Impaired social cognition and childhood trauma (CT) is associated with cortisol secretion. Higher hair cortisol levels and poorer theory of mind (ToM) were associated in adults with CT. CT is a significant moderator of the link between ToM and hair cortisol levels.

The NSESSS-PTSD is a brief nine-item test to measure after-effects of trauma. We have provided good psychometric qualities of the scale favouring its use in clinical settings. A total score of 16 or more can be regarded as having probable post-traumatic stress disorder.

TF-CBT is a recommended treatment for youth with PTSD. The ICD-11 introduced a new sibling disorder for Complex PTSD (CPTSD), but no studies have examined whether TF-CBT may be helpful for youth with CPTSD using a validated instrument. The results show that youth with CPTSD respond well to TF-CBT.

Evidence-based treatments for PTSD, such as CT-PTSD and EMDR, are under-utilized in routine clinical services. The use of CT-PTSD and EMDR in routine clinical service is associated with large reductions in symptoms for patients with PTSD. Patients with probable Complex PTSD have equal reductions in symptoms.

The current study aimed to investigate trauma type as a potential moderator of PTSD symptom networks, distinguishing between type I trauma (single event; sudden and unexpected, high level of acute threat) vs. type II trauma (repeated and/or protracted; anticipated) with regard to their index trauma. Findings suggest that the PTSD symptom network st...
