AB  - Child poly-victimization is a risk factor for psychopathology in adulthood, such as anxiety and depression. Despite that, there is minus investment regarding psychotic symptoms and the mechanisms explaining the relationship between poly-victimization and psychoticism. The purpose of this study is to investigate these variables and explain how they might be associated. A sample of 246 adults participated in this study, aged between 18 and 68 years (M = 37.5, SD = 12.5) and mostly females (76.8%). The results revealed a significant mediating effect of anxiety and depression in the relationship between childhood victimization and psychoticism (b = .12, p = .011), but not a significant moderating effect of gender, ??2(5) = 3.87, p = .568. The affective pathway was supported by our findings. These results suggest the need of additional efforts on prevention of child victimization, as well as of intervention programs aiming to prevent its cumulative effect.

La polivictimización infantil es un factor de riesgo de psicopatología en la edad adulta, tales como la ansiedad y la depresión. A pesar de ello hay escasa inversión en síntomas psicóticos y los mecanismos que explican la relación entre la polivictimización y el psicoticismo. El objetivo del estudio es investigar estas variables y explicar cómo pueden asociarse. En el estudio participaron 246 adultos de edades comprendidas entre los 18 y los 68 años (M = 37.5, DT = 12.5), la mayoría mujeres (76.8%). Los resultados muestran un efecto mediador significativo de la ansiedad y la depresión en la relación entre victimización infantil y el psicoticismo (b = .12, p = .011), pero no un efecto moderador significativo del género, ??2(5) = 3.87, p = .568. Dichos resultados avalan la via afectiva e indican la necesidad de mayores esfuerzos en prevención de la victimización infantil así como en programas de intervención que prevengan su efecto acumulado.
