Abstract:
This essay reviews the evidence regarding the impact of childhood abuse (e.g., physical, sexual, psychological, maltreatment, and neglect) on long-term outcomes, such as violence, criminality, abuse, mental health problems, and physical health problems, in adolescence and adulthood. Overall, childhood abuse is highly detrimental to these outcomes, with evidence suggesting that “more is worse” when it comes to its lasting effects. This essay also briefly reviews the theoretical bases upon which the research regarding childhood abuse and later outcomes is founded and discusses the evidence regarding moderating variables, such as age, gender, and race/ethnicity. Finally, it concludes with a discussion of the theoretical and methodological limitations in the research and suggests avenues for future endeavors to consider.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the problem of assessing opiate use and psychological comorbidity, and discusses psychological strategies for coping with chronic pain. In 1995, the American Pain Society and others embraced pain as the fifth vital sign; yet pain differs from the other vital signs by being subjective, as opposed to being objectively measured, implying a psychological aspect. Psychological evaluation of a pain patient assesses underlying psychosocial aspects that play a role in reported pain symptoms. Early childhood abuse increases the likelihood of chronic pain later in life; pain may be precipitated by an emotional or physical trauma that reawakens anxiety from the original childhood experience. Precipitating traumas can include divorce, job loss, legal issues, grief, or death anniversaries. The earlier and more extensive the childhood trauma, the earlier and more extensive the physical report of pain in adulthood, and the greater the perceived need for opioid analgesia.

Abstract:
I’m not sure where to begin my story. My name is Amanda Keller, and in the late 1990s, when I was 13, I was placed in out-of-home placement by a psychiatrist in Cincinnati, Ohio. I’d been abused most of my childhood by my stepfather, who was a sadist. I have a number of poorly healed fractures to testify to what he did to me physically. Psychologically, the effect of being tortured for years really took its toll, and I think the psychological impact was much worse. In addition to being in a bad mental state because of what was done to me, I was also not well because of what wasn’t done for me. I’d reported the abuse formally four times to professionals before anything happened. Relatives and neighbors were aware of what was happening, and I guess those that knew the most didn’t know what to do. One of the times I reported my stepdad we moved to a different state, so I can’t blame the police on that occasion, but then again, no one saved me. This effect of not being helped when I reached out, which is a scary thing to do when your relative plans his abuses, made me hate everyone, in particular adults....

Abstract:
First-ever biography of controversial journalist and author Randy Shilts, one of the nation’s first openly gay reporters for a major daily newspaper. Known for his tenacity in reporting, he quickly became the “AIDS scribe” among American journalists. His work was not without controversy, however, with posthumous reviews of his “new journalism” techniques called into question, including the accuracy of some of his research. Review is provided of Shilts’s childhood struggles with physical abuse, his adult battles with alcohol and drug addiction, and his ultimate death from AIDS. The critical review of Shilts is most focused on his 1987 book, And the Band Played On: Politics, People and the AIDS Epidemic – although his work on The Mayor of Castro Street: The Life and Times of Harvey Milk (1982) and Conduct Unbecoming: Gays & Lesbians in the U.S. Military (1993)

Abstract:
Despite its prevalence, the etiology and pathogenesis of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) has yet to be fully elucidated due to this disorder’s complexity. Research into causal and contributory factors has been limited, yet there is emerging evidence that environmental factors play an important role and, furthermore, that specific environmental factors may be characteristic of BDD and possibly contribute to the development and maintenance of the disorder. Sociocultural pressures to achieve physical perfection; factors such as teasing/bullying, abuse, and perceived childhood maltreatment; heighted aesthetic sensitivity; and possibly certain personality traits may all be important. Factors such as these, coupled with biologic factors that include genetic heritability and deficits in visual processing, may significantly contribute to both the development and maintenance of the disorder. More research is needed to understand the specific factors that lead to this disorder to better assist with the development of evidence-based psychological treatment.

Abstract:
The prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in persons with HIV is higher than in the general population. Adults with HIV are likely to have experienced traumatic events that place them at risk for developing PTSD. Among women with HIV, PTSD may be more common than depression, suicidality, and substance use. The high prevalence of PTSD is related to increased exposure to traumatic experiences such as physical violence and sexual assault, including intimate partner violence and childhood sexual abuse. The co-occurrence of PTSD and HIV creates complex challenges for both the management of HIV and treatment of PTSD. Individuals with PTSD and HIV experience more rapid illness progression and poorer health-related quality of life, with health-compromising behaviors such as substance use, high-risk sexual behavior, poor utilization of services, and low adherence to antiretroviral therapy. This chapter addresses the complexities of HIV, trauma, and PTSD and recommends trauma-informed care in the treatment of people living with HIV and AIDS.
