The course of PTSD symptoms among Gulf War veterans: a growth mixture modeling approach.
Relatively little is known about the course of PTSD symptoms over time following trauma exposure. Accordingly, this study utilized a specialized structural equation modeling approach, growth mixture modeling, to examine the trajectory of PTSD symptoms across three time points in a sample of Gulf War veterans (n at Time 1 = 2,949, n at Time 2 = 2,313, and n at Time 3 = 1,327). Results were most ...
متن کاملLatent Growth Mixture Models to estimate PTSD trajectories
S tatistical models to estimate individual change over time and to investigate the existence of latent trajectories, where individuals belong to trajectories that are unobserved (latent), are becoming ever more popular. Such models are called Latent Growth Mixture Models (LGMM; Muthén & Muthén, 2000) and are often applied to estimate posttraumatic stress (PTSD) trajectories across several month...
متن کاملUsing Bayesian statistics for modeling PTSD through Latent Growth Mixture Modeling: implementation and discussion
BACKGROUND After traumatic events, such as disaster, war trauma, and injuries including burns (which is the focus here), the risk to develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is approximately 10% (Breslau & Davis, 1992). Latent Growth Mixture Modeling can be used to classify individuals into distinct groups exhibiting different patterns of PTSD (Galatzer-Levy, 2015). Currently, empirical evi...
متن کاملLatent Growth Mixture Modeling: a Simulation Study
Latent growth curve modeling (LGM) combined with the latent classes (LGMM) in the SEM context, is the method under investigation in this study. This dynamic way of analyzing longitudinal data takes an increasingly central position in the social sciences, e.g. in psychology. Despite twenty years development of the theory behind the LGM and LGMM, these are novel methods in analyzing data in pract...
متن کاملDorte M . Christiansen ASD and PTSD in Rape Victims
In recent years, a number of studies have investigated the prediction of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) through the presence of acute stress disorder (ASD). The predictive power of ASD on PTSD was examined in a population of 148 female rape victims who visited a center for rape victims shortly after the rape or attempted rape. The PTSD diagnosis based solely on the three core symptom clus...
