  • Title: [The relationship between experiential avoidance and posttraumatic symptoms following war trauma--a brief report].
    Author: Morina N.
    Journal: Psychother Psychosom Med Psychol; 2008 Feb; 58(2):69-71. PubMed ID: 17828688.
    Abstract:
    A large body of literature stresses the role of experiential avoidance as a developmental and maintenance factor of many forms of psychopathology including post-traumatic stress disorder. For the first time, the current study examined the relationship between experiential avoidance and war-related post-traumatic symptoms. 123 students in Kosovo who reported war-related experiences took part in this study. Results show that experiential avoidance was significantly correlated with post-traumatic symptoms above and beyond the number of traumatic experiences.
