PSYCHOSOCIAL CONSEQUENCES OF DISASTERS

106名飞机失事、大规模谋杀和龙卷风的受害者 以前在急性期接受过采访的人[(快速反应 研究)]将在[三]年后进行跟踪。增加两百个 受试者是选定的未来灾难的[直接]受害者和200人 来自类似地点的[间接]暴露对象也将 在索引(活动后4-6周)和[在一周和三周]采访 几年[灾后]。该项目将由一个系统的 对康复过程和长期的纵向研究 灾难后的精神后果。此外，结合 来自几个不同国家的前瞻性急性和长期灾后数据 灾难环境(来自以前和未来的快速反应研究)将 允许解开模型中的无数变量的纠缠 灾难类型学和人类的压力体验。这些比较可以是 因为同一次采访，诊断性采访 附表/灾难补充资料(DIS/DS)已用于 研究，以及流行病学集水区(ECA)研究， 这将提供一般人口数据的来源。更好 理解灾民的需求和灾害类型 将为未来精心设计的干预计划提供基础 专门为人口需求量身定做的。

One hundred six victims of a plane crash, mass murders, and a tornado who were previously interviewed in the acute phase [(Quick Response study)] will be followed up at [three] years. Two hundred additional subjects who are [direct] victims of selected future disasters and 200 [indirectly] exposed subjects from similar sites will also be interviewed at index (4-6 weeks after the event) and [at one and three] years [postdisaster]. This project will consist of a systematic longitudinal study examining the course of recovery and long-term psychiatric outcome following disasters. In addition, combined prospective acute and long-term postdisaster data from several different disaster settings (from previous and future Quick Response studies) will permit disentanglement of the myriad of variables within the models of disaster typology and human stress experience. These comparisons can be made because the same interview, the Diagnostic Interview Schedule/Disaster Supplement (DIS/DS) has been used for all parts of the study, as well as for the Epidemiologic Catchment Area (ECA) Study, which will provide a source of general population data. Better understanding of the needs of disaster victims and of disaster typology will provide the basis for future well-designed intervention programs specifically tailored to the population's needs.
