Il presente studio si è proposto di indagare la relazione tra maltrattamento infantile, alterazioni nella consapevolezza interocettiva e sintomi di somatizzazione. Trecentosettanta partecipanti adulti (54% femmine) hanno compilato una batteria di strumenti ad autosomministrazione per la misurazione dei traumi infantili, della consapevolezza interocettiva, e dei sintomi somatici. Sono state osservate associazioni significative tra le variabili oggetto dello studio. Attraverso una cluster analysis sono stati identificati tre sottogruppi, che differivano per tipologia e numero di esperienze traumatiche infantili. Il cluster che includeva i soggetti pluritraumatizzati mostrava maggiori compromissioni nella consapevolezza interocettiva e maggiore sintomatologia somatica. Le esperienze traumatiche nella relazione di attaccamento possono avere un impatto negativo e duraturo sulla consapevolezza interocettiva e sull’integrazione psicosomatica.;

Keywords:Maltrattamento infantile, consapevolezza interocettiva, sintomi somatici, psicosomatica, psicopatologia dello sviluppo.
