The current study aimed to explore the relation between childhood trauma and anxiety symptoms and the mediating effect of resilience in a sample of college students.
Methods : Data from 238 subjects who completed the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the Childhood Trau- ma Questionnaire (CTQ) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were analyzed. Predictors for BAI score and factor analyzed anxiety symptom dimensions were examined using regression models. Path an- alytic models were applied to test the mediating effect of the CD-RICS score on BAI score.
Results : The CTQ score was significantly associated with the BAI score and the mediating effect of CD- RISC was significant as well. The cognitive dimension of anxiety was related to emotional abuse while the so- matic dimension of anxiety to physical neglect. The CD-RISC score did not mediate those relations between anxiety dimensions and individual types of childhood trauma.
Conclusion : Our data suggest that childhood trauma contributes to adult anxiety symptoms. There may be specific relations between types of childhood trauma and anxiety symptoms dimensions.
