174for changes from baseline to simulated trauma behaviors. Results are discussed in the context of improvements in methods and implications of behavior possibly influencing therapist experience of fatigue during evaluation of a complicated case of a client with significant trauma history.POSTER 52POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH IN BISEXUAL & HETEROSEXUAL SURVIVORS: THE ROLE OF SOCIAL SUPPORTANNA PURCELL (BROWN UNIVERSITY), ROSELYN PETERSON (BROWN UNIVERSITY), GABRIELA L%u00d3PEZ (BROWN UNIVERSITY), ELIZABETH MAYER (BROWN UNIVERSITY), ANANYA SHARMA (BROWN UNIVERSITY), JENNIFER MERRILL (BROWN UNIVERSITY), PRACHI BHUPTANI (BROWN UNIVERSITY), LINDSAY ORCHOWSKI (BROWN UNIVERSITY), JENNIFER JOHNSON (MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY), CARON ZLOTNICK (BROWN UNIVERSITY) Bisexual women experience sexual violence at higher rates and have worse subsequent outcomes. Perceived social support increases the likelihood of experiencing post traumatic growth (PTG) among heterosexual women; however, this association has not been explored with bisexual women. A mediation analysis was conducted with a sample of bisexual and heterosexual, cisgender college women sexual violence survivors (n= 293). Social support partially mediated the association between sexual orientation and PTG; although a direct association remained.POSTER 53RACE AND DIAGNOSIS DISCREPANCYJULIETTE PAULUS (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), METAXIA KESSARIS (ST. JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), MARCUS JOYNER (ST. JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), AIMALOGHI EROMOSELE (ST. JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), CELESTE GABLE (ST. JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), SHERFRAN LOUHIS (ST.

JOHN'S UNIVERSITY) Emergency departments are responsible for a wide range of critical services and the swiftness of patient care can influence clinical outcomes. Triage as determined by illness/injury severity and resource availability plays a pivotal role in healthcare outcomes. Race/ethnicity may inadvertently influence Emergency Severity Index (ESI) assignment for the patients with similar diagnosis. We examined the interaction between race, ESI scores, and diagnosis in an urban community hospital.POSTER 54PSYCHOTHERAPY EFFECTS ON KETAMINE INFUSION(S) THERAPY FOR TREATMENTRESISTANT DEPRESSIONSOFIA SAKOPOULOS (THE NEW SCHOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH) This retrospective chart review study examined the effects of psychotherapy and no psychotherapy with single and repeated (6) ketamine infusion(s) on treatment-resistant depression. Depressive symptoms were assessed by comparing Beck Depression Inventory scores pre- and 30 days post- infusions. Results showed that both single and repeated ketamine infusions, with and without psychotherapy, significantly reduced depressive symptoms. A significant effect for psychotherapy was found, but the number of infusions did not show a significant impact.POSTER 55RECOGNITION, DISCOMFORT, AND RISK ASSESSMENT OF POSTPARTUM OCD AMONG PERINATAL PROVIDERSSASHA KUSHNER (SKIDMORE COLLEGE), ISABELLE SIEGEL (RUTGERS), GABRIELLA PONZINI (DURHAM VA), CASEY SCHOFIELD (SKIDMORE COLLEGE) This project experimentally tested whether diagnostic accuracy, risk assessment, and clinical comfort varied as a function of postpartum mental health disorder among perinatal care professionals. In particular, this study tested the impact of a diagnosis of OCD with harm-related obsessions, OCD with contamination related obsessions, major depressive disorder, or medical control in a newly postpartum patient. Compared to all other presentations, harm-related OCD yielded particularly low diagnostic accuracy, high risk assessment, and low clinical comfort.POSTER 56RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AND ITS EFFECTS ON ANGER COPING: A LATENT PROFILE ANALYSISGABRIELA IGNATOWICZ (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), JULISSA OSORNO (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), ELAINA PONDE (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), BRANDON DIAL (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), MARCUS JOYNER (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), MELISSA PECKINS (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY), ELIZABETH BRONDOLO (SAINT JOHN'S UNIVERSITY) Perceived racial discrimination (PRD) is defined as unfair treatment received because of one's race. Although research has established that PRD contains various subdimensions, less research explores whether unique patterns of discriminatory experiences exist. 174
