- W403445687 abstract "This study examined the roles that disclosure and social reaction to incestuous experiences play in the incestuous process and its effects. Attention was devoted to the relationship between event parameters and their prospective effects, as well as to the barriers of communication that sexually victimized women come up against in trying to break the cycle of silence which typically surrounds their experience. This thesis incorporates the notion of power in addressing the above issues, particularly how the perpetrator is empowered and how he becomes de-empowered. A sample of 33 adult volunteers (all female) responded to a questionnaire which combined open and close-ended questions, Semantic ~ifferential items, and social reaction matrices in order to assess the respondents' attitudes to the event, the disclosure and their present situation. Results revealed that a clear distinction can be made between communication patterns in childhood and adult years in terms of disclosure. When children informed family members of their experience, reaction and support were minimal. In turn, the victim felt mixed emotions, including a great deal of confusion. However, in adulthood, accessibility to helping professionals (e.g., social workers) broadens their disclosure network. The need to communicate with as many individuals as possible about their experience was evident, and at that later point, reaction and support to the event were deemed favourable. The survivors claimed to have a more positive self-image and proposed an optimistic future. Disclosure is thus discussed as an important aspect in the de-empowering process of the perpetrator, as well as in assisting in the recovery process of the victim. Recommendations are made, directed particularly at breaking down contemporary barriers of communication for victims of sexual abuse. Future research directions emerging from this exploratory thesis are" @default.
