Journal ArticleDOI

The epidemiology of traumatic event exposure worldwide: results from the World Mental Health Survey Consortium.

TL;DR: Exposure to interpersonal violence had the strongest associations with subsequent traumatic events, and limited resources may best be dedicated to those that are more likely to be further exposed such as victims of interpersonal violence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trauma exposure and posttraumatic stress disorder in a national sample of adolescents

TL;DR: Interventions designed to prevent PTSD in PTE-exposed youths should be targeted at victims of interpersonal violence with pre-existing fear and distress disorders, whereas interventions designed to reduce PTSD chronicity should attempt to prevent secondary PTE exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

How well can post‐traumatic stress disorder be predicted from pre‐trauma risk factors? An exploratory study in the WHO World Mental Health Surveys

TL;DR: A sensitive risk algorithm can be created using data collected in the immediate aftermath of TE exposure to target people at highest risk of PTSD, but validation of the algorithm is needed in prospective samples, and additional work is warranted to refine the algorithm.
