Questions related to Trauma
I am interested in finding scholarly, or peer-reviewed articles that discuss therapy dogs and schools.
In developing countries violence is one of the most important determinants of trauma. Some patients recurring this situation are usually implicated in delinquency (or poses history of criminality). Is there any way to measure the degree of criminality in a clinical setting?
What are the models in Trauma theory? How Caruth's model differs from that of others?
I am researching mindfulness approaches in relation to healing from trauma. More specifically, I am interested in these approaches with children. Thanks!
I'm working on a theory and would like to know if it's possible to change the brain in targeted areas without removing the essence of the person
I am Mi'kmaw of the Mi'kmaq, one of five tribes belonging to the Wabanaki of Maine. I am earning a Certification for Alcohol and Drug Counseling (CADC). I want to gain knowledge of tailoring treatment to the cultural perspectives of indigenous peoples and others not of the white-based, middle-class American culture. In all of the literature I have read, there is a lot of mention of the need for such knowledge in the field of psychology, but I need evidence that the research for this is taking place.
or is it only used in elective cases. Would be grateful if any supporting references are attached

Hello, all! I am new here and would love help for this question.
I am running a waitlist control study in which the Independent Variable is receiving a treatment manual for trauma. Group 1 receives 8 weeks of the treatment first, followed by 8 weeks where Group 2 receives the treatment. My advisor suggests that we run a multiple regression on the data at the end (quantitative measures of spiritual wellness and spiritual trauma). I am using G*Power to calculate my needed sample size and I am unsure of how to go about finding out my sample size. Here are my requirements for power:
Effect size f=0.25,
alpha err prob=0.05,
Power (1-Beta err prob)=0.8,
Number of groups=2(I believe, based on my design listed above)
Thank you very much!
I am working on the methodology section for my dissertation and would like to use the Early Trauma Inventory to collect data on retrospective child trauma and the developmental timing of first trauma occurrence. Ideally, I would like to collect all of my dissertation data virtually (online) but am aware of the potential challenges that can arise when collecting trauma data. I am looking for advice/tips/protocols for collecting retrospective trauma data virtually in the safest and most ethical manner.
I am completing a dissertation on attachment, betrayal trauma and gender and how these predict borderline personality disorder. I want to complete a hierarchical regression to measure the interactions between the variables but have come out with two attachment scores, one for anxious and one for avoidant. How can I transform these into levels for one variable, as I want my IV to be 'attachment', rather than having two separate IVs, one for anxious and one for avoidant attachment.
I am thinking I may have to just have two regression models, one with anxious attachment and one with avoidant. I'm a bit concerned that if I run it all as one, the anxious and avoidant attachment scores will be included in the interaction and cause some confusion when interpreting the analysis.
I hope this makes sense! Please ask me to clarify if not
Dear all,
I am currently working on an oral corpus containing witnesses from ex-deported women. I would be interested in exploring the corpus looking for verbal and para-verbal features related to trauma experience and recalling. What kinds of patterns should I look at? Could you advise me on some relevant literature on this matter?
Thank you in advance!
For various reasons it can sometimes become necessary to change the mindset, to change our attitude to something, eg following trauma or illness. We can re-examine our beliefs with reasonable logic and be successful in turning a negative mindset into a positive one. However, how do we do that without our emotions and misinterpretations of the world getting in the way?
I am starting my dissertation topic. I have rewritten a few times over the last year while I was studying. I want to study the effects of trauma that help to develop leaders. However, I want to show a path that led to the leaders, and I do not want to assume which leadership style has been most developed back a trauma effects on the person.
My thought process is looking at parental style first having leaders do a survey to provide me with which parental style the leader had in their life. Then to look at their religious/spiritual influence. Then to their education through learning theories. Their personal resiliency. Then if trauma was a part of their life. Then which leadership style they consider themselves.
*What main factors influence people to become leaders? Does parental style, religion/spirituality, education through learning theories, resiliency, and trauma play a role in becoming leaders? What type of leader does the person become if these factors play a role in their development?
Dear all, I'm looking for a measure instrument for C-PTSD to use in research..
I've found the ICD-11 Trauma Questionnaire, and I've seen that has a good validity and reliability, but I don't see that it has been used much in research.
Does anyone have another recommendation to measure C-PTSD symptoms in research? Or ICD-11 Trauma Questionnaire it's ok?
Thanks
In this preprint (Schwarz, 2021) they indicate that the use of masks has a number of negative effects on children and adolescents, although they were unable to distinguish between the use of masks and the psychological and traumatic disruption caused directly by living through a pandemic with all its consequences.
"53% of children suffer from headaches.
49% of children are less cheerful.
44% of children no longer want to go to school.
38% of children suffer from learning problems.
25% of children develop new fears.
15% of children play less".

In any case, although I do not like to use preprints, it is useful for me to reflect on the impact that the pandemic may have on children. I have two daughters and I am beginning to observe symptoms of stress, anguish and sadness, with occasional moments of crying for no apparent reason. It is not the scope of my research, but I am concerned about this.
How do you think this will end?
NOTES FOR CONSPIRANOIDS:
As I mentioned in my discussion, talking about this preprint "...they were unable to distinguish between the use of masks and the psychological and traumatic disruption caused directly by living through a pandemic with all its consequences.". Face masks are very important to fight against flu and SARS-CoV2. The incidence of flu this year is very low due to the use of face masks, and it's important to wear masks to avoid COVID disease and the collapse of the hospitals.
Cherry-picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of pointing to individual cases or data that seem to confirm a particular position while ignoring a significant portion of related and similar cases or data that may contradict that position. In this case, many COVID negationists are using papers like this one to attribute that masks are bad, and this is absolutely CHERRY-PICKING, especially when in the paper's conclusions it states the following:
"It is very important to us that our results do not lead to parents developing a fundamentally negative opinion of mask-wearing among children. Many children and adolescents are grateful that they can continue to attend school thanks to the AHA+L rules and would like adults to have a positive opinion about the masks, especially since the type of mask worn can usually be chosen. Furthermore, there are children for whom the mask may be a necessary aid, for example, if they are immunosuppressed after chemotherapy. Unreflective negative statements about the mask can cause a nocebo effect and unnecessarily stress children: it is better to listen and take it seriously when problems arise. "

Hi there!
In his 2014 masterpiece The Body Keeps the Score, van der Kolk claims that traumatized people may "try to cultivate an illusory sense of control in highly dangerous situations" in an attempt to master the physiological and psychological consequences of their trauma. Is there any research which shows that emergency workers (police officers in particular) have a higher incidence of trauma prior to joining the job? That is, is there any research which proves that trauma may be a motivator that pushes people to become emergency workers? I'm acquainted with the idea of the "wounded healer", but I'm interested in the scientific literature on the topic as it relates not to therapists but to emergency workers.
Thanks a lot.
Best,
Marc
I would like to use the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire in my dissertation, but I was hoping to collect my data online to minimize contact due to the pandemic. Is it possible to use this assessment online? Are there any copyright restrictions?
My name is Natalie, and I am a graduate student at the University of Tulsa. I am using the Trauma History Questionnaire for my dissertation to assess trauma exposure. My advisor is new to trauma research, and we are starting the data entry process for this measure. We plan on looking at the number of trauma exposures if traumas occurred during childhood or adulthood (or both), and if possible, looking at revictimization rates.
We are finding this measure complex to enter and build our SPSS dataset for. Our participants had put age ranges for when events occurred and used vague developmental stages to answer the age at which trauma occurred (putting "adolescence" or "high school," for example), to name a few of the issues we have run into. We have started to enter the data by creating multiple rows for each participant, with a row for each age that a trauma type has occurred.
We are wondering what the best way to build a dataset is for this measure. We welcome any insight! We tried to input this measure into an online survey platform such as RedCAP or Qualtrics. However, we were not able to input this measure as flexibly as needed. If you have any insight on that process, I would appreciate that as well!
We would appreciate any guidance on this issue. Thank you!
What do you think about this statement:
EMDR is the least invasive treatment for patient and therapist. Therefore, EMDR should be first choice.
Any reference to scientific literature is highly appreciated.
I'm looking for a questionnaire or survey the focuses on "reason for migration". I know there are questionnaires that include "reason for migration" items, but they tend to be focused on acculturation or some form of trauma.
Trauma is a well established cause of bruising and hematoma formation in patient's taking oral anticoagulants and there are some case reports of this occurring spontaneously but is this, as one would imagine a rare event ?
I would be most interested to learn of colleagues' observations.

In looking at trauma can one define trauma as a human right issue? Is it okay to ascribe trauma as a situation which is been experienced by only the poor/low-income earners?
In a published article I outline 6 subtypes of aggression, resulting at times into violence. It is based in part on my experience as an AF ER medic during the Vietnam Conflict, and on my research on combat trauma.

I have been trying to find studies of adults who experienced adverse childhood events/childhood trauma that assess the link between ACEs and outcomes (bipolar disorder, PTSD/cPTSD, etc) using multiple measures to determine cause and effect.
A hypothetical example would be a study that assesses whether childhood emotional abuse/neglect (ACE) is associated with any 5-HTTLPR polymorphism (genetics), SLC6A4 hypermethylation (epigenetics), AND amygdala activity (fxn) in people with bipolar disorder (negative outcome) but not healthy controls who experienced similar severity of childhood emotional abuse/neglect
I know this is a huge lift and would require a somewhat large study but right now the story is missing a comprehensive view of the molecular and functional changes due to ACEs causes leads to negative outcomes.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give
Is there any score to predict massive transfusion i.e; >/=5 units RCC in case of GI bleed just like for trauma patients?
Interestingly we have seen a surprisingly high number of acute appendicitis patients following the end of the cover lockdown. Most of the patients are older than the typical age group ,elderly above 65 and a significant number with perforated appendix with or without abscess. Like trauma which is expected, there was a significant dip in emergency surgery cases during the active Covid lockdown period. Like to know if others had similar experiences?
Can anyone recommend a self-report instrument to map traumatic experiences? I am on the outlook for a reliable and valid questionnaire that is easy and relatively quick to answer, for persons that visit e.g. primary and/or secondary psychiatric care. Preferably available in Swedish too. It is to be used within the frame of a research project, where participants will answer multiple questionnaires.
Another question is whether you see a risk with using such an instrument, e.g. in terms of triggering past traumatic experiences.
Thank you!
How are these literary formulations themselves being reshaped along a sectarian/secular divide? In what capacity can nonviolent resistance through art combat sectarian violence on the ground?
Alright folks, I've been pondering this for weeks with no success so I need some guidance.
I want to measure whether prior trauma exposure has an effect on addiction treatment outcomes. Outcomes are measured using totals obtained at admission and discharge. I already ran a repeated measures t-test and know there are significant reductions in addiction symptoms between admission and discharge.
I am stumped as to how to factor trauma into this repeated measures design. Participants have a total trauma score (string variable), and I also have them grouped into trauma severity (mild, moderate, severe). But I can't figure out how to factor trauma into the above equation using it as a continuous variable OR as a categorial variable. I am open to both/either at this point.
So my question is, what kind(s) of tests can I run in SPSS to best determine if trauma impacts symptom changes between admission and discharge? Or if I split the file by group (trauma severity), is there a test to compare the repeated measure t statistics to know which group showed greater change?
I would welcome a general understanding of researchers arguments/opinions for and against the approval of "assisted dying" - I hold the belief that non factual 'conscience biased' arguments and assertions have no place in the end of life trauma often suffered by terminal patients am I right or am I wrong?
I am searching this measure:
Ford, J., Spinazzola, J., Putnam, F., Stolbach, B. C., Saxe, G., Pynoos, R., et al. (2007). Child Complex Trauma Symptom Checklist. Unpublished measure.
I saw it in Cloitre et al. (2009).
I am currently working with BIPOC population in urban centers. I would like to review research that is most relevant to my current needs. Thank You.
I am considering running a multiple regression on three independent variables: sex (Male=0, Female=1), experience level (0=novice teacher, 1=experienced teacher), and whether there is a history of trauma (0=no trauma, 1=trauma) to predict the secondary traumatic stress of teachers (continuous-level, scale score).
1. Can you run a multiple regression with multiple, unrelated categorical variables?
2. How would those results be interpreted?
3. Would a three-way ANOVA (2x2x2) be a better design?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Good afternoon,
Does anyone know of any articles that show correlation or study of the connection between childhood trauma and disability diagnosis in the educational setting? Trauma can be defined through experience (abuse), ACE scores, or PTSD diagnosis. It is my goal to create a meta-analysis synthesizing the information!

Hi All,
I am looking for recommended valid measures/questionnaires to measure a change in psychological flexibility. To be delivered pre and post intervention. Can either measure psychological flexibility as a whole, or measure the subcategories of the ACT hexaflex (or both). It is intended to be delivered to a population diagnosed with non-epileptic attacks.
All recommendations are warmly welcomed,
Thank you,
Charlotte

I am trying to discern whether, in the brain (structure & function) of people with bipolar disorder/MDD/schizophrenia who experienced childhood trauma, there are:
1. already differences in children's brain structure & function that trauma further modifies and the person develops a mental illness OR (genetics first then trauma)
2. trauma changes the structure and function of the brain that the child's genetics further modifies and the person develops a mental illness (trauma first then genetics)
Has anyone researched this & if so, can you please share your findings or references you know of?
I am investigating the influence of PTSD on the road traffic behaviour: as well as micro-reactions of drivers as well as instabilities of the traffic flow. I am working on the question: How to integrate a new driving function (L2 or L3) into a specific driving culture, which also has its traumatizations. So I need to be sure, that this new driving function isn´t triggering any trauma reactions, that could cause disturbances into the traffic flow.
I am inspired by your idea of a truck co-driver, as it could help to coregulate a trauma reaction.

Hello,
does anyone know whether specific cut-off scores for the German CTQ have been defined? As far as I am informed in Bernstein & Fink (1998) cutoff scores for "none to low", "low to moderate", "moderate to severe", and "severe to extreme" exposure are provided for each scale of the Englisch version (Van de Eede et al. 2012).
I have already checked these publications, but no cutoff scores were included for the German CTQ

I have always been concerned about the high prevalence of young children who are sexually abused every year. This increasing number of trauma and unnecessary assault has led me to think about why it exists in the first place. What would be the reasoning or purpose of an adult being sexually attracted to a young individual, especially if these children are not capable of sexually reproducing?
I am wanting to research and read up to date literature around CSA/trauma and soul loss in relation to Arts Therapy and Sandtray
In traumatic patients an initial approximation of the patient’s cardiovascular systolic blood pressure status can be obtained by palpating peripheral pulses. For example SBP must be more than 60 mm Hg for the carotid pulse to be palpable and more than 70 mm Hg for the femoral pulse. But in fact, SBP of our extremity major vessels are more than the aorta and its first branches. How can this be interpreted...?

Is anyone currently undertaking serious research into the psychological and group dynamic changes / damage which FGM may cause?
I know of one research finding
> Behrendt A, Moritz S. Posttraumatic stress disorder and memory problems after female genital mutilation. American Journal of Psychiatry 2005; 162:1000-1002
but there must surely be more recent work?
I'd like to learn about any / all such studies, anywhere, and am particularly interested in e.g. the ways FGM may itself alter responses to what might otherwise be effective interventions to bring this 'practice' to an end.
Many thanks,
Hilary

I want to study child trauma, with the end goal of not only working with traumatized kids but also teaching others how to respond to, recognize and 'handle' traumatized kids (e.g. cops, teachers, staffers at psych hospitals etc...). If that's the end goal, where should I start? What sort of literature is considered to be a staple in this field?
Hi Dr. Fallot,
Will you or Dr. Harris be updating your book "Using trauma theory to design service systems"? Our library carries it, but it's been almost 20 years since it was published and we wondered if there's anything more recent. Is "Trauma-informed Care" on the same topic? Sort of a replacement of the old book?
Thank you,

Kashmir Valley has been in total communication blockade since 5th August 2019. Non Resident Kashmiris ( NRK) living around the world are not able to speak to their families, older parents, or unwell relatives due to total and complete communication blackout, curfew and lack of news from local media.
I would appreciate if anyone know of any studies published in such circumstances looks at the psychological distress in those ( like NRKs here) who are not able to reach families and are constantly worrying because of not knowing and war like situation.
Any papers, articles or manuscripts will be appreciated .
I am conducting research on a family of children who have past trauma issues with the father of the unborn child.
I am interested in looking into the neuroethics of people who have suffered from severe and sustained trauma and/or neglect and getting them to consent to invasive neurological procedures. With a population where people have frequently adopted instant submission to authority as a survival mechanism, is consent possible? How do we make sure that any sort of procedure isn't somehow retraumatizing? How do we make sure that these people feel comfortable declining to do certain things or voicing their needs, if they have learned that it is dangerous to do so? Do we need to take a different approach or special considerations with trauma subjects than we do with other sorts of subjects? what would those considerations be? Do you personally feel that IRB boards, in general, have enough trauma literacy to understand the risks?
*This question is in reference to people who have NOT yet undergone trauma therapy. *
I'm happy to get anything from opinions, to references, to videos, and literature, any and everything... pertaining to this subject!
There is recent interest in detecting psychological emotions like trauma, stress in Social media.
There are two levels of detection, one at tweet level other at user-level.
Now a days using deep learning , many are solving user-level detection of stress. In this scenario , is there any chance of further improving tweet level stress detection or its usability? Can we say that the detection a t tweet level is obsolete?

I need this questionnaire for my research project which I am doing on retrospective reports about childhood trauma and adult mental health as in post traumatic stress symptoms.
I am working on epidemiological data using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire to look at adult outcomes after childhood trauma.
There is so much inconsistency in the use of terminology in the literature, which is making life a bit difficult! My general standpoint is that since the ACEs studies (Felitti and Anda, etc) ACEs refers to a broader set of experiences, while childhood trauma refers specifically to abusive and neglectful experiences, especially in the home.
I would like to be able to discuss how childhood trauma might have different/stronger/specific effects on outcomes (esp psychiatric) compared to the broader ACEs. I cannot, however, find any obvious literature comparing the two.
I wondered whether anyone knew of references which might help me put together a brief discussion on the advantages/disadvantages of using CTQ versus ACEs. This is aside from the obvious that ACEs capture a broader range of negative experiences. I suspect that CTQ captures experiences that are more damaging, especially in terms of interruption of attachment etc. I'd like to be able to back that up with published research though.
Any help or comments would be much appreciated! :)
Platelet transfusion? Desmopressin? rFVIIa? TXA?
Always more frequently in our hospital we have to treat traumatic brain injury in patients receiving antiplatelet medication.
I know there are no unanimously recommended guidelines.
A recent update of european research group on bleeding care in trauma (Spahn et al. Critical Care 2013; 17: R76 -http://ccforum.com/content/17/2/R76 ) recommended:
- to administer platelets in patient with substantial bleeding or intracranial hemorrhage who have been treated with antiplatelet agents (GRADE 2C).
- to administer desmopressin (0,3 mcg/kg) in patients treated with platelet-inhibiting drugs (GRADE 2C).
- to treat with platelet concentrations patient with continued microvascolar bleeding, if platelet dysfunction is documented (GRADE 2C).
Waiting for PATCH study (de Gans et al. BMC Neurology 2010, 10:19 -
http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2377/10/19 ), what is your experience about this clinical context? Have you ever used rFVIIa?
Do you measure platelet function in patients treated or suspected of being treated with antiplatelet agents?
Microtrauma is a general term given to small injuries to the body. The injuries mechanism may affect the management plans.
Is the mechanism of injuries in microtrauma similar to that of other traumas (i e macro or usual trauma)?
