这项研究扩展了我们之前对美国越战时期遣返战俘回国后不久的幸福感预测因素的分析。近 30 年后,我们对 292 名越战时期被遣返的战俘进行了研究,其中包括人口因素、囚禁压力源和遣返心理健康与创伤后压力、焦虑和抑郁之间的关系。对于大多数人来说,症状在正常范围内,但少数人报告临床水平升高。被捕时的年龄和遣返时的创伤后应激症状可以预测所有三种长期心理健康结果。身体折磨也预示着长期的创伤后应激症状。研究结果强调了圈养的长期影响和显着的恢复能力。
This study extended our previous analyses of predictors of well-being shortly after homecoming among U.S. Vietnam-era repatriated prisoners of war. We examined associations of demographic factors, captivity stressors, and repatriation mental health with posttraumatic stress, anxiety, and depression nearly 30 years later in 292 Vietnam-era repatriated prisoners of war. For most, symptoms were within normal limits, but a substantial minority reported clinically elevated levels. Age at capture and posttraumatic stress symptoms at repatriation predicted all three long-term mental health outcomes. Physical torture also predicted long-term posttraumatic stress symptoms. Findings highlight both long-term effects of captivity and significant capacity for resilience.
