Controlled studies examining the relationship between psychiatric disorders and war and other traumatic events are reviewed. Several studies have found a correlation between the severity of posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms and the degree of trauma. Other disorders associated with trauma include depression, substance abuse disorders, adjustment disorders, psychosomatic disorders, and antisocial behavior. No relationship has been found between trauma and subsequent violent behavior. The authors identify areas for further research, including examination of why the majority of persons exposed to trauma do not develop psychiatric illness.
回顾了关于精神障碍与战争及其他创伤性事件之间关系的对照研究。几项研究发现创伤后应激障碍症状的严重程度与创伤程度之间存在关联。与创伤相关的其他障碍包括抑郁症、物质使用障碍、适应障碍、心身疾病和反社会行为。未发现创伤与随后的暴力行为之间存在关联。作者确定了进一步研究的领域，包括研究为何大多数遭受创伤的人没有患上精神疾病。
