Mediation by community relations of the relations between reported sexual violence and general functioning. Total effect: β = .15(95 % CI: .02, .30). Total indirect effect: β = .10 (95 % CI: 02, .21). Total direct effect: β = .05 (95 % CI: −.08, .19). The β below the continuous line from reported sexual violence to general functioning represents the total effect of reported sexual violence on general functioning while the β above the dotted line represent the effect of reported sexual violence after community relation was added to the model as a mediator. Approximately 67 % of the effects of reported sexual violence on general functioning is mediated through community relations. The direct effect of reported sexual violence on functioning attenuated and became insignificant (β = .05 (95 % CI: −.08, .19)). All analyses were adjusted for age, duration in captivity and clustering by districts
