Abstract |
Introduction |
Peritraumatic dissociation has been shown to be a strong predictor for development of PTSD.
Objective |
This study explored the relationship of four putative FK506 binding protein 5 (FKBP5) genetic variants and childhood trauma in predicting peritraumatic dissociation.
Method |
Extracted DNA from 81 female rape survivors in Cape Town, South Africa were analysed for common FKBP5 polymorphisms. Dissociative experiences, childhood trauma, depression and resilience were also measured.
Results |
Childhood trauma was associated with a significant increase in peritraumatic dissociation, whilst resilience conferred a significant protective effect. No significant associations were observed between the single loci or haplotypes under investigation and peritraumatic dissociation.
Conclusion |
This study provides evidence that, among female rape survivors, exposure to childhood trauma may increase risk of peritraumatic dissociation independent of genetic variation of the FKBP5 gene.
