UNLABELLED
Disasters can have wide-ranging effects on individuals and their communities. Loss of specific resources (e.g., household contents, job) following a disaster has not been well studied, despite the implications for preparedness efforts and postdisaster interventions.
OBJECTIVE
To provide information about the effects of loss on postdisaster distress, the present study assessed associations between disaster-related variables, including the loss of specific resources, and postdisaster distress.
METHOD
Random-digit dialing methodology was used to recruit hurricane-affected adults from Galveston and Chambers, TX, counties one year after Hurricane Ike. Data from 1,249 survivors were analyzed to identify predictors of distress.
RESULTS
Variables that were significantly associated with posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms included sustained losses, hurricane exposure, and sociodemographic characteristics; similar results were obtained for depressive symptoms.
CONCLUSIONS
Together, these findings suggest risk factors that may be associated with the development of posthurricane distress that can inform preparedness efforts and posthurricane interventions.
未加标签：灾害可能对个人及其社区产生广泛的影响。尽管对备灾工作和灾后干预有影响，但对灾后个人因特定资源（例如家庭用品、工作）损失而感到的痛苦还没有进行很好的研究。
目的：本研究旨在提供有关损失对灾后痛苦影响的信息，评估了与灾害相关的变量（包括特定资源的损失）与灾后痛苦之间的关联。
方法：采用随机数字拨号方法，在飓风过后一年，从德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿和钱伯斯县招募了受飓风影响的成年人。对 1249 名幸存者的数据进行了分析，以确定痛苦的预测因素。
结果：与创伤后应激障碍症状显著相关的变量包括持续的损失、飓风暴露和社会人口统计学特征；抑郁症状也得到了类似的结果。
结论：这些发现表明，与发展飓风后痛苦相关的风险因素可能会为备灾工作和飓风后干预提供信息。
