A cross-sectional study was conducted among 286 Palestinian children 9-18 years of age and their mothers in the Gaza Strip. Traumatic events recollected by children living in areas of conflict, the prevalence of post-traumatic stress reactions and the relationship between children's and mothers' mental health were investigated. The Gaza Traumatic Events Checklist, Impact of Event Scale (IES) and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) were used to measure outcome. Children experienced on average four traumatic events; one-third reported significant post-traumatic stress reactions. IES scores were higher among girls and mothers' GHQ scores significantly predicted children's IES scores.
在加沙地带对286名9至18岁的巴勒斯坦儿童及其母亲进行了一项横断面研究。调查了生活在冲突地区的儿童所回忆的创伤事件、创伤后应激反应的患病率以及儿童与母亲心理健康之间的关系。使用加沙创伤事件清单、事件影响量表(IES)和一般健康问卷(GHQ)来衡量结果。儿童平均经历了四次创伤事件;三分之一的儿童报告有明显的创伤后应激反应。女孩的IES得分较高,母亲的GHQ得分显著预测了儿童的IES得分。
