Given the need to identify psychological risk factors among traumatized youth, this study examined the family functioning of traumatized youth with or without PTSD and a nonclinical sample.
The Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales, second edition (FACES II; Olson, Portner, & Bell, 1982), scores of youth with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; n = 29) were compared with the scores of trauma-exposed youth without PTSD (n = 48) and a nontraumatized comparison group (n = 44). Child diagnostic interviews determined that all participants were free of major comorbid disorders.
The FACES II scores of the participants with PTSD were not significantly different from the scores of trauma-exposed youth without PTSD and the nontraumatized comparison group. FACES II scores were also not significantly different between the trauma-exposed youth without PTSD and the nontraumatized comparison group.
PTSD and trauma-exposure without PTSD were not associated with variations in the perception of family functioning as measured by the FACES II. (PsycINFO Database Record
鉴于需要识别受创伤青少年的心理风险因素,本研究考察了患有或未患有创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)的受创伤青少年以及一个非临床样本的家庭功能。
采用家庭适应性与凝聚性评估量表第二版(FACES II;奥尔森、波特纳和贝尔,1982年),将创伤后应激障碍(PTSD;n = 29)青少年的得分与未患PTSD的受创伤青少年(n = 48)以及未受创伤的对照组(n = 44)的得分进行比较。儿童诊断访谈确定所有参与者均无重大共病障碍。
患有PTSD的参与者的FACES II得分与未患PTSD的受创伤青少年以及未受创伤的对照组的得分无显著差异。未患PTSD的受创伤青少年与未受创伤的对照组之间的FACES II得分也无显著差异。
PTSD以及未患PTSD的创伤暴露与通过FACES II测量的家庭功能认知差异无关。(PsycINFO数据库记录)
