Summary

The study aims to develop a theoretical model explicating the inter-relationships between Childhood Sexual Abuse (CSA), Partial Vaginismus (PV) and Labor Dystocia (LD), including their associations with Depression (D) as a mediating variable.

The following research hypotheses will be tested:

1. CSA will serve as a risk factor for D, PV and LD.

* pregnant women with a history of CSA will have higher levels of D compared to pregnant women without a history of CSA.
* pregnant women with a history of CSA will have more PV compared to pregnant women without a history of CSA.
* pregnant women with a history of CSA will have higher levels of LD compared to pregnant women without a history of CSA.
2. D will serve as a mediator between prenatal PV and LD.
3. PV will serve as a risk factor for LD.
4. postpartum PV will be affected by childbirth (LD vs. no LD) contingent on the level of D.
