本研究探讨青少年在2001年9月11日（9/11）袭击后的适应情况。一项基于网络的调查是在袭击后2周和7个月对全国青少年样本（N = 104）进行的。一位随机选择的家长也在7个月的评估中完成了一项调查。虽然受到的攻击是间接的，但超过一半的参与者感到受到威胁。青少年的创伤后应激症状与他们的急性应激症状、父母的痛苦、父母的应对建议、父母是否愿意讨论袭击以及与9/11相关的讨论没有帮助的报告有关。青少年的痛苦症状与精神健康问题史、急性压力症状和父母无法讨论攻击有关。
This study examined adolescents' adjustment following the attacks of September 11, 2001 (9/11). A Web-based survey was administered 2 weeks and 7 months postattacks to a national sample of adolescents (N = 104). A randomly selected parent also completed a survey at the 7-month assessment. Although exposure to the attacks was indirect, over half the participants felt threatened. Adolescents' posttraumatic stress symptoms were associated with their acute stress symptoms, parental distress, parental coping advice, parental availability to discuss the attacks, and reports that 9/11-related discussions were unhelpful. Adolescents' distress symptoms were associated with a history of mental health problems, acute stress symptoms, and parental unavailability to discuss the attacks.
