本研究以42名护理专业学生为研究对象，采用创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）信息加工模型和社会支持反向缓冲假说对创伤相关精神病学（TRS）的预测价值进行了对比和检验。参与者完成了几个匿名的自我报告的措施，创伤后应激障碍的症状，同伴的社会支持，情绪表达的态度。基于回归的路径分析不支持这一人群中的PTSD理论。创伤后应激障碍的路径模型在学生护理人员随后开发，表明与职责相关的创伤暴露，功能失调的同伴社会支持，和学生的情绪表达的消极态度之间存在直接的关系。这个新的模型解释了30%的学生护理人员的TRS的方差。
This exploratory study contrasted and tested the predictive value of the reverse buffering hypothesis of social support and the information processing model of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in an investigation of trauma-related symptomatology (TRS) in a single sample of 42 student paramedics. Participants completed several anonymous self-report measures of PTSD symptornatology, peer social support, and attitude toward emotional expression. Regression-based path analyses did not support either theory of PTSD in this population. A path model of PTSD in student paramedics was subsequently developed, indicating that a direct relationship exists between duty-related trauma exposure, dysfunctional peer social support, and students' negative attitudes toward emotional expression. This new model accounted for 30% of the variance in student paramedics' TRS.
