Patterns and correlates of racial/ethnic disparities in posttraumatic stress disorder screening among recently separated veterans

Journal of Anxiety Disorders Sep 22, 2019

McClendon J, Perkins D, Copeland LA, et al. - Patterns and correlates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) screening across race/ethnicity and gender were determined in a sample of 9,420 veterans who were recently separated from the military. Researchers included veterans identified as White (n = 6,222), Hispanic/Latinx (n = 1,313), Black (n = 1,027), Asian/Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (n = 420) and multiracial (n = 438). Trauma exposure and PTSD were assessed with. Findings suggest a higher risk for PTSD among Black, Hispanic/Latinx, and multiracial veterans shortly after separation from the military. Elevated positive screening rates were observed to be correlated with sociodemographics, trauma exposure, stress and social support among all racial/ethnic groups except Black men and multiracial women.
