Risk and protective factors of post-traumatic stress disorder in the CLSA dataset
EF 2023-24
Résumé
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that results from severe adverse life events experienced by military personnel, and victims of trauma, among others. These individuals often suffer from mood disturbances and heavy drinking. In the CLSA dataset, we will describe the clinical characteristics of PTSD, including depression and alcohol use, and compare these characteristics among high-risk groups: veterans, individuals with traumatic brain injury, and those with childhood stressful life events. We will assess the effects of social support and physical activity on PTSD symptoms. We will also explore the impact of PTSD on daily functioning and healthcare utilization. The study proposed herein will generate valuable preliminary data for us to initiate a longitudinal study of PTSD in high-risk groups and ongoing genetic studies of PTSD. The data will also complement our ongoing studies of PTSD.
