The present study analyzes the symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in women victims of sexual violence based on the age at which the violence took place and the type of violence (punctual or repeated). An observational, retrospective cohort study was carried out with a sample of users of the Association of Women Victims of Sexual Assault (AMUVI) and victims of some type of sexual violence. They were evaluated with an own elaboration semi-structured interview of and with the Scale of severity of symptoms of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. The results indicate that, although there are no significant differences between groups, women over 20 years of age and victims of point violence present a greater number of symptoms, and there are some significant differences depending on the frequency. These results invite us to continue investigating this phenomenon.
