DescriptionThe present study explored the relationship between gender, race/ethnicity, mutuality and resilience in a sample of adults with histories of child abuse. Based on the theoretical framework proposed by relational-cultural theory, which argues that the main cause of human suffering is disconnection and disconnection can only be healed through new, growth-fostering connections characterized by mutuality, it was hypothesized that there is a significant difference in mutuality scores for different groups divided by gender and race/ethnicity. It was further hypothesized that mutuality is a significant predictor of resilience and trauma related symptoms. The sample consisted of 118 adults with self-reported histories of abuse and recruited through community announcements. Participants reported demographic information and completed measures of resilience, current symptoms of trauma and perceived mutuality. Results partially supported the proposed hypothesis. Implications of the study and suggestions for further research are discussed.
