The prevalence of exposure and the psychological impact of traumatic events were studied in 983 Israeli university students. The psychological effects of exposure to single versus multiple traumatic events, and the effects of trauma-related physical injury were also examined. It was found that 67% of the respondents reported having been exposed to at least one traumatic event. Of those exposed, 6% were diagnosed as having posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Men were more at risk for exposure, but women were more at risk for PTSD. Women and the physically injured showed more psychological distress following exposure. Being exposed to one type of traumatic event was associated with increased psychological distress, but being exposed to multiple types of traumatic events was associated with lowering of distress. The results are discussed in comparison with similar studies from the United States.
对983名以色列大学生进行了创伤事件暴露率及心理影响的研究。还考察了暴露于单一创伤事件与多重创伤事件的心理影响，以及创伤相关身体损伤的影响。结果发现，67%的受访者报告称至少经历过一次创伤事件。在这些经历过创伤事件的人中，6%被诊断患有创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）。男性遭受创伤事件暴露的风险更高，但女性患PTSD的风险更高。女性和身体受伤者在暴露于创伤事件后表现出更多的心理困扰。暴露于一种创伤事件会增加心理困扰，但暴露于多种创伤事件则与困扰程度降低有关。研究结果与美国的类似研究进行了比较讨论。
