As a consequence of a terrorist attack, children may experience trauma-related internal and external reminders that are directly linked to their physical and psychological health. We assessed PTSD and trauma reminders in 58 school-age children three years after the terrorist attack in Beslan, Russia in 2004, as well as their association with degree of exposure, psychological distress and coping. Findings revealed a prevalence of situational trauma reminders associated with high levels of distress in more exposed children. The presence of PTSD was predicted by level of exposure to the attack, frequency of exposure to trauma reminders, and support seeking as a coping strategy. Findings are discussed in light of the socio-political climate in Beslan and distress experienced by the population three years after the attack.
由于恐怖袭击，儿童可能会经历与创伤相关的内部和外部提醒，这些提醒直接与他们的身心健康有关。我们评估了 2004 年俄罗斯别斯兰恐怖袭击三年后 58 名学龄儿童的创伤后应激障碍和创伤提醒，以及它们与暴露程度、心理困扰和应对方式的关系。研究结果显示，与更多暴露儿童的高困扰水平相关的情境创伤提醒的发生率较高。创伤后应激障碍的出现与袭击的暴露程度、创伤提醒的暴露频率以及作为应对策略的寻求支持有关。研究结果结合别斯兰的社会政治环境以及袭击发生三年后民众的痛苦经历进行了讨论。
