Earthquake Exposure Index for Youths and Child Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Reaction Index were administered to 1,169 children and 1,201 adolescents from two heavily impacted townships. Severity of posttraumatic stress reactions was found to vary by a “dose effect” of earthquake exposure. Variation in the prevalence of PTSD symptoms was found across age and gender groups. Younger children and females reported more PTSD symptoms. More adolescents disclosed restricted negative affects and guilty feelings, whereas younger boys presented such symptoms in a more extreme way. Given that age and gender show variable effects on post-traumatic symptoms developed, there may be a need to implement a broad disaster recovery project with periodic screenings as well as age-specific and gender-appropriate mental health program. © 2002, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
