Disasters, such as war, terrorism, and natural disasters, affect individuals, groups, and communities. Although the focus is often on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), it is only one of many potential responses to traumatic experiences. Fostering community and individual resilience can help mitigate the effects of disaster. Research, education, and early intervention are integral tools to inform an effective response. The Center for the Study of Traumatic Stress (CSTS) at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences ascribes to such a model in its approach. Recent studies confirm that appreciation of biology and its relation to trauma response are necessary to our understanding of trauma's effects on humans, including trauma-associated disorders, resiliency, and recovery.
战争、恐怖主义和自然灾害等灾难会影响个人、群体和社区。尽管人们通常关注创伤后应激障碍（PTSD），但它只是创伤经历众多潜在反应之一。培养社区和个人的复原力有助于减轻灾难的影响。研究、教育和早期干预是形成有效应对措施的重要工具。美国军医大学创伤应激研究中心（CSTS）在其方法中遵循这样一种模式。最近的研究证实，了解生物学及其与创伤反应的关系对于我们理解创伤对人类的影响至关重要，这些影响包括与创伤相关的疾病、复原力和恢复。
