| Descripción: | The objective of this research is to establish the relationship between violence against women and symptoms of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. The sample is made up of 110 women from Santa Rosa (Tungurahua, Ecuador), selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling with inclusion criteria. For this study, a non-experimental, quantitative, descriptive and correlational cross-sectional design methodology was used. The assessment was conducted using the Conflict Resolution Tactics Scale (CTS-2) to assess Violence, the Beck Depression Inventory-II to assess Depressive Symptoms, and the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptom Severity Scale (Egs-R) to assess Posttraumatic Stress. Among the results, it was found that the study participants present a high level of violence in the Devaluation Aggression dimension, as well as a moderate level of depressive symptomatology; in the post-traumatic stress variable, all values are below the cut-off point of the instrument. Low positive and statistically significant correlations were found. Among the main limitations of the study, it was found that, due to its descriptive nature, it is not possible to establish an explanation for the associations described. |
